Thinking about how Barry is a horror show. Bill Hader drawing you in with dark comedy just to shatter the fantasy, trapping you into a lynchian tragedy about the nature of violence and all its forms. The dark spector of abuse will follow you everywhere and affect everyone you touch, and if youre not careful, you become that spector. Whats worse, what makes you ache and greive, is what these people, these characters you can't help but See and Understand, tell themselves to justify trapping themselves and others in this continuous cycle. Glorified war stories written with the blood of occupied foreign territories. Media and its role in facilitating violence. Guns sold across the toys aisle. Bronze effigies, emerald fantasies, false memories, desolate families. This show is terrifying its a ghost haunting my TV and I want to shake Bill Hader upside down so I can collect the fucjed up ideas that fall from his pockets like candies
#im not lying when i say that fucking#scene. where were in hanks pov listening to the slow. desperate. revolting. slaughter of his friends on the other side of that wall#eaten by this beast unleashed by an invisible laughing authority#and we just sit there with him in this dark room listening to his friends be torn to shreds while they beg for their lives.#what haunting audio. ill be thinking about if until i die#and i love it#barry#also i cried when this apepared in his nightmares but barry was in that room eitb him chained and helpless#and he woke up and said. i think i understand him now.#god jesus. its a cycle innit. like love but worse#ok sorry i need to go and do somwthing
