a few DRUNK BONERS posted:Animated video, creepy. A man drives a truck into the woods with his dog. Strange things start happening to him. He goes fishing and catches half a fish. His truck breaks down. His dog runs away into the woods. The last scene is him hiding in a stove surrounded by elves (scary elves). I remember this, it was legitimately frightening. I recall it being on ebaums world or albino black sheep etc. There were a couple of others I think made by the same person. I'll have a proper look for it tonight when I'm not phone posting. E: I should read replies first.

I posted this in the Identify A Movie For Me thread last year. Breitbart Is Rightbart posted:I'm gonna ask for another one. It was suggested that I was looking for the Tales From The Darkside episode A New Lease On Life but this isn't it. Here's a reply that shed some more light on it that I'd forgotten until just now. SolarFire2 posted:I can't tell you the source but I remember very clearly that the hotel/apt. complex/building the story was set in was called the Saint George. I only know this because this was on TV when my family was on a road trip staying at a motel in St. George, Utah. I always remembered the coincidence. E: nevermind the second post, the Saint George lead was back to A New Lease On Life. Kosmo Gallion fucked around with this message at 12:54 on Aug 6, 2019 |

An April fools prank by a UK PlayStation magazine (I think PlayStation Plus, which was also part 'lads mag') in the late '90s for a first person "shooter" called Scum. Supposedly it would use live actors and the player could murder them using a vast array of weapons (hammer, chainsaw, drill, rifle) and torture bound and gagged women. It's 'graphics' were just the editorial staff being killed with really lame MS paint blood edited onto it but enough people believed the game was real to write in requesting the release date. I'd love it if somebody has a scan of this.

A YouTube playlist from about five years ago that had some cool songs on it. I think it was called "something different" and had Lake of Fire by Nirvana and Cleaning Up My Mess by Blank Realm. I'm don't know if there's any way to check if a video is on a specific playlist.

A band of five or six people (male and female) from the 70s/80s who all wore masks. Their identity has never been revealed. I read the Wikipedia article on them in 2005 and have never been able to find them since. They would work in complete isolation and their land line had no ring tone, they'd organise their manager to call them at a specific time and they'd answer. Maybe that last sentence is something Kraftwerk used to do though.

Section 9 posted:I would like to know what the hell was up with hatshoe. It was a website with some scans of handwritten pages like a journal. It was maybe an ARG, or just some weird art thing. It seemed like it came out of nowhere with no purpose, and then disappeared with no fanfare, but everything about it was bizarrely intriguing to me. I really wish it had been "solved" or would just love to know what the creator was going for. Same but for Neurocam.

Way back in 2002/2003 I used to read fan scripts of horror or sci fi films, there are two that I remember and would love to see if they were actually good. One was a Halloween sequel. It was well put together with the twist being that Michael Myers was not actually the killer, it was a journalist in disguise, except later on Michael actually turns up and murders everyone. The second was a sequel to Return of the Jedi that I think I downloaded from Kazaa or Lime Wire. I've forgotten most of the details but it has a cliffhanger ending where Luke, Leia and Han are all inside an asteroid with the revived Sith cult hurtling towards a sun.

A website that I'm sure I was linked to from these forums. It has chat logs of a conversation between some dweeb guy who keeps posting some type of emoji after everything he says and a girl he likes. I can't actually remember anything else, just the guy posting something like this (●´ω`●) all the time.

The knight fighting the worm on page 10 is pretty hardcore though. Goddamn this brought back memories, thanks. I had this as a kid as well as two others. One was a similar book of monsters where the depiction of Scylla was something terrifying, like the scary face from the Fright Night poster except dozens of them attached to one body. The second was a book on paranormal which had pages on ESP, Pyramid power and a chilling illustration of mother Shipton.

Not really a white whale but this thread has been an awesome place to find lost internet stuff. I remember this story from a long time ago but I can't pinpoint a year, I'd guess roughly in the late '00s. A musician in a metal band thought he was being spied on and thought his band mates were stealing his DNA. Then he mysteriously died a year later, possibly by suicide. He thought his band members were government spies or something and they were plotting to kill him or set him up for being a paedophile and they stole his sock that he had used to clean up his own semen. He was possibly schizophrenic and put a massive rant on a MySpace blog or perhaps YouTube videos. A year later he had a suspicious death. He was possibly a guitarist for this band. I'm sorry this is so vague and possibly inaccurate, it literally just popped into my head.

Martyrs crosses a few different genres. Revenge flick, torture film, small elements of J-horror and finally existential nightmare. It's an amazing and clever film everybody should watch but I absolutely do not want to see it ever again.

A YouTube video titled "a Dragon visits the Earth' or some such. Handheld footage of what looks like a Chinese Dragon, really far away "climbing" into the sky. It's less than a minute long and probably shot on a pre smartphone phone camera.

In the late '90s, Computer and Videogames Magazine (CVG) used to have a section in the middle of the mag which was made from cheaper, yellow paper. I think you were supposed to pull it out and separate it from the rest of the magazine. It had cheat codes for the games at the time but what I mostly remember was the mascot being a badly drawn psycho looking dog called "Hunter", who might have also answered reader's questions. I'd love to see some scans of these pages again. While we're on the subject, PlayStation Plus magazine (basically a 'lads mag' featuring lots of half naked women as well as PlayStation reviews, news, etc) once ran an April Fools article about an upcoming game called 'Scum'. It had very poor graphics and was cashing in on the backlash against violent videogames at the time (this might have been around the time GTA3 was released but possibly earlier). Scum was a first person shooter where the player could wander around the neighbourhood committing murders with hammers and nail guns. The only mention of this prank I can find online is from ten years ago in a tabloid watch comment - http://tabloid-watch.blogspot.com/2010/07/mock-star-game.html?m=1 quote:This reminds me of an April Fool's joke from about ten years ago. In its April issue, PlayStation Plus magazine ran a preview of a fake ultra-violent game called Scum, in which players were rewarded for viciously slaughtering innocent people. This was picked up by the Star, who ran the typical 'fury' and 'outrage' story.

Thanks, I'll try that thread. The source is Season 1, episode 8 of House of Cards. Timestamp is 21:20. Ben Daniels character is having a phone conversation with Robin Wright and he's drinking a beer on the couch. The book is open on the couch next to him, and he stands up and walks away. There's no closer shot of the book than this. My original picture was a phone pic of my laptop so apologies again for the quality. Here's a slightly better picture taken from a HiDef TV. The title looks like it says The New Something Something. Daniels character is a photographer living in New York so I thought it might be something photography or NY related. The cover looks more orange in this version than the original yellow. I thought for a second it might have been The New York Trilogy (a book I already own) but Google doesn't show me any editions having that same cover.
