Someone Replaced “Wonder Years” Narration With ’80s Horror Synth
The Wonder… Fears?
It has always amazed me how much music can completely change the feel of a scene in a movie or TV show. A good score or song selection can make a scene iconic, while a bad musical choice can completely remove you from the moment.
But what about a just plain weird choice? Well, TV writer/producer Jon Friedman just totally changed the feel of “The Wonder Years” by replacing adult Kevin Arnold’s voice-over narration in a select scene with… ’80s horror synth tunes?!
Yeah, it doesn’t get much weirder than this.
In the scene, Kevin is being questioned about an incident at school by his mother and the principal. Instead of Daniel Stern’s narration giving us some insight into what Kevin was thinking at the time, the totally out of place synth score adds a sinister feel to the proceedings. It’s a conversation about an apple, but it might as well be about a schoolyard massacre.
This is what the internet was made for, folks.
While you wait for Alien: Romulus, the folks over at Devilworks have cooked up their own slice of “mockbuster” fun with Alien Hunt, and we’re debuting the trailer here on BD this morning.
This brand-new sci-fi horror from director Aaron Mirtes (The Bigfoot Trap, Painted in Blood) is set for its US premiere on May 14, and you can find it on digital thanks to Devilworks.
You can exclusively watch the official trailer for Alien Hunt below, which looks to combine elements of Alien and Predator. This particular “mockbuster” has very little interest in hiding its inspirations, with the alien designs plucked straight out of H.R. Giger’s beautiful brain. Hey, if you’re going to pull from other movies, might as well take from the all-time greats!
In Alien Hunt, “On a hunting trip in the wilderness, a group of siblings discovers an abandoned military outpost on their land, but is it what it seems?
“Their trip takes a sinister turn when they find themselves facing off against a relentless army of extra-terrestrial beings. Suddenly, the hunters become the hunted.
“The formidable squad of alien soldiers will stop at nothing to wipe out the enemy and in an all-out, brutal battle for survival, it’s kill or be killed in Alien Hunt.”
Barron Boedecker (Escape Pod, The Bigfoot Trap), Brent Bentley (The Perfect In-Laws, Haunt Season), Deiondre Teagle (The Visitor, Painted in Blood, Death Ranch), Chelsey Fuller (The Bigfoot Trap, The Silent Natural), Jesse Santoyo (A Nashville Country Christmas, Potter’s Ground), and Adam Pietripaoli (The Bigfoot Trap, The OctoGames) star.
