EuroTrip | Part 14 | Sweet Esposito

#FM24 #EuroTrip Part 14: Sweet Esposito. Trebor Mahtal departs Serbia for the 8th club on his European adventure and ends up in Slovakia. He leads @SKSlovan to a dominant league effort and a surprise exciting European run. Read here:

Setting out on this EuroTrip adventure, Trebor Mahtal had dismissed chances of European success with teams outside the continent’s top seven leagues. Yet contrary to all expectations, he’d won the Europa Conference League with Dynamo Kiev then the Europa League with Crvena zvezda. But after two successful years in Serbia, the Zambian manager decided it was time for a new challenge. Mahtal had…

Southbound (2015)

At a few points during Southbound, we see televisions showing 1962's Carnival of Souls - a film that really made an impact on me. Like Carnival of Souls, this anthology film also has a certain unsettling quality about it. We’re used to seeing bad people getting punished in horror movies. Or if the protagonists aren’t bad, they’re drawing evil towards themselves because of some sort of transgression. That isn’t really the case here - our protagonist just wandered into the wrong place by accident. It’s an effective way to make your skin crawl, even when all of the vignettes aren’t of equal quality.

The Way Out

Mitch (Chad Villella) and Jack (Matt Bettinelli-Olpin) are on the run from mysterious, floating creatures that resemble skeletal angels of death. Driving along a seemingly endless highway, they stumble upon a run-down gas station. No matter how hard they try to leave, they always end up back at the same spot.

There are two kinds of terrors in this story, one of which will only be explained (kind of) much later in the program. The Way Out, is full of mysteries. Mitch and Jack are bloodied and injured. What happened to them? Mitch looks at a photograph of his daughter. What happened to her? What are those creatures in the distance? What do they want? We get answers to some (but not all) of these questions in time. The frazzled characters don't have a moment to spare so it’s ok that we don’t sit down to have a bunch of exposition dumped on our heads.

Siren

Bandmates Sadie (Fabianne Therese), Ava (Hanah Marks) and Kim (Nathalie Love) are forced to pull over when their van’s tire goes flat. Stranded in the middle of nowhere, they accept help from a friendly but off-putting couple (Susan Burke and Davey Johnson).

While the stories in Southbound might be a mixed bag, all of them effectively tap into real-life fears. Quickly, Sadie and the audience realize there’s something very wrong with the couple who offered to help them. Going from a situation that’s bad to another that’s even worse is scary. On top of that, this short story is genuinely eerie, with several people offhandedly mentioning the band’s late friend Alex when they should have no knowledge of her. As the story wraps up, it becomes very conventional but before then, you’re invested in the story despite the protagonists leaning a bit too much towards the “unlikeable” side.

The Accident

While driving down a dark highway, Lucas (Mather Zickel) is talking to his wife Claire on the phone when he hits a young woman. Lucas calls 911 but has no idea where they are so he puts the woman in the back of his car and drives until he finds a hospital. The building appears abandonned, which means the woman's life is in his hands.

This story may not sound particularly scary but if you were in Lucas' shoes, it would be pretty stressful. The accident is his fault. He wasn’t paying attention while driving. When he calls 911, he has no idea where they are so the dispatcher gives him instructions, which he follows as best he can. He finds a hospital. Suddenly, there’s hope. The hospital is deserted. Hope is dashed away. Something is very wrong here. Unfortunately for Lucas, he can’t investigate. The woman is dying right now. All he can do is try to follow the instructions he’s hearing over the phone and save her life. Where it goes from there isn’t quite “keep you up at night screaming” but it’s unsettling and smartly, the film doesn’t explain too much. Out of all the segments, this one's the best.

Jailbreak

Danny (David Yow) enters a bar and forces the patrons inside to lead him to his missing sister, Jesse (Tipper Newton). Though the people holding her hostage look human… they aren’t.

Ambiguity can be nice but Jailbreak takes it too far. Eventually, you just stop caring. Escaping from the town with Jesse is not going to be as easy as Danny thought but why? Is it because he’s wandered into some sort of Hell? If yes, how did he manage that without noticing? If this isn’t Hell, why is it so hard for them to leave? The segment has a strong conclusion but I’m not sure if it makes up for the rest.

The Way In

Jem (Hassie Harrison) and her parents, Cait and Daryl (Kate Beahan and Gerald Downey) are enjoying their last weekend together before she leaves for college when three masked men break into their home.

The Way In made me realize how simultaneously effective and tired the “home invasion” genre is. Strangers breaking into your home and attacking you is a primal fear. At the same time, this story is so short it feels pointless. There isn’t time for character development or anything except for the horror of the situation, making The Way In way too familiar. Things become a little different towards the end when there’s a reveal about this story. Unfortunately, the twist comes out of nowhere. It’s too bad we're left with a bad taste in our mouths before the credits roll but there was also nowhere else the story could be placed in this anthology.

Unlike most anthology films, Southbound does not have a proper wraparound story. Instead, we begin a new tale when a character we already know is spotted by someone or appears in the background of the next story. It’s an interesting tactic that doesn’t quite work. Partially because we suddenly have people in whatever Hell they were wandering through now co-existing with people in completely different situations and also because it winds up spoiling the ending of one of its stories. it is an interesting tactic though. It’s interesting enough that I think other movies should try it. In the end, the successful stories in Southbound make it worth watching. (November 12, 2022)

What's Out This Week? 10/18

Y'all coming to our Furry Nite event this weekend??

Beneath The Trees Where Nobody Sees #1 - Patrick Horvath

Don’t. Murder. The locals.

This is small-town serial killer, upstanding citizen, and adorable brown bear Samantha Strong’s cardinal rule. After all, there’s a sea of perfectly ripe potential victims in the big city just beyond the forest, and when you’ve worked as hard as Sam to build a cozy life and a thriving business in a community surrounded by friendly fellow animal folk, warm décor, and the aroma of cedar trees and freshly baked apple pie…the last thing you want is to disturb the peace.

So you can imagine her indignation when one of Woodbrook’s own meets a grisly, mysterious demise—and you wouldn’t blame her for doing anything it takes to hunt down her rival before the town self-destructs and Sheriff Patterson starts (literally) barking up the wrong tree.

Cyberpunk 2077: XOXO #1 - Bartosz Sztybor & Jakub Rebelka

Beneath the skin, flesh, and cyberware lies a beating heart--and only two things can stop a heart from beating: love and death. It's gang on gang violence as the Maelstroms target the Moxes for an ambush. Is a bloodbath underway or could this be love at first sight?

Studios' Pen & Ink line, series artist Ron Garney brings some method to the mayhem with brand new exclusive commentary!

It's young Gnash's first Halloween in Manhattan, and you're invited to come along as he heads out to find friends on the one night of the year when Gargoyles can roam the city unbothered!

Drumroll please...In Misty's first comic appearance, everypony's favorite blue pony is in Maretime Bay for a sleepover with the Mane 5! But when everypony wakes up...all the color is gone!

This year we are celebrating the 10th anniversary of the #nfcdab project, which could not exist without the trust of the artists. The idea was born at a time when not everyone was aware of the coming revolution in the reception of digital content caused by the advent of smartphones. In 2014, QR codes or NFC tags were a technology on the verge of becoming commonplace, and the same was true of wireless Internet and unfettered access to the Internet. 10 years later, we are in very different times. That's why we trusted the idea of DIWO, which is an important element of this - let's not be afraid to use the word: "research" project. The whole concept would not have been possible thanks to the help from browserbased.org and noemata.net in the persons of Zsolt Mesterhazy and Bjørn Magnhildøen, I must also mention Brian Khuu being our Australian liaison to the antipodes, and I want to thank the many people who have helped us over the years in organizing our shows: Konstantina Mavridou, Radovan Misovic aka Rad0, Tibor Horvath, Florian Kuhlmann.
