I like horror movies. So when I write, I like to write horror stuff. I've taken to writing out note while I watch so I can keep more ideas, and in general study more horror.
Here are the notes I jotted while watching Phenomena.
Movie notes
Phenomena, Dario Argento
never before seen
Bus in the swiss alps okayyyy. DAMN this bih got left!!! they dgaf about anything. and its getting dark.
TITLE CARRRRRDDD
these conifers are so lush.
how tf did they make straight hair so 80s and fried. Something is chained in this rural house.. and nobody locks doors? breaking and entering!!! LMAO WHAT? it broke the eye screws off the wall.
WHAATATTTTT THE CHAINS ARE ALIVE?? THE FURNITURE TWEAKIN, SHE GOT STABBED IN DA HAND. RIP frizzy blond girl, we hardly knew ya.
Also, slow motion glass smash, flying scissor kill? Dario u crazy.
MONKYYYY! MONKY W/ A KNIFEEEEEEEE WHAT??
A bald nigga is chatting w/ some other men. He owns the monkey , the knife was a letter opener. I think the bald dude is an entomologist (? bug science). The other men are probably detectives. They're asking about flies for forensic reasons. A head was found in a lake and now they need to date the decomp.
OK so the main girl is going to boarding school in Switzerland, that why we in the alps. Her father is some rich/famous guy and is out of the WHOLE CONTINENT and can't even be called. father of the year! *eye roll*
The lady MG is in the taxi with stared tweaking cuz of a fuckin bee. I hate ppl like that. MG wouldn't let her kill it cuz she like bugs.
She's at the school and apparently the prestigious Richard Wagner girls college only has one safe building, and she can NEVER go to them. ok.
Her roomie is a French girl named Sophie. She smokes cigs because she's French I guess.
DAMN MAIN GIRLS BITCH MOM RAN OUT ON HER! can't have shit in Italy. lmao why Sophie start talking about there's totally a killer at the school. 1st day and we getting punked.
okok I wasn't paying enough attention. I stopped to google it. The MG's name is Jennifer, and she's American. so more accurately "can't have shit in America". Also she sleeps in her jewelry.
WAIIITT THE MUSIC IN THIS MOVIE IS CRAZYYYYYYY OKAAAYYYYYYYY, I knew that one song 'Sleepwalking' but I didn't know abt the rest of the soundtrack.
Jen is having a fucking premonition nightmare, and walking around. SIDE TRACK there are so many exotic animals in this movie. Fruit bats??????? in the belfry? in the alps?
OMG SOME GIRL GOT STABBED THRU THE MOUTH YOOOOO. THE PREMONITION.
she was sleepwalking in the street and got hit by a car in the fakest way ever. LOL. waaaiit the monkey??? she got lost in the woods and that monkey found her??
She's chatting with the entomologist now. He says she reminds her of his now deceased secretary. He let her borrow the secretary (Greta?)'s old coat.
next scene and she's getting an EEG? her brain is braining.
next scene and she's trying and failing to call her father. also some dumb bitches are shit talking her for sleepwalking. Sophie and Jen promised to lock the room in so Jen would sleepwalk and now she's sneaking out for some hoe'd out boy. FML!
The news is playing on the dorm TV. The broadcast is about a missing Gisela Sulzer, and they're interviewing the family.
Back to Sophie, SHE STOLE JEN'S SWEATER. and her boyfriend was the mfer who hit Jen with the car?! World too small. I'm stressed.
Jen is sleepwalking again. WAIT she snapped out of it. Her pajama set is cute.
Jen heard Sophie scream from wat out past the lawn. THE music playing as she goes to see wtf happened is wayy too energetic. Jen deadass just followed a firefly and found a glove in a picker bush. FAKE FAKE.
She showed the glove to the entomologist, because there were maggots in it (also the maggot told her about the body but you can't say that to people). btw I need to comment on how caked up that chimp is holy shit. is that normal? yuck bro.
Jen just told the entomologist about the firefly! is she gonna mention the maggot too? nani the fuck? Ok she didn't but mang.
next scene and the girls at her school are acting dumb. talking shit about her to the teachers and reading her mail and shit. Do they not let her mail through? wtf? I swear these hoes do no schoolwork.
Jennifer is totally the girl they based the girl from clocktower off of.
Jen is doing nut ass ESP shit and The school windows are covered in flies. LMAO THE BITCH TEACHER CALLED HER BEELZEBUB, GET REAL.
she's speaking with the entomologist again, and in another banger outfit. White button up, white skirt, white tie, dark loafers. The maggots are of a species that only feasts on humans, a sarcophagus fly. Idk if those are real.
Wow the entomologist really believes in her ability! he's asked her to take a fly with her and to have it lead her where the body was. She's keeping the fly in a wood framed, wire box.
The fly started tweaking at that spot where the 80s hair girl got stranded. That weird haunted house is visible in the near distance.
The fly is leading Jen towards it. Someone in a pine green car was watching her from down the driveway. In the house she finds the chains, and a pile of old toys covered in plastic.
In a closet there is a cobweb covered shelf with some large rolled papers, so Jen pulls up a stool to grab stem but she still can't reach, so she jumps a few times. She succeeds in grabbing the first, but in jumping to grab the second, she causes the wooden floor to break, and the stool to tip. So now she's hanging from the top shelf like she's on a cliff, AND THE THE SHELF BREAKS! IDK why she wouldn't let go, because she was only a foot from the ground. She fell kinda hard and the shelf hit her! BRUH.
Then she gets white man jump scared. and he's asking her why she's in the house and being a dick about it. so she broke away and ran. Left the fly though. I think he is a grounds keeper.
AYO THERE WAS A ROTTING HAND UNDER THAT FLOORBOARD????
some other blondish man is asking the balding groundskeep- the blonde man is a cop. he was asking about the state of the house as it was for sale, but i guess he was trying to see about the previous tenant.
The monkey got locked out of the house. someone who shouldn't be there is inside. AYO THE KILLER??????? THE SCIENTIST GOT STABBED WTFFFFFFFF. CHIMP AVENGE HIM!
SHE ON THE KILLER CAR, GET HIMMMM.
ALL THE COPS IN THE COUNTRY ON THAT MAN LAWN RN!!
we back to that cop from the beginning. at the mental ward saying the person he's looking for broke INTO the ward. HUH?
They want to put Jen in the ward??? Can some bitch school do that? without parental consent??? The monkey is still on the loose. Poor baby. SHE FOUND A KNIFE????? (the monkey is a girl, her name is actually Inga lol.)
So Jen highkey ran away and she still having a hard time trying to contact. The bee scared lady (a caretaker?) is with her at a bank, she needs money and she's kinda stranded. ok so her representative(?) is letting her stay at her place until her flight tomorrow. The lady's house is dark and creepy. She has a big ass toddler sized puppet.
WHAT IS THIS LADY'S PROBLEM???? she's so argumentative. She claims that Jen is coming down with fever so she wants her to take a pill and she's being such a weirdo about it. BITCH EWWW WHY SHE GOT MAGGOTS ON THE SOAP MANE WTF. AND THE HAND TOWEL. AW HELLLLL NAW THIS WHOLE BATHROOM INFECTED, GET ME OUT OF HEREEEEE.
The fever pills might be poison, and Jennifer is making herself throw up in the sink. That bee hater bitch is cursing at her from outside the bathroom door.
IS SHE THE KILLER?? MANE WTF GOING ON! SHE JUST HIT JEN IN THE BACK OF THE NECK. AND UNPLUGGED THE PHONES.
there are worms all over this nasty house. The doors and windows are covered and shut, there was a mystery man yell from somewhere. Jen is stood precariously on the BACK of a chair, against a door, trying the grab the phone through a tiny window and she dropped it. Ok now she went through that window and into a hole in the floor. She's crawling through a tunnel. cave diver moment. WHAT THE HELLLL THE MOLE MEN!!!!!! THE GOT GRABBED WHAT TFHE FUCK THERES A PIT. THERES A PIT OF WET CORPSE WATER?????????????? AND SOME MAN CHAINED UP??? THAT BITCH IS THE KILLER!!!!!
That man broke free, his bloody hand slipped through his cuff and he's beating the crazy hoe with his chain! Jennifer got out of the corpse pool and went down a hall. there's some crying kid in a room by himself? IT'S A DEMON. HE HAS THE FACE OF A FISH. JEN!!!!!!!!!
HE'S TRYING TO KEEP HER ON THE PROPERTY. HE SLASHED THE MOTOR BOAT MOTOR BUT THEN THE INSECTS STARTED JUMPING HIM! HE'S MELTING! OMG.
THE BOAT EXPLODED. CAN JEN CATCH A BREAK? WTF THE DEMON BOY IS STILL ALIVE?? LET GO NIGGA! GAADAMNNNNNNN. WANNA BE JASON.
She's coming to shore, and the shot composition is really good. Very open and lonely looking. Good colors.
HOLY FUCK THE MAN SHE'D BEEN TRYING TO CONTACT FINALLY ARRIVED AND HE GOT DECAPITATED! THE CRAZY HOE WAS ALIVE AND THEN INGA STARED STABBING THAT HOE. THE CHIMP EVENT.
IN THE END IT JUST 2 GIRLS WHO GOTTA STICK TOGETHER. YEAH ONE IS A CHIMP BUT WHATEVER. HOOOLLLYY SHIIIIITTTT.
