#the terror script

"Franklin smiles, as if at a favorite son. Gore’s face and build are indeed chiseled in sharp angles, honed by Victorian virtues. Fitzjames feels the spotlight dim over his own head." INSANEEEE must the terror script do me like this truly...

Hartnell sets the gun to his shoulder, calms his mind, and gets ready to fire. He’ll only have one shot, so he must make it count--for the men, if not for himself. And in this moment, he understands: the opportunity death gives us is to be closer, not further apart.

BABY BOY!!!! BEST BOY!!!!

THE TERROR ▸ 1.10 we are gone

crozier is realizing he is not the hero of this story, but its antagonist. a profound unrest is beginning for him, a debt he will need to make right somehow. crozier looks at silna, who discreetly and very firmly shakes her head: tell him nothing. she is protecting him, even now.

Reading terror episode scripts and the deleted scenes got me clocking in for a shift at the killing myself factory what do you MEAN Stanley sees a vision of his daughter running through the carnivale tent after he finds out about the lead 😭what the fuck is that Dave 😭😭

Old piece of art

I’ll forever miss you, twitter terror script. It’s the end of a beautiful beautiful era. Not to sound sappy, but terror script was an example of trying to maintain the legacy of a piece of art/media people love and appreciate.

I hope this fandom continues to live on!

you know the terror's characters are based on real people because otherwise no one in their right mind would write a serious conversation between two characters named sir john, in which they discuss the fate of a third character, also named sir john

THE TERROR (2018) S01E09 "The C, The C, The Open C"

If we are to deposit anything with a view to return at some later date, it will be things, not men. I'd rather we leave our tents behind and sleep two to a sack, like the orphans we are, than leave one man alone with last burdens. And I speak not only of James. I'll not leave any one of you alone either.

the terror script has so many little details in it. recent example i just noticed:

crozier says his line about a ship being a confessor, and then he "...shuts the cubby. When he does, he does *not* see a small set of freshly carved initials in the corner of the lid: 'E.C.' Someone's done this recently."

the ship is hickey's confessor just as much as it is crozier's. oughh

I love learning that some of that wardroom scene with crozier and jfj was improvised now. I always thought the way jared said "I was, in fact, ordered" was very interesting and low-key a little broken from the scene and it's like yes queen your eyes did not fail you now as they have never failed you that shit was on the fly

THE TERROR ▸ 1.10 we are gone

lady silence watches crozier go to each of the dead bodies here to check who it is, and close their eyes.

rewatching ep 1 of the terror and i love that thing they do a couple times on the ship where they start a scene with the camera outside of the room the characters are in, and we can hear them speaking to each other but we can't fully see them, and the camera moves as we listen to them talk, getting closer to being able to see them. and it's so unsettling for some reason, especially since you know it's a horror show, and your brain is just going "what am i going to see, what is going on over there" and almost always nothing is revealed once the camera reaches the room, it's just men having a conversation. but the fact that it's *hidden* from you creates this anticipation. idk if it's just a cool cinemographic way to create tension, or emphasize the lack of privacy in these tight quarters, or if it's like about Officers Country, and how when the regular men aren't allowed in those spaces, they're also going to be imagining the possibilities of what they aren't being allowed to see.

but anyway the fact that they introduce Francis and Jopson in that way is insane. Two men, mostly obscured behind a door, standing close and facing each other, one is doing something with his hands. They speak while the camera slowly approaches and finally reveals that Jopson's just repairing his shirt, nothing to see here. And then the "is there anything special you require, sir?" as Jopson bends down to bite the string off Francis' sleeve. insane!!!!??
