I can’t wait to see everyone’s observant and in depth theories theories here for all to see and discuss. What a party this will be. 😊💀🖤
This is incredible. Needs to be made into a TV series 🎉
Soon…🖤💀🕰️
The gasp of air at the end, I wonder if Kyle has to re-live this over and over again like Groundhog Day but with aliens
The way Kyle grips the bed with the covering over it and you can hear it crinkle in his grip is so eerie in itself, was it to serve purpose of him being reminded and taken back of the deaths, trying to relive them or having been there before at a different time in the same location? It was the first thing that gave me an eerie feeling. (Well besides the film score…and pokey spiky creatures lol) Dang it I loved it all and want more!
YES—- THANKYOU THANK YOU THANK YOU - that last gasp is our “candle/light at the end of the tunnel”. - LOVE IT!
All in for this next journey! Then…big screen!💜💜💜
This time watching the film I felt the intensity even more from the sound of the thrashing water and Kyle's struggle at the very end! Then the eyes😱
congratulations 🎉🎉, it's as if True Detective S1 had a child with The Arrival. I loved it. I need more. Greetings from Barcelona.
This is out there: what if Tyler’s body is actually the the body of the character Alex Parkins(?) Perkins? And “Kyle” was actually either a computer program or a human using a computer that had infiltrated Alex’s consciousness. He needs to simulate Alex’s suicide so he can see what the AI has created in that alternate dimension . This is what people experience when they leave the body and join their intellect with the program, becoming part of the hive mind.. That would explain all of the reported suicides at the beginning. It also explains his words when he checks in saying his operative number, the subject name and it will be by asphyxiation. Kyle is reporting how he is going to simulate this guy’s death. Kyle finds himself on the otherside or alternate dimension and speaks to the being there. But it’s Tyler’s distorted voice coming out of the being. So it’s him, an alternate part of him or a mirror. Did Kyle create the program that then gained consciousness and got out of control? Is he part of the resistance trying to stop it? It would make sense based on the conversation he had with the being at the end who said you wanted this, you’re programming is faulty and we can save you. Kyle resists the merge. Kyle finds them on the otherside through a specific frequency sounding like old Morse code. Then the AI program is able to trace him back into the body with the same frequency at the end. Is that what you intended?
Question: Kyle seems to be reliving the deaths in order to figure out how the people are being driven to suicide. He is able to communicate with the intelligence. Does the scar on the back of his head mean he had something removed or implanted to allow him to do this? And as he is figuring them out, are they beginning to figure him out, with his 'flaw'? Absolutely brilliant project! Imagination overload...just what this tired old world needs! Thank you! 👏👏
I personally think each of you involved deserve awards for this one. #CHIMERA deserved to be MERGED 😉 to the big screen.
I love the way this was originally released, which in essence made us, the viewers, part of an experiment. We merged! We are a legacy! And now others can see what “the team” made us a part of! Whatever this turns into, I’m here for it! 🙌🏻
I appreciate all the team love that branched out from this project. All the new artists we’ve been exposed to, the music, the art, the brilliant ideas and collaborations… it was truly an authentic experience and I’m glad to have been a part of it. Thank you! 🙏🏻 This whole team rocks! 🫶🏻
@Tyler_Hynes…thank you for doing this project and making it available again. You really do listen to your fans. The hynies broke the internet once can we strike again? I’m counting the days until 4/22/23.
The look on Kyle’s face at the end laying in the bathtub…I felt like it could be exhaustion , anticipation, or resolve. The black eyes though…
The cinematography adds so much to the atmospheric mystery of this short film. Tyler’s haircut, that mysterious ‘scar’ on his head, the austere hair cut, the lighting that is captured across his face. I thought he was an FBI agent at first but then had to rethink and imagine …what is this about? It is darker and deeper than I was prepared for. 🐑🐑🇳🇿🇳🇿NZ
Having lost a friend due to suicide that way makes this scene always hard to watch...but the film in its entirety is genius..very well created. The scenery the angles, the acting the feel of the picture all around amazing. Yall are some amazingly talented people. We need more of the genius that is Ash ❤...it has the feel.of a huge Hollywood production...great job
Can't wait to see it again. Like any good movie, you pick up on the subtleties with each subsequent viewing. Plus...you know...Tyler Hynes.
The gripping of the bed and the crinkle beneath it before the pic grab gets me. Had Kyle Been in the same spot or was he putting himself in the shoes of one of the victims?
