Tiny Review: Humane 2024. Intriguing mix of human psychology and environmental message.
I went into this with low expectations. I don’t particularly enjoy horror. But this pretty good, at least up until the end. And it isn’t really that horrible, more Purge-like.
Great characterizations. Intriguing premise. Good setups, tension, and turns. Recommended.
Humane is a 2024 horror thriller film directed by Caitlin Cronenberg, and written and produced by Michael Sparaga. It stars Jay Baruchel, Emily Hampshire, Sebastian Chacon, Alanna Bale, Sirena Gulamgaus, Uni Park, Enrico Colantoni, and Peter Gallagher.

A little announcement: first of all, thank you so much for 1000 followers! I can't believe this many people like what I do. Second of all, you'll notice my content is going to change a little. I have dysthymia (persistent depressive disorder) and I'm in the autism spectrum, so I've been literally struggling since I was 13. But now for the first time I'm doing better. I stopped self h*rming, and I'm on a few less pills. I found my passion: psychology. I plan to major in it, then get my doctorate and specialise in cognitive behavioural therapy. I'm really excited and happy for the first time since forever. So you won't see depressive or sad content in my account, I'll start posting more positive stuff, study with me or university inspiration. So if you feel like that doesn't vibe with you, you can unfollow me, I'll totally understand. But sometimes we need to get worse in order to get better. I hope you too can get better. Tumblr is therapeutic when you're feeling low but sometimes it's time to move on. I feel like I have to. So you'll decide if you want to still follow me on my journey to becoming a psychologist. Thank you all girls!

No but like. It all circles back to that damn mountain with the lighthouse over it in the DOW.
Kevin got there way back, before Strexcorp and before the Congregation. There's an abandoned settlement somewhere on that mountain, and there are things drawn on its walls. Triangles, symbols. Clearly things related to the Smiling God. Before Night Vale, Kevin somehow ended up there, he learned about the Smiling God and the Centipede and he came back to Desert Bluffs with that religion, and having written books about it.
This isn't stated clearly, but I think Kevin was actually the first human (if the masked army doesn't count as such) in the DOW. I'd say he was the one who left those inscriptions on the walls.
Then, all the Dog Park stuff happens in Night Vale. Dana goes, then Strexcorp tries to invade Night Vale. Why do they want to colonize it? That's right, because of their corporate ideology and their religion. And that religion originated from a creature in the DOW.
Then Carlos ends up there and gets Trauma. He goes back to Night Vale and obsessively researches about it so no one will be trapped there again. Which originates more trouble. He stops after the events of It Devours! and settles down for a while, but when Janet Lubelle brings back his Trauma he decides to fucking restart his research.
The plot of WTNV can't not be related to Carlos because, hello, Cecil has made so much of his program about him since episode one. And, ever since he started his research on the House That Does Not Exist, he's pulled back over and over again to the DOW. It's like he wasn't only physically limited to leave that damn mountain with that godforsaken lighthouse. Emotionally, he's there, too. Always trying to leave that mountain, but every time he goes in the contrary direction, he ends up coming again and again to that mountain.
He's tired but restless, just like in the DOW where he didn't feel nor hunger nor thirst and his phone was always almost fully charged. He's still restless about the DOW, and he's trying to leave so badly but it pulls him over and over and over and over again, back to that stupid fucking mountain, back to that creepy lighthouse, back to the blinking light on top of it.
And that, that's painful. Gets me every time.

Finally, my OG emo boy! I should have drawn him in a The Smiths t-shirt but NIN is sooo much easier. Yes I have drawn Alpheus in more or less this exact same outfit. Don't @ me, it's easy and I could not be bothered drawing a second pair of boots. Maybe both the Aronnax and Alpheus' squid sub just have floors designed for wetsuit boots, who knows! Also I didn't bother flipping his hair around like I did for Alpheus because at this point Cain does not care about how he looks. and I also just could not be bothered.
Cain: Yeah so I have a job now, but the bloke who arranged it for me warned me that my boss would absolutely feed me to the sharks if I did anything to her daughter
Finn: lmao, what's your job anyway?
Cain: I'm interning with Kaiko Nekton on the Aronnax
Finn: [✓ seen]
Cain was the edgy bad-boy love interest in my favourite book series in high school, and much like with Tallulah, I have just been sticking him wherever he fits in everything else I've gotten into since then. I've even managed to fit the two of them in a HTTYD AU that I never got around to writing.
Anyway he's the other friend mentioned in Finn's bio, the one whose mother walked out on him. He's the youngest of three brothers, and about a year older than Finn. The two of them wavered between inseperable and estranged depending on how recently Finn had talked to his mother and therefore how jealous Cain was feeling about her continued if distant presence in the younger boy's life. Later, once Tallulah showed up and befriended Finn, Cain alternated between being jealous that she spent time with the younger boy and desperate for an in with her because he himself continually managed to offend her.
He eventually manages to win her over with Finn's help, as just a friend, but his ex takes offense to that and turns out to be a far better shot than her mother was when she was chasing after Cain. Finn had already made plans to leave Heckmondwhite at that point, but Tallulah gets pulled from school after being shot leaving Cain with no friends in town and only Finn messaging him. He is not doing so great emotionally at this point, and his father manages to get a friend (Tallulah's dad, who canonically is something of a naturalist and studies mollusks) to figure out a way to get him out of town. Cain does not realise his father's friend is Tallulah's dad because the man is built like comic book wolverine and Cain was picturing someone more along the lines of Loki.
Kaiko agrees to take on an intern because she could use some help keeping her workspace in order and doesn't want to force her kids to do it and end up making them hate the lab. Someone who signed up for it, however, is free game. She's not exactly happy that Liam told the kid about the assault charge, but she did kind of owe the man a favour after how often he covered for her in Uni.
