Lol. Reminds me of the original The Blob and how it all took place at night and in dark rooms, one might suspect because of a lack of budget for lighting. In one scene, the Blob conventionally turns the lights out at a doctor's office before it attacks.
Big effects budget does not always (or often) equal good effects. There are a lot of movies where some things probably would actually *have* been more effective off screen.
That is simply not true! I am confident that we can use the budget we have to have amazing on-screen effects for Project Hubris. It will even be easy. The effects will even rival Avengers and Avatar!

Noo he didn't have a chance to scatter the logs around the ship in such a way that who over follows the distress signal will hear them one by one in order, but only get to the last one that reveals the danger just as they are in danger them selves.
Enough that the faceless multinational/interplanetary corporation funding the mission wanted the rescue team to sacrifice as many members as possible to insure they get the readings of the parameters.

I went through the academy with Deadman. I’ve never seen someone so driven before and it was only after our final exam I found out why. Seems his own father disappeared on the infamous Project Icarus. That was why he was first to sign up for Project Hubris, as it was in the same sector Icarus lost contact.
Project Icarus was a mission to get parameter readings on Mercury. However, tragically, they overshot the planet and ended up flying too close to the sun. I hear that the space suits were not up to regulation, and the visors had no UV shielding. Supposedly, everyone's faces were fried to a crispy, delicious golden brown.
If Sci-Fi has taught me anything, naming your project after a religious/mythological concept that is tangentially-related to your experiment is the fastest way to a grotesque death

And more recently, South Korean filmmakers have been putting out amazing stuff that has reached international audiences, especially in the horror and thriller genres.

WJ ZAV I heard he’s related to the Gunnarsonn’s, you couldn’t ask for better relatives then that.
A story about a cursed bloodline where a man is destined to die each generation in various historic disasters
Joking aside, the idea of something out there that can suddenly force you to rip your own face off is pretty horrifying.
I wanted to rewatch Event Horizon and perhaps finally watch Sunshine. However, this video summary saved me a couple of hours of my life.
Sunshine was very pretty. Loved the cinematography.
Watch it while doing something else. Just keep checking up to see the visuals 🤣
This video saved you a lot of suffering.
Don't listen to the haters; _Sunshine_ is great if you love both _Silent Running_ and _The Exorcist._
Both are good.
The first half of Sunshine was great, the second half dropped the ball somewhat but enjoyable nonetheless.
John Deadman, Project Hubris - these are amazing names lmao
Day 2: "The captain ate his own face. So what? The project is going according to plan, as the captain's face was not the reason why he was hired. I'll have no nepotism in space!"
Ah, I see, that's brilliant, by speeding up Event Horizon so it only lasts a minute and a half you avoid the copyright bots.
The most realistic part was that a game of buckaroo drove someone completely insane
"And/or children" 😂
And after finding these videos, the rescue team feels they need to investigate into “Project Hubris” deeper. Perhaps start their own game of Buckaroo and they *DEFINITELY* don’t need to leave.
Behold the plot of dead space.
Yeah, they’ll just mop up the bits of face that are here and there and reboot the ship’s computer and ask it about Project Hubris. That’ll go well.
@@65-bitgamer In fairness to Dead Space, its less that they choose not to leave and more that they can't. They fuck up the ship on entry so they have to find a new ship first.
"And maybe send out a distress signal in Latin." 🤣🤣 That made me absolutely screech-laugh, because it reminded me of Event Horizon!!
One of the many projects I came up with during lockdown to keep me sane was a spoof of the space horror genre called I Don’t Want to Die in Space, the level at which you beat me to it (writing, acting, heck even the title) all I can say is well done sir
Watch space mistakes by SNL. They aren't usually funny but this sketch had my whole family crying.
Don´t be that harsh to yourself. I thought your short sci-fi short was good.
That sounds sick!!
Can I see your project? Also is this like a videogame or novel or short video or what?
I could see a board game, or a card game a la Munchkin with that name.
0:21 Well, that escalated quickly.
It's so nice to see that Gunnar Gunnarsonn achieved so much... I mean an astronaut! That's something.
This is actually Gunnar Gunnarsonn's grandson, Gunnar Deadmen (nee Gunnarsonsonson). He took his wife's last name. I'm sure his grandfather is very proud!
@@DemonicNightmare gunnfather
@@BenGras that was gunnar gunnarson's father, tho i guess that makes him deadman's great gunnfather xD
"Just right off in the middle of a game of Buckaroo" genuinely sounds like a quote from _The Day Today_
Thanks to whoever found all these logs scattered around the ship and compiled them conveniently for us watching here on RUclips.
Wait, what am I doing to my face!
The little digital artifacts making noise for no other reason than to be scary is such a perfect detail.
Hahahaha!!! Every sci-fi survival horror space movie ever. I love it!
More precisely Event Horizon by Paul WS Anderson
Also various video games.
Specifically System Shock 2 and Dead Space.
@@TheCakeIsntReal That's what I was thinking.
@@dwarrow25 And parts of ME2, pretty much every game in the Alien(s) franchise ever and countless other games.
I love the little brain fart when your brain automatically tries to imagine how "eating one's own face" works and sends back "Error: Does not compute."
That was the only thing that saved the ship's computer from eating its _own_ face as well.
"You know, voices are raised, faces are eaten" 🤣🤣🤣
"This is John Deadman, personal log. Project Hubris is well underway." Took me out immediately
Damn, who could have forseen that Project Hubris would fail?
Nonsense - it didn’t fail! It was merely a minor setback and provided valuable data…
Which I am setting up a team to retrieve…
@@oldvlognewtricks count me in! I've already promised to my pregnant wife that it will be my last space mission, and after that we are going to live long and happy life together.
Did Project Hubris eventually complete on time? Because I'm definitely not eating my own face until I know.
We should launch an investigation.
Captain Pathos is perfect for the job. She's a no nonsense former Russian military vet who is estranged from her son, hates space and may be bisexual.
When you say military vet, she looked after the army dogs and horses, that sort of thing, right...?
@@Somnogenesis oh gawd that's even better.
Quick, someone get Jane Lynch or Helen Mirren on the phone!
Does she have a shaved head and endless magazines in her plasma rifle?
I just found out that the real goal of Project Hubris was to send scientists into space where they would push a pencil through the hole in a folded piece of paper.
Calling it “Project Hubris” is also a genius name on ABK’s part considering the lesson of most messed up rocket ship in space films.
@@C.I... yes
@UCCucd5q0MkLI__B3VtXvn1Q “we’ve named it Narcissus after it’s heavily detailed perfected planning, nothing can pass through our ingenious design.”
@@C.I... Come on, you're right, but you're also kind of mean. Let him be happy with his finding. :)
My brother once watched a silly TV show where somebody was obviously traiterous and my brother picked up on that and loudly proclaimed it. He thought he was clever for finding out, but the TV people made this traitor look sketchy on purpose. I was a bit annoyed, but later I thought, hey, my brother had lots of fun and was completely immersed in the show, that is a good thing!
Wish you a good day. :)
That's the joke!
@@terra_the_nightingale135 I mean, Sunshine literally named the ship Icarus and then flew into the sun. Because subtlety was not in the filmmaker's vocabulary.
It would've been called Project Icarus, but that name was already taken for the ship sent out to explore some rumors about Cthulu-esque ruins on a literally dark planet in the other direction.
Still a smarter crew member than anyone in _Alien: Covenant_ .
Pretty much any horror movie protag is smarter than them
Alien Covenant was a teenagers-go-to-remote-cabin slasher film with an overlay of sci-fi. To predict their next move you just had to ask, “What is the most obviously stupid thing they could do?”
@@hiltonian_1260 oh so it's like Game of Thrones, except instead of obviously stupid, they always do whatever is the worst possible thing a person could do
@@hiltonian_1260 we always wanted to know who and where those "90% can't solve this puzzle" are

"Wait, we are receiving a transmission, allow me to switch to fluent english to take this call..."
Never clicked on a video so fast
My God, I'm just seeing this transmission now! This distress signal is 3 days old! Bloody hell, I should have subscribed!
Noo, I loved Deadman! I loved the way he acted needlessly passive-aggressive and hostile towards the main character for no apparent reason in the way only he could!
EVENT HORIZON traumatized me for decades. This was the healing I needed. Thanks ABK. ❤🖤
That line about scattering the logs about the ship...Having flashbacks to every space/horror game I ever played. Lol!
"I must break up these logs and scatter them about the ship..."
Reminded me immediately of Yahtzee Crowshaw's pisstake song about lazy videogame plot contrivances, "Random Documents and Audio Logs." 😂
A. This is brilliant.
B. I loved Event Horizon.
C. I need to watch Sunshine.
Id like to imagine that him being grossed out by that bit of face on the door handle was the only thing that prevented him from saving the day lol
"That message was sent from the UNS Chungus about 4 days ago, after that their radio went dark."
We'll send UNS Gunnar Gunnarsonson to inspect what happened instead of dragging the ship to see what happen.
UNS Gunner Gunnorsonson just went dark.
@@Saint_Wolf_ haha that killed me
"Where we're going, we won't need faces... to possess... in order to... eat... that said face... .........."
I like how the video distorts when he doesn't speak.
*How Polite!*
I'm playing "Dead Space" right now, and boy, does this hit home.
Libera te tutemet ex inferis! Immediately thought Event Horizon before reading the description haha. Well done.
that 0 - 100 is so spot on lol , i seen way to many space movies with this exact thing
I would 100% play this FMV.
I can taste my face now!
How rude of the captain not to allow him to spread his logs around the ship as optional lore-explaining collectables.
You forgot. We Americans like British actors who speak with an American accent, and we tolerate easily American actors (who are not classically trained) who speak with a bad British accent.
"...giving everything a vaguely international feel". LOL
Resistance is futile. You will be assimilated. But I still sometimes have dreams of the Prince of Thieves... Oh Lawd.
@@SpecialSalads , not true anymore.
Canada has a thriving film and tv industry.
And more recently, South Korean filmmakers have been putting out amazing stuff that has reached international audiences, especially in the horror and thriller genres.
In terms of television, I would say the UK certainly rivals the US in terms of comedy, or live comedy formats like panel shows. And the Taskmaster format has now been exported to all of Scandinavia, New Zealand, Spain, etc., despite failing to get a foothold in the US.
I am born and raised in the US and don't like how corrupt my country is. Absolute power corrupts absolutely. I encourage everyone to support non-US media.
@@SpecialSalads We cringe a little too, especially when we can do better without a language coach from Hollywood.
I've been watching enough British and Aussie and Kiwi TV shows that I'm starting to get good at noticing when they're trying to fake an American accent.
Nothing worse than eating your own face and then vomiting it out on the door handle.🗣
Saying to a daily log that you finally get to go home after so long is a sure-fire way to get yourself killed. Same thing applies if you’re the best friend of the protagonist in the first 10 minutes of revenge-based movies
Or if you're 3 of 5 to 8 people that die from the person who is very disliked by the movie watchers.
I like how his ability to get into the reactor room was only thwarted by the handle being icky
Is he related to Officer Deadman, the US cop just two days from retirement?
Poor Officer Deadman. He was so looking forward to retirement with his school teacher wife. He was one of the good ones, you know?
When you said the captain had eaten his face then continued on about Project Hubris being on-track, I died from laughter. Which is better than dying in space.
The captain had eaten his own face, oh no! Anyway..
The compositing on these videos is really quite impressive for short, silly skits (in general actually)
The green screening is well done with intentional lighting and color matching after the fact! Cheers to that mate 🥂
'Two more days of this and I can go back to my wife and / or children' lmao.
Gosh, this man is so brilliant. I wish someone would fund him to do these vids once a week...hell, once a day.
I guess I'll have to eat my face off while I wait.
#hungryformorealisdair
A bit of face on the door handle..... I love this man
I can‘t wait to see the rescue mission.
Board the ship without scanning it properly, send in the most aggressive and cynical crew members. Have them split up. Works every time.
@@thechapelperilous don't forget about one person who is immortal and too powerful, he will save the day and be the last survivor

Project Hubris II: Facing the aftermath
“Project Hubris is doomed!”
Apart from that, Project Hubris is with acceptable parameters.
Project Hubris is the best project name.
Not being facetious, this is in every way shape or form better than the cloverfield paradox. better than alien covenant too
Scientists seriously need to stop naming their projects “Hubris”. They never end well
Oh, and I suppose we shouldn't have called the ship the U.S.S. Icarus, either?
@@BenMarcWilliams I'm not sure if you actually realize that's a Stargate Universe reference. Because they started at Icarus Base.
@@EGRJ I did not realize that.
Why would you ever name something that?

There was....a bit of face...on the door handle.
Slow clap. Bravo, sir.
Right in the chuckle zone.
Edit: i watched this 1 year ago, and came to the comments to see if I enjoyed the same part as I did today.
I did not disappoint myself.
Honestly I can't wait for this new space FPS game. Hu-brace. The graphics engine is working so smoothly I swear that that's an actual ginger playing John Deadman and not just bits of code. And the interior of the International Vaguely space craft is so well rendered.
This is yet another example of all the lives destroyed.... By Buckeroo.
