| 0:28.5 | Music Hello, internet, welcome to film theory, the show that encouraged you to... |
| 0:51.6 | Cryo. |
| 0:53.5 | Cryo. And if the choppy black and white animations have included you in yet, yep, we're in that part of YouTube again. That shadowy corner where anything goes, where you'll see things that burn themselves into your mind, that corner that you probably shouldn't be watching at 3 a.m., but you're going to try to anyway to see if you're brave enough to last. And then you're gonna pass it on to your friends as a humble brag saying, look, I watch this, can you? The horror in question today is a small indie channel that I've had my eye on for a while now called underscore Boisvert, or as I believe it's actually pronounced, Boisver. When I see the underscore at the beginning, It always makes me think that there needs to be a dramatic pause there, like, Bois-Vare. |
| 1:10.9 | Anyway, Bois-Vare is French, and literally translates to Green Wood, which I don't think has anything to do with the twisted images that you're about to be seen in its videos. The phrase is also used in a French figure of speech, speech, a volet de Beauvaisre, which means a barrage of criticism. |
| 1:46.6 | Likely more why it was chosen for the series and not the whole Greenwood thing. |
| 1:50.5 | Regardless, I'd like to take this opportunity to offer a formal apology to the entirety of the French language for this video. |
| 1:57.0 | Anyway, Boisver is a peculiar little channel with imagery and sound design that's equal parts creative, creepy, and cryptic. |
| 2:02.6 | The videos are almost avant-garde in their use of visuals, combining a lot of different animation and filmmaking techniques into something that's truly uncanny and often terrifying. |
| 2:11.6 | Seriously, from the very first video we jump from traditional sequentially drawn animation to skin crawling live action with heavy filters and rotoscoped visuals |
| 2:20.1 | and that's just what's on the surface of the very first video look a little deeper and you start finding allusions to biblical stories horrifying monsters and a heightened almost academic language |
| 2:33.0 | one thousand decisions made in the name of a desaturated existence. |
| 2:38.0 | Look up from here and tell me when you will grant forgiveness to the one most lacking. |
| 2:45.0 | There's also a lot of imagery in there of floating hands trying to give us the tickles. So that's fun. If you can manage to brave your way through its uploads, it's clear that there's a story here, but the timeline of events is completely out of order. There are also elements of an ARG here, like Morse code and QR codes that are linking to unlisted videos. And you know me, when I see an analog horror series with ARG elements, can't help |
| 3:07.8 | but get to the bottom of it. There is clearly a deeper story hidden in this channel just under |
