wanna be weirded out? |
Hey, Listen...I know this doesn't have anything to do with music, but, to me it was good enough to seriously WEIRD ME OUT.. I just had to share it with somebody (and you people were the only ones I could think of that might be weird enough to appreciate it). Soooo, here it is:

it was so cute when the thing started dancing!and then the guy tried to kick 'em and then he feel down!
teaches him to mess with something cute,eh?

That's seriously very weird, and very well made!
Haha, it made me laugh when it started dancing
Yeah, the other objects stalking other people are pretty creepy (especially that conveyor belt). The part where the main character dreams and sees himself in the mirror - how does that connect to the finale? And the doctor's examination is pretty cool too haha.
Yeah, as I watch this, I vascillate between thinking that I am grasping a message out of this...then there are other times I feel this is an expression of sheer surrealism...perhaps with a series of unrelated elements. Am I mistaken, or all all the "currently animated/formerly inanimate" objects former residents of the airport?(train station, subway, office building, whatever...notice how the circular object following the woman down the hall formerly resided on the wall as a part of bas-relief sculpture in another scene? Then the cylindrical "billboard" object following the woman outside was the same object that the main "human" character hid behind earlier? The converyor belt looks like a baggage-claims belt. Makes me wonder if all the other objects - including "Mr Concrete" himself - were perhaps sculptures of some sort...doesn't ol' Concrete move well?...very natural, human movements... very skillful (perhaps computer-assisted) animation...The whole thing conjures up memories of dreams I might have experienced as a kid (perhaps delerious from fever secondary to flu, measles, etc.) And I'm enjoying it!!....weird!

To me, the man appears to be dreaming (after an extended episode of being tormented by this thing) and, in that dream, he comes to the frightening realization that the tormenter has taken possession of him? That he has BECOME the concrete monster? Do I notice in the first part of that dream that he looks down and sees concrete feet (legs, whatever...I can't quite figure that out)

I think, really, that the concrete monster is the embodiement of his inner self, damaged by a repetitive, mind-numbing dayjob - he has become cold (non-passionate), faceless, and only capable of doing basic things. Notice the dent on the monsters head btw.. Being confronted with this entity, and being unable to accept it, he tries to run, but you can't run from yourself. He becomes detached from normal life (where everybody seems to have similar entities attached to themselves, apparently functioning normally with them) until the point where it destroys him. But his demise does not solve the problem of his "disorder", as the next victim is quickly found.. (a new person will take the job that came free with his death): The concrete is cold and incapable of showing any emotion... it's just going through the motions.
Seing the images used, the disorder is quickly associated with typical corporate culture - could this film be culture related criticism? I think so... It's hard to miss actually
