holy shit, i was not expecting that many views...
when i first uploaded this, i wasn't even expecting this to get anywhere under the assumption of combining a fairly popular twitter meme and a cult-classic 90's movie would result in not only very little views but maybe also some confusion and questions, considering that the source materials for this mashup have COMPLETELY different target audiences... but it was a lot of fun to do (this took less than an hour) and just sorta plopped it on here expecting nothing.
also apologies for sounding kinda shitty when it came to a comment mentioning AI, as someone who's going to college soon for animation (an industry that may or may not have some concern over the use of generative AI), i tend to get paranoid when things are compared to AI, especially my stuff, but y'know, even if you heavily disagree with a current trend, sometimes you gotta just go with the flow and focus on more important shit.
and for any kiddos out there, i'd recommend checking out "Lost Highway" if you can, either legally or "legally" (you will totally not be confused as hell on your first watch)
ANYWAYS, here's the links to said source material cuz YT hates descriptions lol:

oh boy... considering that i made this, i unfortunately have to be the "erm, ackshually" guy: no generative AI was involved with this at all, this was all made with premiere pro and photoshop in less than an hour, with the (admittedly somewhat shoddily cropped) face from a screenshot i took of a jumpscare from the movie "Lost Highway" (clip's linked in the description) and the ambient music is from Doom 3 (as there's no 100% isolated version of the ambience from the movie, even in the soundtrack), and the loud sound is from the same clip as the jumpscare, albeit shortened to remove the breathing and lamp clicking from the end of the sound.
i didnt intend on sharing the entire process in this reply but i think it helps when it comes to comments like this, although i completely get why this comment was made, considering recent memes and the like, which the original video is definitely similar to those, but that didnt use AI either
*TL;DR: i didnt use AI on this at all, this was purely done with editing software and photoshop*

@@smitty462 its a joke dude

[@smitty462]

@@B0bby_V shit my bad, i do have a slight tendency to get paranoid-ish when it comes to AI, especially having my stuff being compared to it
i didnt mean to sound like pissed off or anything, it was a very rash reaction
