Isn't it HORRIFYING?!?!?!
The first time that I saw that footage I was horrified and memorized at the same time. Even rewatching it, it just makes me SHUDDER.
I'm glad that you like it. And thanks for the feedback. :)
I agree with the Marketing - I think it's the one part of my pitch that's SERIOUSLY lacking. I was just exhausted when it came to that part... I really like the idea about sponsoring more research and having more actual documentary clips re: this fungus and other subtle predatory parts of nature (check out the stop motion fungus takeover of
Planet Earth: Jungles: Growing Fungi). I really like the spin of natural horror juxtaposed with sensationalized fictional horror. Also, the concept of nature evolving and finding a way to combat its biggest natural threat - Us - is both petrifying, science fictional, but grounded in truth.
I like the idea of an environmental horror film ACTUALLY gaining news based on its sponsored documentaries - Great way to spread awareness of the film AND environmental issues.
