t3_9n03n2 | -I definitely read about this awhile ago but there's a word in law that describes certain types of crimes. Like one type of law is one that everyone can agree on is wrong like stealing or murder. But another type like marijuana use isn't inherently wrong from the get go. I know there's a word for this but I can't remember it. It's probably latin or something
-Malum prohibitum (plural mala prohibita, literal translation: "wrong [as or because] prohibited") is a Latin phrase used in law to refer to conduct that constitutes an unlawful act only by virtue of statute, as opposed to conduct that is evil in and of itself, or malum in se.

t3_rpytms | -- UK TV Show from late 1970s
- May have been part of a series called Play For Today
- Set in the future where doctors had a medical case that contained instruments that were capable of performing miracles
- The doctors wore predictably cheesy Barbarella-esque outfits made out of silver foil
- A woman steals a case from a doctor and tries to profit from it (maybe)
- Demonstrating to a friend or maybe a buyer, what one of the instruments could do by sawing through her neck with no pain or blood or anesthesia
- The head office decides to cut “power” to the case just as she was doing so and of course, that doesn’t go well for the thief
- It would be a miracle if someone finds this - one of those things that I’ve searched for many times over the years and become obsessed with finding

t3_6dip97 | -This is a movie I remember seeing when I was a boy at least 20 years ago. I remember this captain, which I think was British or American, on some raft or small Navy cruiser (not sure lol) in what I remember was as green and tropical country (Pacific war campaign?). I remember he had a sidekick (another guy), and they were trying to make a run from the japanese or vietnamese. Dog fighter airplanes were on the lookout for them and I remember them taking the fight to the japs in the final act, maybe after having been spotted and caught out, dunno. Don't recall if hostile Navy cruisers too were chasing them. But I do recall the captain shooting down some hostile planes before being sunk and dying in the end, while his friend survived. I remember the captain as the more experienced one, but also a bit arrogant and/or hateful.
Anyway, been trying to google this film for a long time, but can't find it. Maybe it wasn't even a film tho I basically grew up on cable lol
Any help is appreciated.
-*Murphy's War* with Peter O'Toole?
-Wasn't it u-boat vs plane? I do remember him going bat shit crazy in a smaller boat towards the end tho. And having a sidekick.
Haven't seen it in a very long time. Maybe I need to re-watch it. My imagination could very well have reversed the roles.
-I haven't seen it for a while either. Kind of a long shot, but I've seen plenty of people on TOMT misremember things or combine memories. I'm probably wrong, but I thought I'd throw that out there anyway.
-Yeah. I know I've seen it, fan of everything O'Toole (even Supergirl lol), but it's been a while. The more I think about it, the more it checks out. At least the second half of the movie. Obsessed with revenge, check. Sidekick, check. No woman for the most part, check. Worn-out boat, check. Sunk and dies too, check.
Been thinking about it all day and I may have merged two movies in my mind. Gonna see if I can find anything about a small boat trying to outrun the enemy/fighting planes tho.
Thanks again.
-It seems like maybe some of the details are hazy. I've got two guesses for you:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/They_Were_Expendable (was Donna Reed in it?)
This one I feel you'd have an easier time remembering because it's a story about an experience of J.F.K's during WWII https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PT_109_(film)
-When were you 20?
-I'm 36. Not sure if I saw the movie when I was 5, 10 or 15. Like said, I pretty much grew up on cable in the late 80s / early 90s. I must have watched thousands upon thousands of movies in my lifetime, but this one keeps eluding me.
I do remember the movie was in colors. /u/evilsemaj suggested it could be a movie called PT 109. I will have to check it out, but I do remember it was a smaller boat. I know I described the boat as a cruiser, I did so because a cruiser is the smallest Navy vessel type I knew about until today (never heard the expression PT boat before). It could very well have been a PT boat (in fact, I'm pretty sure it was. It was tiny, why I also wrote a raft lol sry about that). You know, Apocalypse Now-kind-of war boat.
So yeah, I do remember it was a small, battle wornout boat. I do remember the story took place in some tropical country, decent weather included (I do believe I remember blue skies). Could be Japan, China, Vietnam, Philipines, you name it.
The boat may've had a bigger crew than just two people, but I just remember the somewhat crazy captain in command and his inexperienced (innocent?) sidekick. I think I remember the boat being sunk and the captain dying in the end, but I may be wrong. I do not remember any women in the movie whatsoever, so I don't think it's the movie They Were Expendable.
The reason I described the captain as crazy is that I sort of remember them trying to outrun the enemy, but the captain going fuck it and taking the fight to the enemy in the end. I think the movie ended right there and then but I may be wrong.
I mentioned hostile airplanes as I specifically remember the captain being almost obsessed with shooting down as many as possible. The more, the merrier. I do not remember hostile war vessels or PT boats at all. That said, the airplanes might be just a figment of my imagination.
If I remember anything else I'll make sure to update the post.
Thanks again.

t3_5z3dt1 | -I read this less than 5 years ago, and it's a teen fiction book. I believe it's a post-apocalyptic story, but I'm not sure! So in the story, teens undergo some sort of procedure to remove their humanity, and afterwards are given a number; a high number means they aren't very human-like, and a low number means they are.
The protagonist is this girl who is not very "humane" (has a high number), and she meets a boy who has a lot of humanity left (smaller number). I think they end up escaping the facility that took away their humanity but I can't be sure...
I don't remember much else, but any help would be great :)
- Reboot (Reboot #1) by Amy Tintera? 2013.
Five years ago, Wren Connolly was shot three times in the chest. After 178 minutes she came back as a Reboot: stronger, faster, able to heal, and less emotional. The longer Reboots are dead, the less human they are when they return. Wren 178 is the deadliest Reboot in the Republic of Texas.
Wren’s favorite part of the job is training new Reboots, but her latest newbie is the worst she’s ever seen. As a 22, Callum Reyes is practically human. His reflexes are too slow, he’s always asking questions, and his ever-present smile is freaking her out.

-I know nothing about the game or the character, I've just seen a ton of posts/articles/memes talking about this character being a sexy female villain.

t3_r9lz5e | -Recently I started binge-watching Sabrina the Teenage Witch (the 90s/2000s show) and I think I found a case of a lost song, similar to the one in King of the Hill. Namely, a slow R&B jam plays at the very end of season 2 episode 2 and so far, through digging and shazam I have been unable to find it. I checked out a bunch of soundtrack listing websites, looked through the comments under this upload ([https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QPTIKyIKuw8](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QPTIKyIKuw8)) and got nothing. Soundtrack listing sites usually feature a blank page for this episode or list some miscellaneous music. As you can see, the music from the upload is not copyrighted either. Lost Media Wiki and this subreddit also didn't feature any clues, so I assume it's a new case.
-i think the most likely answer is that it was made for the show or something along those lines
-This is a really good one! The comment saying it's Toni Braxton... 🙄
-I mean, if it was Toni Braxton, it would be even more interesting, since we'd have a potential lost song by her
-Definitely not Toni. It sounds nothing like her. Something that came to mind when I read that, though... Melissa Joan Hart and Britney Spears were friends back in those days and did some work together. Britney did record an unreleased Toni Braxton song called "Today" as a demo before being signed. Now, I'm not saying that this is a Britney song, but it does sound like someone recording a demo *for* either a Britney or Toni Braxton song. Still, that's a crackpot theory because some random demo wouldn't appear on a show.
I don't really have time to do research right now, but if I did, I would analyze what kinds of lyrical songs typically appear in this show. Is it production music? Hit songs or songs from popular artists? Songs from lesser-known artists? Is there a common record company "pool" they seem to be pulling from? Do we know which libraries or albums of production music they source music from?
-That is a good clue tbh. But it's gonna be difficult, because the music is really random at times. There are loads of celebrity/band cameos, so for example from what I've watched so far you get stuff like Backstreet Boys, Violent Femmes, 10000 Maniacs and so on. The thing that gets me the most here is that most of the licensed music used is like totally recognizable and quite easy to find. There is some production music here and there, but like I said, most of the music containing lyrics is an actual song of some kind
-There's this other song that appears on the show, which is production music. In my opinion, the vocalist actually sounds similar, just doing a Madonna impression instead of a Toni one:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NN7vZNyu6es
It comes from the [Mastersource](https://m.imdb.com/title/tt0311110/soundtrack/?ref_=tt_trv_snd) catalog, which has since been acquired by Universal Music Publishing Group. I ran some searches on there to no avail, but I'm out of time again.
-I have no proof but my ear says the artist is Toni Braxton, 90s royalty. Hope this helps.
-Its daniel spence

t3_cnkn0d | -I heard this rap song a few days ago and I’ve been searching everywhere for it. Unfortunately I can’t remember like any of it and all I got is it’s a rap beat/song and towards the end one of the artist starts making gun noises to the beat for awhile. And the song seemed to be produced fairly recently
(It is not Mans Not Hot btw)

t3_hcdnr4 | -Since my [original post](https://www.reddit.com/r/tipofmytongue/comments/d6uznn/tomtshort_film2010s_nickelodeons_creepy_film/) got archived, I am having to open a new thread.
[blameitonjorge](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCU3oAyhHDXjgbxazqOEG2UA) did a video talking about my post and I got a bunch of replies. Thank you very much for all the help.
I have a pretty sweet announcement to make. I believe [suorevadac](https://www.reddit.com/user/suorevadac) found the lost media.
Here is the checklist: 1- Small animals made out of real bones. 2- Butcher played by a real person. 3- Butcher gets attacked by his creations. 4- Black and white (some parts). 5- Music, no dialog, sound effects. 6- Bones inside glasses. 7- Stop Motion
I am 90% sure this is the right media. The only thing that is holding me back is that I can't confirm if it got aired on Nickelodeon or Cartoon Network in South America.
[BUTCHERS HOOK](https://vimeo.com/14545752) by Simon Pummell (1996)
**EDIT 1**: I am having trouble finding a way to contact Simon Pummell. If you find a way, let me know!!!
Contacting Nickelodeon and Cartoon Brazil/South America and ask if they know about Butchers Hook being aired could be helpful as well. However, Both never answered me when I asked in the first place.
**EDIT 2**: If you are wondering why this isn't masked as solved: The only scene that is exactly as I remember is the scene where the butcher is being attacked. The gory bunny thing is something that I can't remember. That's why I want to confirm where this was aired first, so I can make a sense and confirm it there is a possibility that this is in fact the video that I saw on tv as a kid.
**EDIT 3**: Here is something interesting posted by [he\_Rated\_R\_Shimmer](https://www.reddit.com/user/The_Rated_R_Shimmer/)"Short film using weird techniques? South America? Channel ending in -eon, -ion?. I think I have the answer of what kind of channel would broadcast that, and definitely wasn't Nickelodeon.Fuzzy memories can be treacherous, but I could confirm that kind of movie would never be shown in Nickelodeon, but in "Locomotion". An adult cartoon channel from late-90s/mid-2000s with similar name that used to have a block called "Locotomia", where they used to show some weird animated or stop-motion short films from around the world."
I am trying to figure out if Locomotion broadcasted Butcher's Hook. I do remember of this channel, but I don't remember being a viewer. If they aired there, my guess is that I flicked between shows and landed on Locomotion and get a dose of childhood trauma.
**EDIT 4:** The co-writer of Butcher's Hook. wrote me back!" Dear xxxxx
how wonderful that that strange little film wandered so far! I don't have any specific information about its screening history -- you could always contact Hot Property Films in London for that. I imagine it was part of a package of British animations bought as a job lot from the UK distributor Channel 4.
The director Pummell and I went our separate ways after that one but we still keep in touch. It was an interesting moment...
With very best wishes,
Simon "I will be trying to contact Channel 4 and Hot property Films and see if they aired this film on Locomotion.**Extra information:** I can confirm that Locomotion aired NFB content. Now there is a HUGE possibility that I saw Butcher's Hook and Strange Invaders on Locomotion. I believe we are
**EDIT 5:**
This was the answer I got from Simon's team. It's really frustrating

-Any recent updates on the search so far?
-Yo Folk, here ini Brazil the channel "LocoMotion" was powered by Nickelodeon, I think this might have been aired there by some sick employee in the early 2000's
-If it’s any comfort, I saw the short after watching the video about your thread a few months ago. I still remember the bones and butcher thing, but I had completely forgotten about the gorey bunny part.
TBH, this is the case for most things I’ve forgotten and then remembered. There’s one part I really remember, then another part I completely do not remember (making it a nightmare to find). And then when I do find it again, I’m always like “wtf I did not remember this part at all.”
-I'm going to conclude this post by tomorrow
-[removed]
-Ugh, what a horrible video. That is so disturbing and depressing. I can't get through the whole thing!
I think the reason why you don't remember the rabbit monster is because your brain would've blocked it out.
Well I'm glad you've found it! (Sorta). It's good to clear things up and get answers.
-Is this it
https://youtu.be/vBpXXUTGLJQ
-Epic
-Yeah, Locomotion's Locotomía is your best bet. There's no way Nickelodeon would air something like that. In my country (also from S. America), Locomotion and Nickelodeon were only one channel apart so you could've landed there unknowingly if it was the case for you.
-Not as creepy as I thought it would be.
-[deleted]
-Well now I'm gonna have nightmares after watching that.
-[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7KY9y4DuGjI](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7KY9y4DuGjI)
-[https://vimeo.com/14545752](https://vimeo.com/14545752)
-Would there be a way to check the schedule for Locomotion back in the day? It would take a lot of time, but if we could look through the schedule, we could maybe comb through it to find Butchers Hook.
It's just an idea.
-Hi, I'm a Mexican boy and I remember the beginning of this short very well, I remember seeing it on TV when I was little and that it scared me too much, I only saw a small fraction and I changed the channel to Cartoon network but I was still too scared so I went up to my mother's room and went to sleep with her, I remember everything very well since I couldn't sleep because when I shrunk and hugged my knees and my mother hugged me and I felt that she was the rabbit and could not sleep, it was a horrible feeling. Now, I remember very well that at the beginning a rabbit hung out of something strange and with blood in the mouth, then it moved very strangely and from there I saw how it fell into a bottle full of liquid, hence I tell what happened, but now the strange thing is that I do not remember any channel, I used to watch 3, history, Cartoon network and nick, but I don't remember what I was watching before the short came out, I was left with the idea that it was a segment or something like that from History, but I didn't know there was more people who saw it and I didn't think it was Nick either and until about an hour ago I saw a post on facebook in which in the comments they talked about this and I couldn't help feeling weird
I repeat that I do not remember the channel or that it was complete, only the beginning
Oh and by the way, if you don't understand I'm sorry, I'm using Google Translate
-Nice to see that someone remembers it. I hope someone can come with a final answer that this short was really featured in south/central America
-there is no fucking way this got aired on nickelodeon, it's so motherfucking creepy, specially the gory bunny part. If this aired on nickelodeon, i lost my hope on humanity.
-Damn, that really felt extremely messed up to actually air on a kids cartoon, I'm also from Brazil, and used to watch nick at around 2006-2007, I'm guessing this probably aired during nick@night right? Even with this being the case it still feels so creepy, just barely believable that they actually allowed this to air.
-I think I might have [found it](https://youtu.be/lUZ0VS9LZhQ)
-close but it does not fit the description
-is it [this](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vhIE7x0MBUg) idk if you've already seen it
-Ready the post, I talk about this video
-So, I just watched the BlameItOnJorge and after watching the updated info link to the video ... there is NO way that Nickelodeon would've aired this (if this was the original film). I mean, they've played their own weird and questionable material back in the day but I seriously doubt this was something the channel would've shown kids. But, no less, I'm glad you found the possible source of your memory. I know what it's like to have that old memory with no recollection of where it came from. I've managed to get some of them cleared up recently, too. But, I think I'll post about some of the other media memories that I'm still dumb founded as to where and when in my childhood they came from.
-Wooow! Not at all what I had pictured in my mind, definitely a lot gorier! It makes sense Nickelodeon never aired it, however, I suppose the sensationalist title helped your cause. =) I only heard about Locomotion as the channel that broadcasted South Park here in Mexico.
-Guess I have PTSD now
-I was going to ask if [this](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vOGhAV-84iI) had any thing to do with the production you remember. It's black and white, there are bones, and they do combine into one monstrous thing... maybe you watched this video and the bucher's hoor on different ocasions and ended up associating them both... specially with the passing of time, one of them might have made you remember the other one, for the similar elements, and the rest got slightly mixed up...
-I am pretty sure it was stop motion an not an animation.
-please check my last update ;)
-omg that video feels so surreal, why did they put puppies in a jar
-Ok, so, the way I found the video is because I’m a slipknot fan, so I was looking up the song butchers hook, and I was greeted with this video https://youtu.be/vBpXXUTGLJQ, I’m so eager to find out more and am trying to get more people to research it with me!
-If your trying to find a way to contact him have you tried his Facebook?
[Simon pummell](https://m.facebook.com/people/Simon-Pummell/616884609)
-Hello. Maybe you will find this interesting. It is an animation short movie that includes bones. It was aired on locomotion channel many years ago. Hope you will enjoy. https://youtu.be/NRHVzbJVx8I
-Hello there. This is not the video I am looking for; the video that I am looking for is not an animation. However, you gave me a piece of valid information. This animation you sent comes from NFB, the same distributors of Strange Invaders. This means that maybe Strange Invaders got aired on Locomotion as well. This would support the theory that I watched the video on Locomotion and not Nickelodeon. I will contact NFB again and try to confirm it they aired Strange invaders on Locomotion.
-The film seems to be made by taking various photos after each other to create the stop motion but it didn't flow very well which gave it a more eerie effect. Could anyone recognise the species of the animal bones? some sort of parrot/eagle, primate and a snake. That's all I got anyways.
-Ok i wish i could say i saw the video but in all honesty i clicked the link and then clicked off, how could this be aired in the first place?
-[deleted]
-So I watched it but I have no idea what it is but I will ask my parents about it they might have some awser because my dad loves old shows
-Was this really on Nickelodeon cause Jesus Christ it's scary
-That's fucking disturbing as hell, my question is why they thought it was ok to air that as a kids show. The amount of dead puppies in this video is fucking unreal. If there was anyone that watched this as a kid, they have to have some sort of trauma from watching that. "kids" shows back then were fucked up.
-I made this account just to voice my opinion. It wasn't scary when I watched it with my sister, however, it does make sense that it scared you as a child. Honestly, I didn't find it disturbing either as others said. I could just be desensitized.
-Creepy thing to show kids on Nickelodeon, but at least it's not dirty like sanjay and craig or ren and stimpy. I always thought Fairly odd parents was messed up too. It had pedophilia references in it...
​
also as far as creepiness goes, that is very unsettling but I seen worse in Vintage seasme street clips. Don't believe me? look up child eating rabbit, fat knees, and creepy toys and robots in sesame street videos.
-https://youtu.be/vBpXXUTGLJQ
I believe this is what yall looking for
-Read my post to the end first. This video was posted on vimeo 10 years ago and someone reuploaded it on YouTube after I tallked about it.
-This—this aired on Nickelodeon.
Oh. My god.
-Man...i live in Brazil and i remember this...well...a little bit because i was 4\~6 years at the time, and i always remember this creepy stuff but my laziness don't allow me to search the source. thanks for that
-[deleted]
-As someone who is an avid animal lover that was absolutely disturbing. I hope that didn’t air on a kids network. Otherwise they will be dealing with a lot of crying children.
-Most of it was so eerie but the bit where he has the skeleton body and a human head was funny
-I don’t know if this will help but here’s his website in was in the description of the short film http://www.pummell.com/?C=18&A=6. Looking further into the website if you scroll down to the information on the butchers hook you will see that it aired on channel four but it was on Dutch television Europe television and UK television. Hope I helped.
-This short looks to be Locomotion's style... (they did have a stop motion short with meat) I've looked through a couple playlists of the Locomania block's shorts and haven't found that specific one, but it could just be that nobody managed to grab footage of it when it aired.
​
The webmaster of this site that preserved material from Locomotion ([http://projetoloucomotion.6te.net/](http://projetoloucomotion.6te.net/) ) has a Reddit ([https://www.reddit.com/user/brunomocsa](https://www.reddit.com/user/brunomocsa)), maybe if you contact him you'll have some luck!
-Yeah but nah, that was never on kids tv
-how you know??
-Because...did you watch it? No way that ever got on kids TV
-its possible. a lot of strange crap got on kids TV.
-Someone posted the short on YouTube a few days ago https://youtu.be/vBpXXUTGLJQ
-A video gets made on it and it instantly gets found, wow. :o
-The video has been on vimedia for 9 years, the film is from 1996, and the original reddit post dates back to 9 months ago.
:o
-I watched this video just now to see what all the fuss was about. Holy shit that's unnerving. SO unnerving. The sound design is what makes it. The camera clicking, the animal chirping, the somber but quiet music in the background. I had to turn down the audio because it kept making me jump. The jerky stop motion is also masterful, unnerving and jumpy intentionally so I assume.
Now, here's my question. Even for brazillian tv: who the FUCK would've thought this was okay to air on regular prime time nickelodeon???
-[I don't know if someone said it yet, but we think we found it on Vimeo!](https://vimeo.com/14545752) Honestly the idea of using bones is really cool. I'm a fan of vulture culture, and if I were a costume/set designer I would probably use my personal collection in it! It's a very interesting work of art.
-wasn't there like hand puppets not cloth cover hands like actual hands shown they just bend the fingers to make a mouth and wasn't the "abomination" like a squirrel skull with a bird chest and dog legs cat arms and hamster or rat hands and it was all like glued together or something and had strings attached to them, wasn't the "butcher" an old-ish man who owned a shop down the street
-Short film using weird techniques? South America? Channel ending in -eon, -ion?. I think I have the answer of what kind of channel would broadcast that, and definitely wasn't Nickelodeon.
Fuzzy memories can be treacherous, but I could confirm that kind of movie would never be shown in Nickelodeon, but in "Locomotion". An adult cartoon channel from late-90s/mid-2000s with similar name that used to have a block called "Locotomia", where they used to show some weird animated or stop-motion short films from around the world.
Edit: Some orthography errors.
-Great memory. I will dig it. Maybe you are right. I will pin your theory as an Update soon so people can See it
-[deleted]
-If I could take back what I just watched, I would.
-This aired In Brazil? I can't remember watching it LOL
-[was it this????](https://youtu.be/vBpXXUTGLJQ)

-Hey, I'm contacting someone to get Simon's email. If someone already has it please tell me.
-I’m going to get nightmares.
-aaaaaaaa jesus you almost gave me a hartatack
-I don't know if you already found this, but i went to research a little bit in Pummell's page, and looks like this film was made in 1995. this was part of the description:
**Selected Festival Awards, Nominations & Screenings**British Animation Awards: ‘Best Use of New Technology’ (Winner)Rencontres Internationales Art Cinema-Video Ordinateur, Paris 1998**Selected Museum Screenings**Museum Boymans van Beuningen, Rotterdam 1998 *Loplop / re/presents: The im/pulse to see*Kaaitheatre Studio's/Studiowerk, Brussels, 1996 *Rehearsals for Extinct Anatomies*)
Maybe tracking those museums or events for the awards could help? also, i found out via his website that the film was made in collaboration with " Koninck Studios" but when entering their site there it is no track about Butcher's Hook, but have social media, and looks like they are active on instagram... [here](https://www.bfi.org.uk/films-tv-people/4ce2b94334947) is the page i found about them, i don't know if it's legit.(Crappy english, sorry)
Edit: grammar
-i'm scared of this post
-This film does not look like something that'll air on Nick, I would assume that this film wouldn't be suitable for a child or even adults.
-Edit: sorry for this long block of text, I just thought it was a super interesting way of conveying their perspective, and I really, really wanted to pick it apart.
All things aside, the video actually seems pretty interesting from an artistic point of view, whether you agree with the message or not. The butcher seems more like a taxidermist than a real butcher, and it seems like the angle they went with on that is that he, along with all other people who practice taxidermy, are just butchers who take the bodies of animals and don't let them "die" properly. They keep them "alive" in this unnatural kind of way, preserving their bodies for their kitsch (from the pov of the creator) art and prevent them from returning to the earth in a way that I think the creator would find respectful to the process of life and death as a whole. I think this is supported, first off, by the fact that the animals come back to life at all. Its played like a punishment for his hubris. For not respecting death, his bones come back to life and turn him into this half dead, half alive *thing* that breathes through a tube. They did to him what he did to them, and put him in limbo. That is, until at the very end, when the head becomes just a skull and they put a plant in his bones, returning him properly to the cycle. The whole thing reads to me as either a condemnation of taxidermy (and possibly human hubris in general, just using taxidermy as a particularly poignant example), or a commentary on our fear of death (something to back this up might be the fact that the breathing tube thing looks like medical equipment that might be used to keep someone alive even when they realistically wouldn't have any quality of life; people who are in a sort of medical limbo, who have no hope and are basically dead already, living simply because they are afraid to die).
-This is...
So weird...
These kind of art films usually give me a very strange feeling of fear and nostalgia...
-I got in contact with Anima Mundi (Festival that exhibited Butcher's Hook in Brazil in 2006) on facebook and here's what they said:
*(My name), todos os canais de TV sempre deram uma boa cobertura de noticiário e entrevistas sobre nossas edições, em todos os anos do Anima Mundi. Mas nunca fizemos exibições de nenhuma sessão integral do festival pela TV.*
Translanting:
TV channels always give us a good coverage on news and interviews about our editions, in every year of Anima Mundi. But we never did full exhibition of a full session of the festival via TV.
I can send prints of the conversation u/deaduser00
-Thx for the msg. I wasnt expecting anima mundi to have any direct relashionship with any short film to be honest. I believe they only give exposure to short films coming from numerous sources. Kinda like an Oscar
-Yes, they did not have any direct relationship with the short. But if you saw it on Brazilian TV in mid 2006 it was (And maybe still is) a good bet you saw it on some sort of Anima Mundi coverage / related event.
-I'll edit my comment later. Super excited to watch this, but am posting a comment so I don't forget to actually sit down with it when I get home.
-On Simon's website the following can be found in a description of Butcher's Hook.

​
It seems like it was broadcasted by NPS Dutch TV and Channel 4 in the UK. Can that be traced at all to CN or Nickelodeon in South America?
-I also tend to agree with the people who believe it may have aired on Cartoon Network. The first thing I thought of when I heard about this was that it sounds like something that would have been on their O Canada segment.
-I find it highly unlikely this was on Nick.
-This is definitely a wtf kind of video but nowhere near as horrifying as I was expecting it to be after hearing the original description.
-This just looks like something you would see in adult swim so maybe in cartoon network I'm not sure
-I can now confirm I never saw this back in the day, but I'm glad I could still be of help. What I was picturing was something similar to a bipedal version of the reindeer from Nightmare Before Christmas, shot in black and white, with similar camerawork as that old 30s stop motion short called "The Mascot". I don't know what I'm remembering, probably nothing - a combination of things (and that hilarious cursed image you linked with the original post probably helped to obscure things further.)
Glad I could be of some help in the search. Did the film end up having any connection to NFB or CBC?
-What it's weird is that the most shocking takes (dead bunny and baby dogs) are things that I can not recall. Maybe because they are random scenes without direct connection to the plot? To your question: They have no connection to NFB and there is no connection with CN or Nick so far, but I am looking for answers. The MINIMAL chance of this being a wrong short movie is still there
-Yeah that's what I was thinking. The only thing still tickling me that this may not be it still is the fact you don't recall the dog or the bunny, as I would think to a child those would stand out most. I will look into the director and such and look for a connection to NFB or CBC first, as they have worked with us before whereas Nik and CN are notoriously terrible with that as far as lost media hunts go.
-Seems the dude was really involved with the BBC (British Broadcast Corporation.) BBC (for some reason) has a large presence in Canada through CBC. I watched horus of BBC programming as a kid on CBC Kids, which was CBC's morning block. Their radio stations are even a co-run together here. Don't ask me why Canada has a BBC radio, but we do. It's possible that rather than going from the NFB to CBC to Nik, it went from BBC to CBC to Nik. The CBC/Nik connection is our only thing to go off because we know multiple Zed/O'Canada shorts came from CBC. Where it came before CBC is beyond us still, making this a possibility if this is even the short. Weird how I've become involved in this just by commenting months ago on something I scrolled past when in r/tipofmytounge to make a different post. Right place, right time, with the right info I guess.
-if it was something that aired on cartoon network early in the morning? Wouldn't it be an adult swim thing if its that early?
-neat
-Why the fuck would this be aired anywhere near a children’s channel?! Just the intro was enough for me, jeez.
-I wonder if it could be because of the two channels in one channel mix?
Here in Denmark, in the 90's, when Nickelodeon "closed for the night" it would switch to another more adult kind of channel (PlayBoy TV if I remember right) and in the morning when Nickelodeon "started up again" switch back to Nickelodeon
-I found Simon Pummell's Facebook page, I sent a PM regarding Butcher's Hook airing on Cartoon Network or Nickelodeon (waiting on a reply).
Here's a link to his page:
[https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=616884609&lst=100008197806045%3A616884609%3A1592781714&sk=timeline](https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=616884609&lst=100008197806045%3A616884609%3A1592781714&sk=timeline)
-Mr. OP, do you think there's a probability that, even though you were on Nickelodeon, the signal for the channel got messed up with another channel by accident, making you think this aired on Nick but it was actually supposed to be airing in another channel?
I mean, my explanation sounds kinda dumb, so let me present you with an example:
[https://youtu.be/AsXOHpLqAls?t=1099](https://youtu.be/AsXOHpLqAls?t=1099)
(It's on the right timestamp)
Seems that this kind of thing happens, even though it's rare. That could explain why Nick would air something so... Gross, to say the least, and also could explain why no one can find it airing on a kid's channel.
-No. Because I watched it a bunch of times. When I was younger, 80% of the time I was watching Nickelodeon. I watched a bit of Mtv and Discovery Channel as well. Let's assume I dind't watch it on Nickelodeon. I would guess I found a weird channel by flicking, and would go back to this channel every day with the spectation of watching Butchers Hook.
-It’s possible that the gory rabbit parts were edited out of the version you saw, due to TV rating restrictions.
-I was thinking the same thing! However, I believe this is not so realistic. If they had a problem with this short, they would probably not air it at all
-okay i get that the short is very similar in description, but theres NO fucking way they would let that air- fucking horrifying what the hell
-Well... Being a Brazilian born in 2001, I can confirm that I remember a lot of television shows that has the same atmosphere and creepiness as the "Butcher's Hook". I really miss those days of my childhood...
-Trippy show, would not doubt it airing on Nickelodeon though, or [Adult Swim]
-Ew.
-Ok, so It might be mandela effect but I have a feeling that I've seen this before and I got horrified as a kid and if I actually saw this short before I'm pretty sure that it was on Cartoon network and not on nickelodeon.
(I'm from brazil too, lmao its on the name)
-That was creepy as fuck
-Oh wow, I watched that Blameitonjorge vid yesterday. Cool to see an update so quick after!
-Just watched a YouTube vid on this, how I’m deep in this sub with loads of my useless knowledge to disperse
-So I did some research:
Simon Pummell co-wrote Butcher's Hook with science fiction writer Simon Ings according to [https://simonpummell.com/](https://simonpummell.com/)
Simon Ings is actually reachable. He has a twitter account u/simonings I think this is the guy. He is a science fiction writer and has stuff published since 1992. Butcher's Hook came out 1996. He also has a gmail at [simonings@](mailto:simonings@)...
Also according to [https://simonpummell.com/](https://simonpummell.com/) this video aired in the UK on Channel 4 and on Dutch Television. Not sure if they have ever exchanged any shorts with Nickelodeon/Cartoon Network but work finding out.
I'll keep looking
UPDATE: If it also helps, the actor who played the taxidermist is named Barrie Houghton (found here: [https://www.imdb.com/search/title/?companies=co0103527](https://www.imdb.com/search/title/?companies=co0103527)) Perhaps he can get reached as well.
-I mailed Ings. Let's see
-Checked out the the link on Vimeo. It was a lot more shocking than I thought.
Also, another one of Simon Pummell's other works was apparently a documentary about human life titled [Bodysong](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0349154/).
-Why am I checking out creepy shit this late at night.
-Trying to find a way to contact Simon. If I have any luck or can get any new info, I'll report back to this thread.
-Hes got a [vimeo](https://vimeo.com/pummell). Posted to it 2 years ago. Seems like he takes few year breaks.
-I found this about the short from the website link in the description of the video [http://www.pummell.com/?C=18&A=6](http://www.pummell.com/?C=18&A=6)\-
A miniature horror film, which explores the imagery of medical and scientific experimentation to create an animated baroque revenge drama: the reckoning between a taxidermist and his animals. Written with the science fiction author Simon Ings.

It could be possible that although it was known to be broadcast on Channel 4 could have partnered with Nickelodeon at one point and that was how Nick got hold of it. That could also be said for NPS as well.
#
-OK so I went to the video and in the description was a direct link to his site, [http://www.pummell.com/?C=18&A=6](http://www.pummell.com/?C=18&A=6) , this to me seems like a list of works he was involved with, awards they got, and where they were viewed by the public including public channels like Nickelodeon and the like. What I did find was

It says it was shown on a Channel 4 in the UK, if it had been aired on Nickelodeon in South America then it would have been an accident maybe, I don't know how it's possible but to me perhaps someone had somehow downloaded the video and set it up to play??
-[removed]
-What in the funky fresh fuck did I just watch
-OH GOD OH FUCK THIS IS ABSOLUTELY IT I REMEMBER IT
-Can you remeber where this was aired?
-Not really, I'm central american and all I'm sure of is that it was aired late 2003-mid 2004, I personally wouldn't be surprised if it was Nickelodeon because sometimes there would be weird programming segments where they would out just air stuff unrelated to regular programming out of nowhere and maybe never repeat it again. Kinda like how there first introduced Pucca or The Adrenalini Brothers.
-Holy hell! If thats it, thats terrifying
-In the 90s there was a commercial that aired on Nickelodeon for some kind of kids' breakfast food, I want to say it was yogurt or Pop-Tarts, that featured some kids in a room styled with all kinds of "wacky" props including a huge mobile on the ceiling. One of the objects on the mobile was a very very obviously real dead cat that was hung either by the neck or around the middle. It disturbed the fuck out of me as a kid. The opening of this short with the dead bunny totally reminded me of that, although the cat wasn't bloody, it was just old ratty beat-up taxidermy.
The point is that adults sometimes make poor choices regarding what's appropriate to show to kids. This piece is abstract enough that I can totally imagine some network exec not recognizing the plot of it and just thinking it's kooky stop-motion animation - especially if the opening shots of the dead rabbit and dead puppies were removed.
-Do you have any other details about that commercial?
-It aired on Nick and/or CN (likely both) in 1997 or earlier.
The shot of the dead cat was just a split second and I think it was at the end of the commercial but I feel like the footage was slowed down in that split second so you could really get a good look at it.
I think the majority of the set was painted blue. The cat was orange. And again it was old, shitty taxidermy, not like, someone's freshly dead pet.
-i'm insanely curious so i need to see this now. i'll look around for it and if anyone finds it, let me know please
-Edit: I'll make it its own thread.
I will look around. It's going to be hard to find because I can't for the life of me remember what the product was. I'm about 90% sure it was a breakfast item, and it was definitely something from the "junk food disguised as health food" category (i.e. not just straight-up candy).
I also think there might have been a second, cut-for-time version without that final shot, because I vaguely remember thinking "oh good, they got rid of the dead cat part".
-I can't find anything about it airing on Nick, but from here: [https://simonpummell.com/](https://simonpummell.com/)
I found this:

EDIT: someone literally just uploaded it to YT: [https://youtu.be/vhIE7x0MBUg](https://youtu.be/vhIE7x0MBUg)
- Even if this wasn't on nickelodeon. This had to be somewhere else. I came to Europe in 2009. years after all European showings. If this is really the video. This had to be aired somewhere else.
-This short makes Crybaby lane look like Care bears.
-HAHA you are totally right
-Holy crap, I remember you. I was the guy who told you to try going to r/obscuremedia, but I guess that didn’t work.
It’s amazing that you were finally able to find it.
-I remember you hehe
-I love short film and bizarre media like this but showing this to kids is nightmare fuel!
Not that I *"enjoyed"* this film in the content but in the artistic talent and imagination.
-Who else is here from blameitonjorge?
-I sent an email to the man who played The Taxidermist in the film to see if they know where it aired. His name is Barrie Houghton and can be found credited on IMDB. I will update when (or if) I get an email back. I'm not going to hold my breath though as he's 70+ years old so he very well may not respond.
-Nice. Let's see if we got something new
-So, I did get an email back. Barrie Houghton told me that it was produced by Holloway Film and Television but doesn't know who aired it. I'm going to try and find and email Holloway to see if they have any further information.
​
Here's a link to the image of the email: [https://imgur.com/WwYkFc7](https://imgur.com/WwYkFc7)
​
Edit: It seems that Holloway Film and Television is a school department, so this is all dependent on whether they have information on Simon Pummell. In the book "Arc 1.1: The Future Always Wins" when I search "Simon Pummel Holloway Film and Televsion" I found a passage that stated:
"Simon Pummell works with moving images: features, animations, artist's television, installation, and large-scale projections in live theatre. His recent feature Shock Head Soul premiered in the Orrizonti Section of the Venice Film Festival. The associated gallery installation The Sputnik Effect premieres this year at Rotterdamn's Internation Film Festival."
However, it didn't state anything about Simon working with Holloway so I'm hoping Barrie's information is better than this book's.
-Haha here is something funny: I emailed the autor of this book yesterday because he is the co-writer of Butchers Hook
-Holloway gave me an email to contact him directly with. However, they also said the film wasn't produced at Holloway, so Barrie's information was a little incorrect, but has lead us closer to finding Pummell.
​
Here's Holloway's response:
[https://imgur.com/stgAzxs](https://imgur.com/stgAzxs)
-If nobody can get in contact with Simon Pummel (director) would it be possible to get in contact with anybody else in the credits? I bet even the makeup artist would have some sort of interesting info on the movie.
-I love (and hate) it when it turns out this kind of stuff is one a popular website and was uploaded years ago. It was slightly to the left, and we ran to the right hoping to circle back around.
-whoa!! i’m glad you were able to have (hopefully) found it! this is a lot creepier than i thought it would be ngl haha
-Does seem like something they would show on adult swim, seems a little creepy to be on Nickelodeon. If I saw this as a kid I might’ve had nightmares
-The chances of that airing on a kids network is very slim.
it is however the exact kind of thing that would have aired as a bumper on MTV networks. So it is possible you saw it in the middle of the day in between cartoons while channel flipping.
-That's amazing!
​
Wow, that is some creepy video. IMO, no way Nickelodeon would air it, at least not in Latin America, kids would be traumatised and parents would be pissed off. Maybe Cartoon Network, but that's too avant-guarde. But there are many cable TV channels in Brazil that air these avant-guarde stuff.
BUT they showed it on Anima Mundi 2006, a festival that happens in São Paulo, Brazil! [https://issuu.com/festanimamundi/docs/catalogo\_2006\_completo](https://issuu.com/festanimamundi/docs/catalogo_2006_completo)(page 112). There's a Portuguese title down there (O gancho do açougueiro).
​
There was also a festival on the MIS museum in São Paulo that featured films by Simon Pummell. They also exhibited animations by Aardman. I remember seeing many Aardman animations being aired on Nickelodeon. [https://www1.folha.uol.com.br/fsp/1994/8/20/ilustrada/10.html](https://www1.folha.uol.com.br/fsp/1994/8/20/ilustrada/10.html)
-could you have seen it on adult swim after cartoon network’s programming ended for the day?
-I'm not sure if you saw the comment someone left on Blameitonjorge's video but [is it this](https://vimeo.com/14545752)?
-i was happy to help, i hope it’s the same short!
-Have you seen this short on tv?
-no i did not, i heard about it having connections to the national film board of canada, and i know how to navigate their online database decently, so i went searching. never found it on there, but referenced in a book about experimental animation that featured many nfb animators. seeing the title "butcher's hook" and the date of 1996 got me hopeful. i watched the short and thought that it seems very much like the description. i sent the link off to you and here we are!
-If you look at my other comment in this section you'll see I made a connection from Pummel to the BBC. We know NFB/CBC have the government connection as I detailed back in September. BBC has connections to NFB/CBC (detailed in my other comment here and hence why his name is in the book) who we know supplied Nik with the late night shorts. With Barrie Houghton saying he doesn't know where it aired, and Pummell hard to reach, and all the TV studios resources exhausted, I'd say this may be as close as we can get. We now have fairly solid connections from Pummell's hands to Nik's.
-Dude, I literally watched that video yesterday! Wow, quick fucking response lol
-I haven't seen jorge's video yet, but that's awesome!
-This is Nickelodeon at their most terrifying
-The other possibility that I thought of is that it was something that aired on this sketch show on Nickelodeon called Kablam.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/KaBlam!
-I remember Kablam. I loved this show. I am sure this butcher thing has nothing to do with Kablam. kablam featured a bunch of weird series and not short films
-Wow
Reminded me of Alice 1988
https://youtu.be/Gd03-wm6DDM
-Nickelodeon short story called The Butcher. They were animal bones.
-[deleted]
-I saw that episode. I swear I have seen a different video that met the description. I want to say it was by Jan Svankmajer. He did a lot of animations with real bone animals, animated meat, etc. I couldn't find the exact video but here is an example.
https://youtu.be/Gd03-wm6DDM
-was just about to comment Svankmajer myself! :D
I managed to find another black and white film with bones by him too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vut-25yv4yo
But ultimately OP's find seems to be the best fit
-You just reminded me of this film https://youtu.be/aF8SSyQi-2c
-[removed]
-Yeah. All of his animations are really messed up. I saw Little Otik at a film festival back in the day and remember how messed up it was.
-I know his site has no visible contact link, but I did see this blurb:
“Pummell is currently an Associate Research Professor and the Director of the Lens-Based Media Programme at the Piet Zwart Institute for Graduate Research and Study, WdKA, Rotterdam University.” Maybe you could get in touch through the university?
-Thanks for this Info. I will check it up
-After watching that, I kinda hope it wasn’t aired on a children’s network lol. Otherwise, very interesting
-Did this seriously air on a children's television? It doesn't really seem to make sense. I found the most inappropriate part of the video to be the opening which displays what I think is the corpse of a rabbit...
-yeah, that and the wet specimens of puppies really got me. im into taxidermy myself but using them as puppets seems...wrong, somehow.
-I think a lot of us are just unsensitized to bones by this point, or at least, I am, so the bone puppets didn't really disturb me, but I completely get where you're coming from- that's just *very* immoral.
-I was shocked myself. i don't remember that it was so gory. However, the black and white scene of the animals attacking the butcher seems to match perfectly with my memory. I am looking for a way to contact the director but I have no luck so far. Not even his website seems to have a contact section.
-Amazing! I remember your older post, great to see it's basically been found.
-No way that was aired on children's television EVER
-but in 2000s maybeeeeeeee, finas 1990, thats crazy years..
-If it is true I suspect something meant to be shown on mtv was on nick or something
-Yeah there’s just no way…
-Just dropping a comment here so I get notifs. Ignore me :P
-I won't :p
-How dare you!?
-Wow there is very little here that would make that okay to show to kids. Thanks for making a follow-up though, I really didn't think you'd comeback with an answer
-This is really creepy wtf
-En que parte se Sur América vivías? Yo era una fan absoluta de nickelodeon en esa fecha y te puedo asegurar que nunca habia visto ese video en mi vida, y veía nick un montón.
-in Brazil
-caralho irmão, se eu visse isso quando criança não dormia nunca mais
-Parça se eu tivesse visto um bagulho desse no cartoon de madrugada ia ter dez infarto seloco.
-verdade isso ai,nunca vi esse filme passando na nick nem em nenhum lugar aqui no brasil
-[deleted]
-Its alot creepier than I thought itd be wtf
-The weird thing is that I just watched a vid on this topic , and this was in my feed
-Same here
-Tell me why I just got done watching the lost media files video!
-So uhh i dug a little bit shallow today and gathered information that it was made for Channel 4
Which i think they theorize that it was either published in Channel 2 or that other channel i forgot. I'm pretty sure it's close but not so close that this is it. Maybe the confirmation can help, I haven't seen the origin so I won't say that my facts are real.
-Seems a little dark to be aired in Nickelodeon, its amazing
-A little dark is an understatement. Those were actual dead animals (some could've been household pets) that were being put in jars in piles to be showcased on TV
-Oh trust me, that's not the darkest thing to air on Nickelodeon. Remember that Invader Zim episode "Dark Harvest"?
-Oh i love invader zim, it might be my favorite cartoon.
But even then, the premise is dark, but i feel like its comically, toony dark you know? Its dark for a cartoon but still is a cartoon, while this doesn't seem like something that would air on nickelodeon or any other cartoon channel
-you're right xD not the harvest episode but the others were hilarious
-Yea was def here to see if any one else felt that way also
-Yeah, while this does seem to fit pretty well, it just doesn't seem like something Nickelodeon would air. Something that's simply "skeleton animals rebel against their killer" doesn't seem all that dark for Nickelodeon. On the other hand, "Skeleton animals rebel against their killer, skeletonize most of his body, keep him hooked up to a life support apparatus so he can suffer, then plant a tree on his remains" definitely does seem way to dark to have been aired on any Nickelodeon channel, even with cultural differences and all.
-I totally have to agree with you. This short is way too creepy. However, this is how I remember it. I remember seeing this a bunch of times on Nickelodeon. There is a big chance of this being a Mandela effect.
But don't forget that Nickelodeon was totally different in the early 2000s. It was more experimental and weird.
-It could have aired on MTV. I once saw the mara short film version of friends kafka's metamorphosis as a bumper. They would also do short creepy stop motion bumps. And, at least on my cable box, they were only a few channels away from Nickelodeon and cartoon Network.
so there is a non-zero chance you saw this while channel surfing while watching cartoons and it just stuck in your head because you thought it was more stop motion..
Could you have seen it on MTV South America?
-Yes maybe. So far the only info that I got was that this short was aired on Channel 4 in the UK.
-Nickelodeon is owned by Viacom parent company of MTV so it's not in their best interest to have JUST a network for kids. To diversify their audience, their older programming block was literally age-adapted throughout the day from "kid" friendly Nick Jr in the early morning to regular cartoons and shows that tweens enjoy in the afternoon, more teen oriented & darker shows later in the day (with SNICK having an extra couple hours of stuff like Are you Afraid of the Dark) and finally ending with "grown-up" shows with Nick-at-Nite.
It's the story of aging and life essentially broadcasted en masse daily, from awake/birth to sleep/death in the span of a single day. Kind of weird when you think about it but that's how they make money.
-Idk if you know about RebelTaxi but he made a video about obscure Cartoon Network shows, he said in that video that he once saw a strange foreign black and white movie with two kids in some sorta swamp being broadcasted there while his TV network info said that he was watching Tom & Jerry, later he discovered that what he saw that day was, in fact, a 60s russian movie about WWII that aired by mistake on CN due to the signal being swaped with Turner Classic Movies, both TV channels being owned by Turner Broadcasting.
Couldn't something similar happened with this short like MTV and Nickelodeon swapping their signals for a few seconds or just someone broadcasting the short on the wrong channel by mistake?
-Actually, I can see that. Saw the short and was immediately reminded of MTV of the 90s. It is possible that it was swapped with a different channel. It could also be something called broadcast signal intrusion. Yes, I looked it up because your comment reminded me of incidents such as those on Disney.
-Yeah man totally get with you mean about it fitting the weird late night vibe of 90s young adult TV. It has the vibe of a Korn music video.
-That sounds super familiar to me for some reason. Feel.like a remember something vaguely similar to that description with bright orange and blue colors with claymation. Remember it mostly being a darker blue kitchen so the color coming in my head is predominantly blue. That's all I can remember of it right now.
-Ah, I remember when you made your original post, none of my animation friends could figure it out. I am so glad you found it! ...and horrified now that I have watched it
-Cool. I will try to confirm with the director if this got aired somewhere. And yeah. this short film is pretty disturbing.
-parker has a pretty good idea, maybe you should try the other people in the credits
-If you’re hitting a wall finding him, maybe try some of the other names in the credits?
-Could you message the author to confirm or deny if it had gotten aired anywhere?
-Yes, I will try to contact him!
-hi! can't say if i've seen this around in the thread, but a there's a comment on the short film from Melissa back in 2016 that confirms that this short was made for Channel4 (and knowing all of the theories between CBC, Nickelodeon, and the NFB, now its confirmed that it was at least produced for television) . [https://letterboxd.com/film/butchers-hook/reviews/by/activity/](https://letterboxd.com/film/butchers-hook/reviews/by/activity/)
not sure if that helps, but I thought i'd mention it\^\^
-And also there’s a title card in the beginning that says it was made for channel 4
-It remind me of a short horror story about a sausage maker saves money by using small animals instead of pork and their ghosts kill him
-ghost burger?
-I remember a campfire song kind of like that from when I was a cub scout called 'Jonny Rebec' or something that was about a guy who made a sausage machine and used the neighbors pets in it and one night it broke so he climbed inside it to fix it and his wife pulled the cord to get a sausage not knowing that he was in it. It was a pretty dark song for kids of that age.
​
edit: it's called 'Johnny Rebeck'. I was close.
the lyrics were:
Away out in the forest
There lived a mean old man
His name was Mr. Johnny Rebeck
And he could surely plan
All the neighbors' cats and dogs
Were always at his feet
So he invented a machine
That turned them all to meat
Hey Mr. Johnny Rebeck,
How could you be so mean
We told you you'd be sorry
For inventing that machine
All the neighbors' cats and dogs
Will never more be seen
They've all been ground to sausages
In Johnny Rebeck's machine
One day a boy came walking,
He walked into the store
He bought a pack of sausages
And placed them on the floor
Then he began to whistle,
He whistled up a tune
And all the little sausages,
They danced around the room
Hey Mr. Johnny Rebeck,
How could you be so mean
We told you you'd be sorry
For inventing that machine
All the neighbors' cats and dogs
Will never more be seen
They've all been ground to sausages
In Johnny Rebeck's machine
One day the darn thing busted,
The darn thing wouldn't go
So Johnny Rebeck climbed inside
To see what made it so
His wife she had a nightmare
While walking in her sleep
She gave the crank a great big yank
And Johnny Rebeck was meat
Hey Mr. Johnny Rebeck,
How could you be so mean
We told you you'd be sorry
For inventing that machine
All the neighbors' cats and dogs
Will never more be seen
They've all been ground to sausages
In Johnny Rebeck's machine
-WTF was that??? What kind of song is that?
Yuck. I hate that idea.
If anyone tries to kidnap my pets they'll be dead. Not joking.
-I don't know where it first came from but I remember it creeped me out as a kid
-I've spent an extensive amount of time researching this It was originally Dunderbeck which is what my grandfather knew it as but has many variations. Originally it was sung in a mock German-English accent. I think it was published in the 1880s (1884 maybe?)
-My grandma used to sing that song to me back when I was a child. It's called "Johnny Verbeck" and it goes like this
Once there was a Dutchman
His name was Johnny Verbeck
He made the finest sausages and sauerkraut and speck.
He made the finest sausages that'll evermore be seen,
Till one day he invented a sausage makin machine.
Oh, Mr. Johnny Verbeck how could you be so mean,
I told you, you'd be sorry for inventin' that machine
now all the neighbors cats and dogs will nevermore be seen
For they'll be ground to sausages in Johnny Verbeck's machine.
One day a boy came walkin' a walkin' thru the door.
He bought a pound of sausages and laid them on the floor.
The boy began to whistle, He whistled up a tune.
And all the little sausages went dancin' round the room.
One day the machine got busted the darn thing wouldn't go,
So Johnny Verbeck he climbed inside to see what made it so.
His wife she had a nightmare, went walkin' in her sleep
She gave it a yank a deuce of crank and Johnny Verbeck was meat!
-I wonder how this song came to be known as a children's song in some circles...
-Children's songs and stories used to be incredibly dark. They were teaching tools. Modern endings are like "and then they escaped the witch and burned down her house", medieval endings were just flat out "then the witch ate them".
-I've spent an extensive amount of time researching this It was originally Dunderbeck which is what my grandfather knew it as but has many variations. Originally it was sung in what would call an offensive mock German-English accent. I think it was published in the 1880s (1884 maybe?) It was a comedic song but still pretty dark.
-My grandma sang that to me as well!
-We sang it at camp!
-yeah when I was in elementary school, kids would sing this to scare others! I haven't thought about this in such a long time
-We did too.
-holy fuck thats gruesome
-Yeah. I didn’t like it.
-Why wouldn’t the ghosts of the bigger animals also kill him?
-[deleted]
-I haven’t read it but my guess is that he wouldn’t be killing the big animals. He wouldn’t slaughter the cows and pigs himself, he’d get carcasses from the abattoir so he wouldn’t be killing anything, just preparing the sausages. Stealing a dog from the street, however, seems a little darker.

-The way you can't get the idea from a slightly erroneous comment is astonishing.
-Wait what did he say? Considering that it got 38 downvotes
-I dont really remember but the comment was something about this commentors grammar and stuff??
-That's so exciting! I can't wait to see it!
-Wait! First I have to confirm where this short film got aired in south america.

t3_cp0vpz | -The movie begins with a scene in an airplane. The main character sits next to a business man and saves contact with him. The airplane goes to China/some asian country and they end up meeting again there. The business man pays a hooker to hang around the main character but he's unaware of her being one, they spend the night together but nothing sexual happened iirc. He falls in love with her but later realises she's a hooker
Later on in the movie, he went to Africa to raise funds for some organisation I think, he became friends with an important mafioso of sorts and later got kidnapped. He got released after the kidnappers found out he had contacts with the mafioso.
The movie ends with him returning to his wife, taking some tool on his head which can detect emotions and he decides he loves his wife most

-Character name was Baby Ray. This has been bugging me for like three weeks. The internet is amazing.
-Silence of the Lambs?
-Could it be from Phantom of the Paradise? Similar to Rocky Horror feel, and I think there's a character with a white corset and blonde hair?
-[deleted]
-[deleted]
-Maybe a suspense or art film. I think the character was a minion of the main antagonist. Probably 90s or early 2000s but that could be way off. My first to guesses were "Brick" and "rocky horror" so maybe something with a similar feeling or aesthetic to those. Also the guy kinda reminds me of Kronk from Emperors new groove.

t3_rczgs4 | -My partner has been trying to find a book from this childhood but can only remember a few things about it. He was around 12 when he read it. The book has a narrator explaining how to do things as the book went along and was trying to convince you to not go to the end of the book. The narrator tires you pay you to not turn the page by offering you $500 at some point. There might be something at the beginning about a kid finding a book but he's not sure. It's not the one with Grover. Any help with this would be amazing, I'd love to surprise him. Thanks in advance!
Edit: He would have read this in the mid to late 90's
-Is it "The Monster at the End of This Book," by Grover?
-Sadly no, I had that one as a kid and loved it. It was my first thought when he first told me about it. Thanks for the suggestion though!
-Sounds like a Lemony Snicket bit. Is it one of the series of unfortunate events books??
-I know it's not those because I've read them, but it's a great series! Thanks for the suggestion!
-Thats what I thought of too
-[deleted]
-Could it be The Name Of This Book Is Secret?
-At any point does the "narrator" offer money to not go to the end of the book? That's the thing he remembers the most. This looks promising though so I'll ask him when he gets off work.
Edit: I looked at the publication dates and I don't think this is it, he would have read it in the mid to late 90's. It seemed so promising!!

t3_anw777 | -Like in bird box, we never see what the monster looks like, I remember it being called something with the word “love” named after some guy who’d write in this style.
-To be even more clear, I think the word you’re looking for is “Lovecracftian”.
-Horror plus "love" brings to mind H.P. Lovecraft, who wrote a great many horror stories, some of which were adapted to movies - but I don't think that's quite what you're talking about (though the monsters in some of those movies weren't seen - or at least not seen until the end.)

t3_cfx6er | -My mom saw a movie when she was younger and she can remember the plot line quite well but we can't find it anywhere. The movie is about two brothers, one isn't 100% and the other a jerk, they get stranded on a campus. It is during the holidays so there are only a few people there. On campus is a blind girl. The jerk brother tells the girl to play the moonlight sonata on the piano to calm down the other brother. People start dying and you think that the jerk is the killer but it turns out it's the other brother.

-Michael Jackson called it "The Sizzle". I kid you not.
-Caesura is one fancypants music theory term for a silence. It does tend to denote one outside of the normal counted meter however.
Rest is a term to indicate play nothing for the given (fraction of) beat(s), but it doesnt imply the entire ensemble going silent at the same time.
I've got no audio to listen to your example but if its pop/rock/etc and the silence fits within the beats, then colloquially as a former guy-in-bands I would probably call that a break, but that too is not precisely and exclusively what you want since it's also used for non silences e.g. drum break

t3_848l4c | -As the title says, it's a movie where a yellow-brownish dust storm/cloud or sand storm/cloud is the "villain". Anything that gets touched by it disintegrates, people, buildings, etc. At some point some characters drive out of a tunnel onto a street with lots of sand on the side, and then the cloud comes and they try to escape it. The cloud/storm goes all over the world and obliterates stuff.
It was probably something horror/mystery/apocalypsy. It almost certainly came out more than 5 years ago, I don't remember any actors in it or where it played. It's not "The Mist", I don't remember any monsters showing up. I'm not sure whether the cloud was sentient or just moved randomly, or where it came from or how it ended.
Any leads would be really helpful, thanks!
EDIT: u/solidstatemasterrace found it, it was The Day the Earth Stood Still with Keanu Reeves!
-Was it hi-tech (at the time) animation? Plot fits [Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qUXVOfdGE4o)
-Pretty cool, but it was The Day the Earth Stood Still after all : )
-the day after tomorrow keanu reeves

t3_nn7doo | -I don't remember if I heard about it on a podcast, watched a video or read an article, but I've checked all my feeds and found nothing so I'm asking here. There's a chance I'm getting details wrong or mixed up, but here's all I remember:
* A teenage boy was killed by his friend/ acquantaince, happened in America, maybe late 80s or early 90s
* I don't remember if it was the victim or the killer or both, but they were basically homeless and doing drugs
* They might have been goth, metalheads or otherwise scene kids, which press at the time saw as a cause for their death/ motivation for killing (might have been some satanic panic elements to it, there were lots of moral panicky type rumors around the murder)
* It later turned out either the victim or the killer or both came from a normal middle class home, his parents basically threw him out when he didn't perform to their standards at school (I think I remember it being mentioned that he played some sports at school and did fine, but not exceptionally, and maaaybe that that had been one of the sources of his parents disappointment)
It's not much, and depressingly there might be more than one such case, but I hope someone can help me find it.

t3_di9ilh | -It was a CD we had on computers back in daycare way back when I was little (circa 2001), I remember it had lots of games but one game that stood out to me was like a Sokoban/Boulder Dash-style puzzle game called Six Feet Under or something where you're underground and digging through levels and avoiding monsters. Any idea what this compilation was called?
-no, but if you can identify it I still have all my shareware CD's for the Magazines of the 90's
-Got a list or some pictures? The game itself is indeed a Windows 3.1 shareware game called Six Feet Under from Enque Software from 1994.
-not really but if you can identify a date and magazine that contained it on the cd I can look it up.
I have over 200 CD's full of shareware/freeware from the 90's and early 2000's
-I appreciate it, I couldn't hope to know where to start though as far as which CD it would be specifically. In hindsight it could be any number of them that had the game on it.
-Yeah I was going to catalog them someday but as it is, these days most the old dos/early windows games are tough to setup and get working on modern machines. I will probably never get it done....
-I'd at-least rip the isos and upload them to archive.org or something.

t3_7bahho | -Hey, so I'm looking for this song but I can only remember details of the music video.
White guy is with a girl in a motel room. I think he's in a black jacket. The music video isn't one shot but it's made to look like one. It's sort of a time loop. Each verse he ends up back in the motel with the girl. Last chorus has him dancing outside of the motel. It was popular in Ontario, Canada a couple years back. I don't remember the lyrics but the theme of them is sort of like an addicted to your love can't leave you type thing.
Appreciate the help, thank you.
-teenage dream katy perry?
-This is probably a few years older than what you're looking for and only a partial match to your description but is it 'Maroon 5 - Wake Up Call'?
-[cinnamon chasers - luv delux](https://youtu.be/Z8Y1MalRrDc)
-Nope. But I really like this song thanks for sharing it.
-What Do You Mean - Justin Bieber?
-Nope, but I checked it out and wow that's similar. Motel set up is very similar. It's a more fast paced up tempo song though. But thank you.

t3_u481b6 | -It was pretty popular as it came on music channels alot about maybe 2 years ago ish. Its kinda dance music sounding.
The thing that sticks out in my brain, is one of the patients is laying down and his heart beats out of his chest and he freaks out. But the doctor is just super happy and manical. The heart is heart shaped tho. And not like graphical or anything. You can just see the shape of it. And its real life actors and actresses, not anime or cartoon.
Other then that i dont seem to remember too much more. It's one of the more stranger music videos and thats why i remember it more then the actually music haha
If you have any clue what this song is let me know and thank you for reading :D

t3_ktfqo4 | -I read this story within the last five-ish years. I can't remember if it was in a book or online.
A mother is making poor choices throughout the story and bad things almost happen to her little girl. Say she steps outside to smoke, and the little girl *almost* climbs into a bathtub that's filled too hot or deep. So you're always going "oh no oh no oh no" but then everything turns out okay. The mother is distracted because she's planning to leave the little girl that evening to ?meet a man? Maybe? But in the end she kind of snaps out of her distraction/carelessness and chooses to stay home and, you know, actually parent her daughter.

t3_qf0hry | -scene one: this guy, probably drunk or coked out, i want to say accidentally shoots himself in the foot, but at the same time i believe he did it on purpose to prove a point…
scene two: someone then flees from the “party” i believe after hearing the gunshot, only to stop in the middle of the road with two headlights coming their way, only for two bikers to pass on either side of the person.
i want to say it was more of a dark comedy but could very well be some sort of thriller/action movie. i personally probably would’ve seen this around 2005-07

t3_e7f75n | -Platform(s): PC
Genre: Retro text-based
Estimated year of release: 2015-2018
Graphics/art style: DOS-style text only
Notable characters: N/A
Notable gameplay mechanics: The game was largely text describing the drive/how many miles you had gone along with, once in a while, reaching a city. I believe the drive stretched from Nebraska to Indiana?
-Was it like Oregon Trail by any chance? Might be a clue for the genre.
-Thanks for the response. It was a free indie game, much more minimal than Oregon Trail. The only actions I can recall are driving and fueling up the car. I think the latter was optional (i.e., you couldn’t run out of gas).

t3_os0ddx | -I read this book 4-5 years ago and almost definitely found it on the "new books" shelf at my college library. I feel like the author was female, but I'm not 100% sure.
The plot follows the main character as he climbs Mt Everest. He's not really as prepared as he should be. He's climbing Mt Everest because he runs a daredevil/adventure video blog/website with a friend. He's supposed to be getting footage of the climb to post there.
Main character is haunted by a time he was trapped while spelunking in a cave (this is where I learned the Welsh word cwm) and it filled with water. He was trapped with a guide for a long time. He gains some fame from his rescue, which might be why he started the adventure website?
At some point while climbing Everest, the main character starts experiencing third man syndrome, which is when a climber starts seeing an extra person in the climbing party. Apparition/spirit/hallucination basically.
I remember the book giving lots of factual details about prepping for the climb and the process of getting to the mountain. But, I was teaching a Mount Everest mini-unit to a class of third graders at the time so that might just be my brain adding things in post.

t3_n1r644 | -I'm trying to remember a website from around the mid 2000s that did parodies of popular songs by re-wording the songs and creating an accompanying cartoon music video. I remember one being done to the song 'Candy Shop' that I'm pretty sure had Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen (cartoon versions) in it. I think they were generally M or R rated?

There was a main character that you play and every level was like a guantlet with waves of enemies and at the end of the level there was a boss. You could change the character you play as and you could upgrade your weapons. And the most important aspect is that the characters looked like Funko Pops. There was weapon boxes that drop out of enemies that you could pick up. If anyone can help me with this, I would really appreciate it.

t3_eg5w8f | -I believe this movie was produced in the mid-90s, but maybe it was even the late-80s or early 2000s. In the movie, the kid—now an adult and narrating—is chased by his bully into an abandoned factory. The kid somehow manages to maneuver the bully into this room within the abandoned factory, then get out of the room, and shut the door behind him, locking the bully in.
Adult narrating says that he intentionally left his bully in there to die, knowing that he would die of starvation or dehydration. Somehow, for some reason, adult actually goes back to this same abandoned room and finds no body, or otherwise finds out that bully isn’t dead. That’s all I remember.

A company can 'win' a customer, and the competitor 'lost' a customer. From the customer's perspective they have 'substituted' or switched the supplier or product.
-Yeah I mean in terms in winning. Is there a specific word for it? Or winning is it? If a company manages to keep there customers it's retention. What if a company manages to acquire some other company's customers?

t3_831chn | -It starts out with a type of truck horn, plays a quick little beat of 5 repetitively for a measure (kinda like doodoodooDOOdoo doodoodooDOOdoo), and plays the horn again twice with the beat still going in the background. the horn sounds eerily similar to the horn the truck has at the beginning of [this meme](https://instagram.com/p/Bf8vEvoAVTq/), which is what started all of this in the first place. I really don’t know how to explain it accurately, besides the horn sounding exactly like the horn in that video. I’m assuming it’s early 2000’s because that’s probably the last time i heard it, but it could’ve been 90’s as well. I think it’s pop-punk with a female singer, but i’m not positive of anything.

t3_cr0ist | -So this video isn't very old. I'd reckon I saw it around last year or the year before.
It starts off with the guy talking about Anime and how much of a degenerate he is for watching it.
But somewhere around the halfway mark, the memes stop and he started talking about how Anime numbs his pain and memories from the Soviet Union Era.
He then recollects a story in a traumatic fashion about how he had to betray his comrades and his best friend for salvation as tense music starts to get louder.
One line I remember from the video was "The only thing I felt when I pulled the trigger, was the recoil." Or maybe it was "The only thing I felt when I shot you in the back, was the recoil." I forgot exactly how it went, but it should be something along these lines.
Then it ends with him sobbing into his microphone.
I remembered liking the video on youtube, but I cannot find it now, maybe it was removed?
Thanks in advance.

t3_ouody1 | -Hello! I'm looking for a video that would have been posted to Youtube between 2010 and 2020, though I think it was closer to the latter. The whole thing is a guy spending the night in a forest in England (at least I think it was England) that is believed to be haunted. He mentions that he walked pretty far off the trail to set his campsite and sets up a deer-cam to record the tent.
The night is pretty mundane and nothing really happens except for one weird moment when the guy goes over footage of himself leaving the tent and looking around in the middle of the night. He says he doesn't remember doing that, though he doesn't blame it on anything creepy.
I remember watching this vid some time ago and kept wanting to go back to it (mainly so I could look at the guy's other videos).

t3_u78oyr | -Hello, I'm looking for a game I played on my father's Windows 95 or 98 when I was a little kid in the mid-2000s.
**Platform(s):** Windows 95 or 98
**Genre:** RTS or RPG-like game that's at a top-down view.
**Estimated year of release:** Late 80s - Mid 90s
**Graphics/art style:** Pixelated art style with 16-bit graphics but at a top-down view
**Notable characters:** A evil wizard, maybe a skeleton wizard?
**Notable gameplay mechanics:**
* You could choose between two kingdoms one had a blue sky and looked beautiful.
* The other kingdom was dark with purple, red, and black colors and had a lot of skull imagery.
* You could play characters respective to the two kingdoms.
* There was a sandbox mode where you could create your own lands and add items there.
**Other details:**
I played this game in the mid-2000s so I might be remembering things wrong and I played the game when I was like 4 or maybe 5? So take this with a grain of salt.
-Maybe **Blood and Magic**? Most campaigns had a choice between a good and evil side. There’s no level editor, but when you finish the game you do unlock random map mode.
-Total Annihilation: Kingdoms or Magic & Mayhem?
-[deleted]
-One of the early [Heroes of Might and Magic games](https://www.mobygames.com/game-group/heroes-of-might-and-magic-series/offset,50/so,1d/) (I linked to the last page of the list)? Many had a choice between good and evil campaigns, and they had a scenario creator.
-Thats the one! The second one to be more exact. Thank you! It is Solved!
-You said: 'Thats the one'. Is this solved? If so, please [mark it as solved](https://www.reddit.com/r/tipofmyjoystick/comments/h0tws8/how_to_mark_a_post_as_solved_as_a_comment/). To make it easier, you can just reply `solved: ` followed by the title of your game. Check [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/tipofmyjoystick/wiki/setting_flair) for more information.
Example comment: `solved: Game Title`

t3_ndtxg4 | -The book I am looking for was in a middle school library in 2014, leading me to believe it is teen fiction. (It might have had a blue cover at the time.)
All I can remember about it is that it may have taken place in a modern setting. The female main character is adopted but didn't know, she was a artist that loved color. Also, the world that this book takes place in has people with shadow like powers and were shunned into hiding. Main character was also shadow person later in plot. Thanks yall!

t3_evf2ne | -[Mobile][2013ish] I played the game on an ipod around 2013 or so. The game is about a ninja in black clothes with a belt on (starting out white but as you level it progresses to black) that dodges different type of giant fruits and can use different abilities (which you can upgrade with coins) that fall from the sky like landmines and fireworks. You can unlock different characters and backgrounds using drgaonfruits that you can earn by cutting them up with powerups. The dragonfruits look something like a red pineapple.
Thanks in advance!

t3_5pauwg | -**Platform(s):** Windows DOS, I played it on Windows 98
**Genre:** 3rd person shooter
**Estimated year of release:** 1990-2000
**Graphics/art style:** 3D graphics, varies from colourful to darker/realistic art. Overall it had a cartoony style, especially the characters, who appeared almost like karikatures of stereotypes.
**Notable characters:** It had many playable characters. these playable characters also made up the enemy roster in gameplay. the character roster was large (definitely 10+, if not 20+ or much more). The characters were quite silly overall. The ones that I can remember are: a humanoid red ant, a mafia member, a pizza deliverer, a very fast pram or lady with a shopping cart(can't quite remember) and a typical soldier. All characters had ranged attacks, varieng from guns (soldier/mafia) to spitting green acid (red ant), to throwing rattlers (pram). I believe they all had their own voicelines, which were quite silly and stereotypical aswel.
I don't believe there were bosses, no notable bosses at least.
**Notable gameplay mechanics:** It was a 3D 3rd person shooter, horizontal aiming was done by the player, vertical aiming was either not possible or done automaticly from what i can remember. the gameplay consisted of fairly large levels that you had to shoot your way through. I cannot remember if there was a campaign or not, but i believe characters had to be unlocked (I remember really wanting to play the red ant character, but couldnt for a while)
The most/only memorable levels were:
-A city with brown brick buildings and catwalks around the buildings that you could climb. There would be a square somewhere with something notable at the end of this long rectangle of a square.
-A green, colourful map with slopes and many open "chambers" either separated by toy blocks or green blocks.
**Other details:** This seems to have been a fairly unknown game, as I've done a rediculous amount of searching online. There is no doubt that most of the scrolling that my scrollwheel has done, has been scrolling through google images looking for this game. There is no art or anything I can find, I didn't have a floppy disk of the game either, as it was fully installed on the pc, which is long gone, including its Harddrive.
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated, the most notable thing to keep in mind is the large roster of silly characters.
-Did a fair bit of hunting, this was tough to find, but I'm definite it's [H.E.D.Z.: Head Extreme Destruction Zone](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C00KOy86Vu4). It has all the characters you mentioned, for ex. [here's the old lady with the shopping cart you mentioned](http://www.mobygames.com/images/shots/l/604523-h-e-d-z-head-extreme-destruction-zone-windows-screenshot-time.jpg).
-You are correct, it is H.E.D.Z, thanks!
-[H.E.D.Z.: Head Extreme Destruction Zone?](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p6a-ZvwlSFg)
-That's it! Thank you so much. I'll be installing DOSbox now and get some nostalgia in!

-Were some of the characters Milk and Cheese?
-I don't know I'm afraid, I can't remember any of their names. What game would you be referring to, were it the case?
-I can't remember if they were the main characters or moddable characters in a game, but I know I had a friend back in the day who liked to play as them in an arena shooter style game. Let me do some research.
-I've no clue what the objective of the game was, it may very well have been an arena shooter. Thank you for taking your time, I hope you're able to find some info.
-Afraid I couldn't find anything, I'm sorry to say. If I was in contact with said friend, I'd probably be able to help you better, but unfortunately, I'm not.

-[Silla Dream - The Silent Treatment](https://youtube.com/watch?v=REa39iTR2ts)
-Fiona Apple is one of my fave. Vampire Again by Marlon Williams is real good too. This goes more into folk/freak folk but the bands Dead Man’s Bones and Timber Timbre are faves as well for me.
-Elysian Fields - Tides Of The Moon
-Fire by Black Pumas

-Thanks, I'll have to do a dive into them. Maybe a bit folkier than I meant but that's not a bad thing. Do you know Thalia Zadek? It's sort of a similar feel.
-Check out [Phoebe Bridgers](https://youtu.be/Tw0zYd0eIlk), she has a great lofi melancholy sound.

t3_cy67di | -Okay. It's basically like a chat room but you can move your character around by clicking. There were multiple rooms, one was definitely like a bar, and your avatar just kind floats around the background image. You can upload any picture or gif for your avatar, but I remember that the default one is sort of just a colored blob with a face!

-Nope :( it wasn’t like 3D-looking at all
-It wasn't palace chat was it? It ended quite a while ago but I think there were a few servers clinging to life for a while
-ahhh no it's not that, but it's pretty similar to that but a little more new-looking
-Seems to fit the criteria, would have never guessed!
EDIT : I guess it's called "The Palace"?
-Posting another message because I think I know what you mean -- is the game you're referring to called Worlds Exploration?
-sadly, no :(
-Oh, alright. ;(
Was worth a try!
-Was thinking Pou, but not sure if you can upload any image to it!
-Haha that's not it, but that's adorable! Thanks :)
-Do you remember where the game was hosted? Was it just a site by itself?
-yep, it was a stand-alone thing. it was pretty popular like 5 years ago which is when i played it!

t3_een5y8 | - Computer game, could have been made in the 80's but I played it as a child in the early 90's. I think it was on a CD but wouldn't be surprised to learn it was a disk.
I think the astronaut was in a white spacesuit with their helmet on throughout the game. I remember it starting on a space ship or station and then having later levels on some kind of planet but they could have been alternating. I'm picturing the indoor levels being bottom to top and the outdoor levels being side-scrolling but I'm not convinced it wasn't entirely side-scrolling.
It was Fire Mario-esque in that there was a lot of jumping and shooting and was an all ages type thing, no grown-up themes. The character was equipped with a laser gun that I think shot purple beams, I don't think it was upgradable.
I could be entirely wrong about this but I remember the artwork being "bubbly" despite heavy pixalation. The indoor levels had a mostly gray background and the outdoor levels had a sandy surface and black backdrop with lots of stars.
If there was a storyline, I can't remember what it was. I feel like maybe you were lost in space or on some sort of individual style exploring mission.

-Monuments of Mars?

Maybe Crystal Caves, but he wears no astronaut suit?
https://www.mobygames.com/game/dos/crystal-caves/screenshots
-Neither one, but I appreciate the guess.
-Commander Keen : Marooned on Mars?
-Nope, seems closer than the other Commander Keen stuff but that wasn't it either.
-Commander Keen?
-Thanks for the guess! Commander Keen looks pretty similar to the one I'm thinking of but I can't find any screen shots of the scenery I'm remembering.
I'm seeing lots of Earth-ish style stuff in Commander Keen (trees, underground, dirt and grass surfaces) and I remember this game as being all space/space ship.
I also think the character I'm remembering was in a white spacesuit with a helmet, never having a visible face.
*Edit for spelling
-There were several games in the Commander Keen series that came out around that time. He wore a football helmet that kind of looked like a spacesuit.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commander_Keen_in_Aliens_Ate_My_Babysitter
-Not it, but I appreciate you mentioning a specific one to double check, thanks!
-I'm remembering now that the indoor levels likely had windows through which you could see space (blackness with stars).

t3_l3uras | -Hello!
I've been stuck on this all day but when I was younger I vividly remember going to the computer lab and getting to play this game. I remember it was meant to teach students about physics by way of experimentation. The graphics were all photorealistic with the grass being particularly distinctive to me. There was a fulcrum level involved at some point with several other "modes" or levels to learn more. Any info about what it could be would be GREATLY appreciated. Happy to answer questions!
-When you started the game was there like a rabbit that I guess yelled?
-Not sure. It doesn't sound too familiar.
-Did you have a certain game in mind?

t3_lywvil | -This is the only character I can remember, but the show/movie was definitely medieval themed and I think may have had something to do with Camelot, but that could be wrong. I think dragons were involved, but I might be mixing it up with another show/movie because it’s been a long time.
Edit: the knight character wears a helmet like this (https://bottega.avalonceltic.com/rep_immagini/prod/elmo_nasal_spang.jpg) and carries a sword. I don’t remember if he has a shield or not.
UPDATE: it’s Dragon’s Lair! So, a game, not show or movie.

t3_unjr43 | -"The street was foggy like an opium den; not just smoke filled and dim, but heavy and incapacitating. It pulled you down, slowly."
Unfortunately, the line is all I have. I found it written on a notecard in the back of a drawer. Very Raymond Chandler-esque but I can't find anything via google. I downloaded the pdf's of the only 2 Chandler books I've read, The Big Sleep and Farewell, My Lovely, and searched several keywords but came up empty.
It sounds like something out of hard-boiled detective novel. I've tried searching authors, snippets and variations but I just get links about and the history of opium dens.
Appreciate the help!
-[deleted]
-Just checked a pdf, but it wasn't there.
-If it was on a note card, could it have been something someone wrote themselves, like for a book that has not been published? Just a thought, I don't know under what circumstances you found it, but maybe whoever wrote it down was working on a detective novel or something.
-Sorry, I definitely wasn't clear about that. I wrote it, it's absolutely my hand writing. But I do not remember writing it.
-Ahhhhhhhhhh, gotcha!

t3_mowr8k | -Hi. My name is dave.
And i always have the feeling that when i am picking music to listen too i miss a genre,sort of music or artist which i will feel in my soul.
I love music, beginner audiophile even. But i always miss the right songs i wanna listen too.
I love a lot. From september by earth wind and fire to every queen song to have ever be put on record. From rap, electronic, soul, rock, alternative, pop or even metal. As long as it feels good to listen too i do.
But why is it that i never found that song, genre or artist that manages to truly touch my music-soul?
Anyone else had such a feeling before discovering band "x" or song "y"? Anyone have any good music suggestions for me to try out?
If i google my question i come out empty handed so i wanna know if im alone in this or not. I feel like an idiot posting this.
But i am done questioning my own sanity.
Let me know! Gr dave

-Find out who your favourite artists were/are influenced by. Maybe your current favourites are expanding upon musical ideas that somebody laid out before them, in a way that you'd prefer.
For example, I grew up a big fan of the white stripes and the black keys. They both frequently cited Captain Beefheart as a musical influence. Beefheart was it for me
-i’ve found that a lot of the music that really gets me going is foreign music. before i decided to actively look into foreign music, i had never heard any of my now favorite songs
BUCK-TICK is my favorite band of all time

here’s also a fun german song by falco haha

-my experience is as I get older those moments get fewer and further between as its all trial and error
I'd recommend the album "Story of a ghost" by Phish, just cause you didn't mention anything like that in your post. Give it a try. [https://youtu.be/1PaFTv76QXM](https://youtu.be/1PaFTv76QXM)
-is it a particular sound that you can imagine out past the edges of what you've already heard? what artists, albums, songs, or even parts of songs seem to come closest?
-Roxy Music - True to Life.
First listen to the original, then demo. The Avalon album, breathtaking. That was it for me.
-Everyone's soul gets touched by a different song, to say it in your words. That's why a Google search or the likes don't work for you.
And even for you, it changes over time. The reason my favourite song is my favourite song isn't just that I like every single bit of it. I also happened to find it when I was in a bad spot and it helped me get myself out of there - had I found it 3 years before that, it may never have stuck with me in that way.
I recommend checking out the "related artists" of bands you like, if your music app has that. Listen to a song or two from each album, unless you really can't stand the first one 😆 That's how I find new music, so much actually that I can limit myself to the newer releases. And I think I'm finding songs that do what you described, for me. Maybe one every two months.

-That last question is the right question man. I think you could be right and im over saturated with music. I did (before corona) go to my local record shop and brouwse some lp's (which i adore!). And it seemed no issue then.
Now it is. And i know song i like even songs i love
But i never feel in the mood to listen to anything. The mood is always for a song i dont know excists.
I dont know why i feel like im missing out. But its like you have an itch that you cant scratch, but the itch is on the inside. I dont know man
-I never experienced what you have mentioned, unless I guess before I realized how much music (in general) meant to me. But that was a lot of time ago.
So, having that in mind, I can't guarantee this will touch your music-soul. But it definitely reached to mine so I'm sharing: [Gillian Welch - Revelator](https://youtu.be/rV_uFpbXZ9k).
And following with that artist there's this [performance](https://youtu.be/gxPTQDP2bRQ) that really gets me.
I hope you find what you are serching for, whatever it might be. I'd suggest checking folk/acoustic stuff if you haven't, at least for me when it hits, it hits a spot few other genres manage to do (even if they can).
-Hi. I just listened to the song you send me. And its beautiful! Not what i think i meant but it is gorgeous.
It reminds me of sleeptalking by nona. Which i recommend if you like the song you just send me.
-Check out i dream a highway by gillian welch too
Give naked in the river with the creator by lvl up a try.
