| The other day out of curiosity and looking for | | | | feast served up. |
| something to do, I ran across this new site. Or at | | | | One of the services they specialize in is movie title |
| least it was new to me. Being a horror fan I'm | | | | segments. Some call them prologues, intro credit |
| always on the lookout for something interesting | | | | pieces, titles etc. Now from looking at the ones they |
| enough to entertain me. The site I'm speaking of is | | | | had available for download, they almost take on the |
| Nightmare Kinetics. It seemed a good way to spend | | | | feeling of a short film themselves. Crazy animated |
| the afternoon and gave me something to write | | | | text segments and rich horrific visuals that jump out |
| about. Remembering running across various video | | | | at you. |
| segments on the internet through online video surfing | | | | As a movie goer, I watch alot of films and notice |
| I went ahead and buried myself into the site. | | | | when the filmmakers start off with an intro thats |
| First off, I was really impressed not only by the | | | | more than just white text over black slides. I guess |
| quality of work but by the artistic vision and | | | | its not for everyone but often they draw you in with |
| composition choices that NK had implemented into | | | | an interesting introduction into what your about to |
| their creations. In looking further it seemed to stem | | | | see. I always assumed that the film makers |
| from the twisted artistic mind of well known horror | | | | themselves created these but in looking now there |
| illustrator Mike Bohatch who had established himself | | | | seems to be a market that is exclusive to just |
| far back among the numerous book and CD covers | | | | "movie title segments". A film within a film I suppose |
| of the horror genre. In fact, I own quite a few | | | | is the best way to classify it. Anyways I'm sure |
| publishings myself that sport his nightmarish | | | | filmmakers will be excited to know that there is a |
| presentations. His sister site being "Eyes of Chaos". | | | | new force on the block that they can call for |
| These manifestations seemingly have progressed | | | | dynamic titles! Up to now I thought maybe the |
| leaping off the pages and into film and video | | | | studios had some title guy locked away that they |
| interpretations. This new entity "Nightmare Kinetics" is | | | | just had focused on these elements only. I suppose |
| appropriately translated into "Nightmares in motion". | | | | reading the credits at the end of films would shed |
| Upon research you would think that they sprang up | | | | some light but usually that's when I get up to grab a |
| practically overnight, but in fact it looks like it was | | | | snack. |
| actually started back in 2005. Why I say that, is | | | | In any case moving along, the site also features really |
| some of the clips seem to be circulating the video | | | | dynamic movie trailers, commercials and odd tidbits of |
| circuit quit frequent. | | | | motion graphics. The fact that they cater to both |
| I liked the fact that the site provided cool clips to | | | | small and large films is a nice option for films on a |
| download and that I didn't have to wait online for | | | | lower budget. I suppose this would mean that you |
| each to load. So this way I could review them closer | | | | don't have to be Dreamworks to hire on some cool |
| back on my hard drive. Another thing that caught my | | | | intro or rockin' movie trailer. |
| interest was that they seemed to be exclusive to | | | | Lastly, but certainly not least, it appears that they |
| the horror genre. Which meant if you like the work | | | | have progressed into filmmaking as well per there |
| you'll be seeing alot more in that vein and style. The | | | | newly released announcements. In checking out the |
| use of the word kinetic most definitely refers to | | | | film productions page they've already got one foot in |
| their high energy style of editing. I found myself | | | | the door with several horror titles under production |
| comparing clips to the likeness of a Marilyn Manson | | | | and a partnership with filmmakers Buffalo Nickel |
| video and a hodgepodge of big screen elements in | | | | productions. Pretty cool to say the least. I know I'll |
| newer horror releases. In summary, quite a visual | | | | be ordering my copy when its out! |
