I've been with Nexpo since the beginning and saw this the day it came out. It's still one of my favorites. "Contingency" upset me so deeply I was unsettled for three days. I'm old enough to remember when the five channels we had went off the air for the night with the national anthem playing and sometimes with scenes from Vietnam (when the war was still going on), and I can't imagine the horror of seeing something like that at the time with, as Nexpo said, no way to fact check it or anyone to call to find out what was going on. If there were, say, Soviet paratroopers landing on my lawn that would be one thing, I'd at least have some solid intel, but a creepy overnight government PSA telling me to off myself and my "littlest patriots" (oh my GOD) for America, and everyone is doing it? Christ.

The Moon was awoken by the moon landings. It seems it can control electromagnetic waves and uses this to insert messages into media and electronic devices to probe out weaknesses and attack humanity, which it either wants to rule over or exterminate (eat our souls?). It appears to also have a limited ability to influence minds at night. After a few decades of attempts to soften up humanity and create sleeper agents, it goes for broke and "hatches", revealing its form in the night sky, after which it can directly control the minds of anyone who looks at it and it begins sending its thralls to force everyone to look at it. It seems to be a Lovecraftian god. The patriot one specifies to do it on the front lawn facing the night sky. The broadcast saying not to look at the moon is fighting with the Moon as it tries to change the broadcast and eventually overpowers the operator. The guy in the car with the GPS is following bizarre and dangerous instructions and seems to be in a trance until just before he's eaten by the monster. Real Sleep is some cult-type brainwashing meant to be performed at night. Not really sure where the show for children fits in, but it seems to be saying "mortals are just walking corpses, sad and confused. I will bring you the release of death." The main thread is that the Moon is a malevolent living being and it hates us, and it hurts us through manipulating electronics and subtle brainwashing until the time is right for it to attack in full.

Being 52, this is especially creepy to me. It brings back memories of the early 70's late night t. v., color bars and the star spangled banner. Saturday nights were for "Creature Feature" with Count Gore De Vol on channel 20 which was UHF as opposed to VHF and the standard 13 channel rotary dial on that giant tube t. v. floor console. Moving your t. v. was like being a pall bearer! It took 4 people - literally, to move the damn thing! Things back then were scarier because we hadn't been desensitized yet. When the lights went out, it was what you DIDN'T see that scared the hell out of you. That's why games like Silent Hill have been so successful. They played on this same physcological fear. I'm going over to check this out right now. Very cool indeed!

"Contingency" reminds me of James Clavell's cold war book, The Children's Story. The US has lost the war; a new teacher arrives and calmly cuts up an American flag, instructing that it is a meaningless piece of cloth. The true horror in "Contingency " is that mass suicide is a message the enemy would nurture. An enemy which also has assumed the mask of institutional normalcy. All science fiction and historical fiction are actually about the era each is created in. "Contingency " is less about the Cold War than contemporary trust of government and media. Are they really the same institutions we grew up with? Can we trust the "historical documents " or interpretations they provide?

Not gonna lie, I have work soon and I won't go home til 12 am, and all I felt through the whole video was pure fear and panic. Somehow this really got to me, that's actually real talent to be able to do something like that so easily

Could you imagine a movie made about this. Like youre there inside with your family then this warning comes on your Tv's, phones everything... then you just hear gun shots ring out all around you. Your kids are screaming asking whats going on. People are uploading videos of their last message while they shoot themselves yelling "God bless america". Your significant other takes out a gun with tears in their eyes but you try to stop them, then they shoot themselves. Youre covered in their blood cradling your children, you try to call your family members. Scene changes to your parents both of them following the three "F"s holding each others hands as it shows a phone ringing in the background. You get in your car with your kids and see everyone in their front yards...

This series looks like someone really went to town with some vintage teletext hardware, and I really appreciate the aesthetic. I think the distortion is a bit strong at times which makes it feel intentionally creepy over realistic. (to each their own) The Contingency one is my favorite as it's by far the creepiest, building up more and more. Also I like your theme song. it's nice to hear more of it.

I actually kinda like the thing local58 episode, because not only does it show the dystopia of the fall of the american dream but also the curruption of the government but also their power over the mind of people Farther into the video now I've pieced it together now (note that im taking this into as a skit). We are observing into a portal to a dystopian earth, the American dream is gone we had lost to a force that we couldn't grasp, the suicide psa isn't a mysterious force trying to wipe out the human race its the US government trying to save the citizens from imminent disaster which they hope to take care of knowing the citizens are in a place of comfort. The moon is gone, what is there is a force that can not be described, the bends of what is reality and what is fantasy is gone and nothing is able to bring an end to the destruction that is imbalance, local58 is the only thing left before the human race experiences a new age of despair.

Maybe it's cause American freedom and patriotism is bullshit. The real leaders of America are unelected bankers and CEOs who lobby the government and control it's members like puppets. When a movement like occupy wall street challengers their authority they respond with tear gas and rubber bullets, and when an individual like Bernie Sanders challenges them, they steal an election. They aren't your friends

This is one of the few series that's truly kept me up at night and sent chills down my spine any time I think of it after months; it's really a special type of horror. I still get flashbacks to this very video whenever I hear Nexpo's theme!
