Perhaps the disturbing scene where Naomi Watts is invaded by tiny people in Mulholland Drive?

I leaned on "Kick the Can" (starting 2:20, with a grab-bag of others from the era) in one of my Super 8 monster movies from 1983. Jerry's maniacal theme for George Miller's "Nightmare at 20,000 Feet" is masterful.

Peter, if you enjoyed “Flow,” you might enjoy my interview with the filmmaker here. He’s a lovely and fascinating fellow: www.cartoonbrew.com/feature-film...
Gints Zilbalodis On The Improvisational Filmmaking Style Of 'Flow'
"After finishing the script, I did not read it again," Zilbalodis told Cartoon Brew. "Even when I was making the animatic, that was based on my memory of the script."

Mr. Cargill, what’s your take on accepted or appropriate word-counts for a genre novel? I am hatching one, first in a very long time, and have seen conflicting and haughty (but unsubstantiated) opinions. I’m leaning toward, “It will be what it needs to be…”

I was there, too!
