it certainly doesn't deserve all the hype disney gives it at all
"I like girls, but now, it's about justice."Anyone want to hear my cerebral horror-style nightmare?
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?Okay, so this nightmare is apparently me playing one of those helpless narrative types of video game. You play as this six-seven year old girl on a road trip with her parents. It's one of those games where all you can do is sit still and look around. Your parents chat, laugh, and are trying to get you in the mood for the trip. They give you a wad of modelling clay to play with - odd choice, but you get full freedom in making a figure out of it.
From subtle dialogue, you notice something is off. They mention little details that don't sit right. The girl mentions that she should be in school, off-handedly, and that her grandmother was meant to pick her up for the afternoon before this impromptu trip.The parents shoot down the idea of anyone else in the family coming to see them. The destination is described as a cabin in the snow.
You are let out occasionally on car breaks to free roam, but your parents retrieve you if you wander too far, like good parents do. I interact with random rusty roadside stop stuff and occasionally see the occasional person to talk to, who admire my little clay sculpture and share their stories on the road, which are always cut short by the parent who retrieves you and remind you not to talk to strangers.
Then things take a turn for the creepy.
One of the strangers asks you, innocently, "Are they your parents?" This resonates with you, and you keep hearing it at a low whisper every now and again. Other things each strangers all mentions keep coming back to you in the car, without their innocent context. I can't remember them all, but they all slowly chip away at the idea that this is a family trip, and eventually you, the player, come to the conclusion that your have been kidnapped by your parents. And at this stage you realise you've never seen their faces - they've always been looking dead ahead.
Things get weirder. The environment seems darker. You swear you can see tree branches in the rapidly vanishing landscape reaching for you. The parents dialogue becomes more terse, even hostile with one another at times. Any time I look out the window, it's muffled and angry, but when I turn back and they realise you're paying attention they go back to being gentle.
So eventually, the parents tell you they're almost to their destination, but have to pull over for gasoline. They let you out, and after evading them, I can see around the corner is a police car with a cop casually drinking that late evening coffee. I move over to him and he asks you what's up.
You ask him if you could hear his sirens, please mister. It was at this stage I realised that while I, divorced from the situation, had figured it out, this girl hasn't. Her parents come, make and excuse, and leave, the cop smiling and waving.
When you sit in the car, your parents finally turn to you. Holy shit, their faces. Like somebody gouged their thumb into a lump of clay. That is not a face. They're angry with you. "You shouldn't have done that, you bothered that nice policeman, he would have taken you to jail for running too far away from your daddy and I." And you are freaked out and frightened and look at your clay man.
And then you are the clay man, the kid holding you is dead and everything is mist. The Not!parents spend a moment howling in dismay over their child and start to chase you.
It was at this stage I thought "fuck this" and woke up.
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?
