The dummy routine was deliciously sinister... without spoiling it for anyone who hasn't seen it, the moment when the effect really kicks in is a real spine chiller. No matter how you cut it, it is excellent theatre: if it's all real, its scary sinister stuff. If it's 'just' off screen hypnosis, it's scary sinister stuff. If the guy's an actor, and it's all scripted and none of it is at all real: it's scary sinister stuff.
It kind of reminded me of a routine he did in a previous show, whereby he rendered himself invisible through suggestion, an old hypnotists trick, and it's been done to death, right? The clip is here: http://www.compfused.com/directlink/3599/ Excellent. Phill

Wow. You lucky Brits can carp (sole?) that this is sub-standard Brown. But as an American who has never seen anything of DB besides a few disconnected clips on Youtube, this is wonderful stuff. What production values. Comedy. Some really scary sh!te, too.
I can't wait to see the GOOD stuff. |

I'm just starting to get into exploring verbal suggestion for influencing a 'free choice', so I loved some of the technique in the painting section. I admit to missing it the first time around but when I noticed it and things started falling into place on the second viewing, it put a real smile on my face!
I think that I'm enjoying the series. It's not the best thing Derren has ever done but then he's produced some outstanding work so he set the bar high himself. I much preferred this second show to the very elaborate yet 'not really worth all the effort' picture booth stunt of the first episode. This puppet was much darker and more sinister. I can't wait to see what we get in the rest of the series. |
