Hello, Internet.

Welcome to Film Theory, the show that encouraged you to...

Cryo.

Try out.

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

going to 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

Bois-Vare. 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. 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 seeing in its videos. The phrase is also used in a French figure of speech,

Un Volet de Beauvais, which means a barrage of criticism.

Likely more why it was chosen for the series and not the whole Greenwood thing.

Regardless, I'd like to take this opportunity to offer a formal apology

to the entirety of the French language for this video.

Anyway, Bois-Vare is a peculiar little channel, with imagery and sound design that's equal parts

creative, creepy, and cryptic.

The videos are almost avant-garde in their use of visuals, combining a lot of different animation
