The Chaos Signals Review
It's weird how complex things become as time passes by yet simultaneously don't. When you're younger you either have to exert a ton of effort to make something look good or you just rush it regardless of the quality. When you're older this talent feels like a walk in the park, basically. They both seem ok until you realize another difference: the drive. The desire to do this is more prominent when you're younger while, once you're older, it's not that easy. It's possible, but the stark realization that help would facilitate the process is where the biggest difference lies.
After seeing 2023's The Worm, it reminded me of a more visceral albeit shorter animation from 2019: The Chaos Signals, its opposite in every respect. I guess the reason why I brought up how age changes our perspective after watching this is how I couldn't help but liken both movies, and their decades, to the differences between 80s and 90s horror. I could just compare movies like The Thing and The Blob to movies like Se7en and the Sixth Sense, but I think the most sensible example in this case could be in The First Nightmare on Elm Street and Wes Craven's New Nightmare. Not only is it made by the same director but it also works perfectly to encapsulate my point on how much his ability to make this kind of movie has evolved since then.
