A dark and intense long movie with a connection to an urban legend.

The Batman character seems to have a connection to something back in the 1800s.

Was Batman Inspired By Spring-Heeled Jack?

Spring-heeled_Jack might be an urban legend that's actually based on real sightings of a mysterious menacing shape.

How does a humanoid from an urban legend start to foreshadow some elements and aspects of The+Batman character?

https://comicbookhistorians.com/spring-heeled-jack-the-original-batman-by-alex-grand-2

If the Penny books were inspired by the urban legend, what was it that people actually saw in the 1800s?

Was some strange humanoid trapped on earth for a while? Or, was it some kind of phantom or nefarious being?

Of course Batman is about helping the city by fighting crime. Where as SHJ was of a mischievous and malevolent nature. Something in between a monster and a villain might very well have been seen and encountered several times.

"Spring-heeled Jack was last seen in 1904 at Everton in Liverpool, bounding up and down the streets, leaping from cobbles to rooftops and back!

He vanished into the darkness when some brave souls tried to corner him and he has not been seen since that day to this!

The puzzle remains…who was Spring-heeled Jack?" https://www.historic-uk.com/CultureUK/Spring-Heeled-Jack


Part of The+Batman movie was filmed in Liverpool.

Of course when The_6th_Day movie was released back in 2000, pet cloning was Sci-Fi to the public.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parts:_The_Clonus_Horror , https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PpOaHYAfF7M  This movie seems to have been partially copied or redone in The Island.

The_Island (of Clones) is a classic cautionary Sci-Fi story. With a big budget, The Island is a much better movie. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Island_(2005_film)#Plot

The THING about ET and the Paranormal...

Is The_Thing an ET monster, or is it just a very adaptive life form? As The_Thing has been depicted in various movies, it is a very aggressive & dangerous organism that is a total predator and mimic. 

Several similar or parallel posts are at, TFZ and especially, TDL. 

The friendly Extra Terrestrial and the malevolent Alien have been depicted in so many ways. 

https://thedigitallabyrinth.blogspot.com/search?q=Alien

Panspermia is a fascinating concept as a natural way for the building-blocks of life to be distributed to a multitude of worlds. https://paranormal-intersection.blogspot.com/search?q=ET , https://thedigitallabyrinth.blogspot.com/search?q=ET , https://desertshapes.blogspot.com/search?q=ET

https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/earth-and-planetary-sciences/panspermia

https://ui.adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2019asbi.book..419K/abstract

Of course there have been several Sci-Fi stories about BIG and small things reaching the earth. Several of them are ET+monster stories.

From Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus to the Alien Prometheus...

Frankenstein was first published in 1818 on January 1st.

Of course several monster stories are set in urban-areas, or on other worlds. Perhaps scary stories that are set in remote or desolate locations are the most frightening of all.

"the monster wanders through the+wilderness."  

"Victor Frankenstein builds the creature in the attic of his boarding house in Ingolstadt after discovering a scientific principle which allows him to create life from non-living matter. Frankenstein is disgusted by his creation, however, and flees from it in horror. Frightened, and unaware of his own identity, the monster wanders through the wilderness." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frankenstein's_monster#Shelley's_plot

"In Shelley's original work, Victor Frankenstein discovers a previously unknown but elemental principle of life, and that insight allows him to develop a method to imbue vitality into inanimate matter, though the exact nature of the process is left largely ambiguous. After a great deal of hesitation in exercising this power, Frankenstein spends two years painstakingly constructing the Creature's body (one anatomical feature at a time, from raw materials supplied by "the dissecting room and the slaughter-house"), which he then brings to life using his unspecified process." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frankenstein#The_Creature

The Frankenstein monster was the quintessential composite Sci-Fi creature in the 1800s, that still resonates in popular culture over two centuries later. It was far from being like a Terminator robot and not simply an animated machine of body-parts. However, Frankenstein might be considered as a forerunner to the concept of the cybernetic_organism. 

https://brianaldiss.co.uk/writing/novels/novels-d-g/frankenstein-unbound

https://custom-writing.org/blog/monsters-in-literature

"Recent incarnations of mythical cyborg characters are often dangerous or violent.  The replicants in BladeRunner and the Borg in Star Trek: The Next Generation are examples of cyborgs whose machine/computer half has gone awry.  As the cyborg creature is about supplementing human deficiencies, disguising disabilities, and improving flaws, the terror of a cyborg creation that develops its own flaws is the nightmare of cyborg science.  The fear of machines that control and destroy stands in opposition to the possibility of machines liberating consciousness from the human body and providing useful, powerful extensions to the body.

Various manifestations of machine-human symbiosis and hybridity have descended from the original Frankenstein monster.  But not all cyborg monsters are as destructive as Frankenstein or the Terminator." https://csmt.uchicago.edu/glossary2004/cyborg.htm From, Jessica Santone.


Reading the Cyborg in Mary Shelley's "Frankenstein"

by Sarah Canfield Fuller https://www.jstor.org/stable/43308625


https://custom-writing.org/blog/mary-shelleys-frankenstein-themes


Of course the Prometheus movie is in some ways is a continuation of the Frankenstein theme. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prometheus_(2012_film)#Plot

https://medicalfuturist.com/from-human-to-cyborg

https://roboticsandautomationnews.com/2018/07/30/biology-and-robotics-enter-into-an-unholy-union-to-bring-forth-creatures-from-hell/18564

https://www.bionity.com/en/encyclopedia/Cyborg.html

While the movie Prometheus provides a subtle take on Mary Shelley's Frankenstein-Prometheus theme, Alien:_Covenant makes an obvious reference to Percy_B._Shelley.  

https://www.alien-covenant.com/topic/44302

"My name is Ozymandias, king of kings: Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!" Nothing beside remains: round the decay Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare, 

The lone and level sands stretch far away." - Percy Shelley 1818 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-v-bxPsxpE0 , https://www.youtube.com/c/TechOnPC/videos

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ozymandias#Publication_history 

https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poets/percy-bysshe-shelley

Prometheus and Alien:_Covenant could have been much better movies, but they still provide interesting & essential elements to the overall Alien-Prometheus story-line. https://www.hrgiger.com/alien.htm

https://horrorobsessive.com/2018/08/15/the-art-of-literary-misinterpretation-in-alien-covenant

So Mary_Shelley arrived in Switzerland in 1816 and would eventually create the Frankenstein-Prometheus story. H._R._Giger was born in Switzerland and by the late 1970s was involved with the Alien movie. HRG lived long enough to see the Prometheus movie.

Prometheus - David in the Orrery https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C1EeYB8Aog0

https://desertshapes.blogspot.com/search?q=Prometheus

Humans will become more augmented, but not everyone is interested in becoming something like Master_Chief or especially The_Borg. 


Interfacing the Brain & Machines: Another Step to a Cyborg Future

"Controlling robotic prostheses with one’s mind has been a hot topic in research, but making a prothesis ‘talk back’ has been a stumbling block. Researchers from Switzerland show progress in creating sensations from a bidirectional neuroprosthesis."

"Researchers from the University of Geneva, in Switzerland, are developing a new method to connect a prosthesis to neural activity in a bidirectional manner, which could solve some long-standing challenges of brain-machine interfaces. Published in Neuron, their early testing in mice models had promising results." https://www.labiotech.eu/more-news/university-genera-brain-machine

The X-Files intersection

The_X-Files could have easily had at least one episode about the_human_foot mystery between Seattle and Vancouver, BC.

But for some reason, it was never covered within the overall mythology of the series. 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_X-Files#Mythology

Of course there is suppose to be a logical explanation for all the severed feet, but it's still a bizarre mystery.

https://www.vice.com/en/article/a3bka4/bcs-floating-feet-mystery-is-more-boring-than-you-think

Even if that part of the world just happened to become a region where a foot is all that is discovered from a missing body, it's a very strange phenomenon. In this case, a paranormal explanation might really make a lot more sense.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salish_Sea_human_foot_discoveries#List_of_discoveries

It's been a couple of years since the last foot was found, but that doesn't mean this (unofficial paranormal) mystery is over.

Mad Scientist, Monsters and Other Things

Anthony_Hopkins has portrayed 3 interesting doctor characters. 

As a very kind doctor in The_Elephant_Man. Helping Joseph_Merrick, a disfigured man that was considered to be a monster by those that were too ignorant to realize that he had a serious medical condition, which affected his appearance. 


In The_Silence_of_the_Lambs as a Mad_Doctor and a predator.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hannibal_Lecter#In_film


In the Westworld_TV_series as perhaps another mad doctor of sorts.

"Anthony Hopkins as Dr. Robert Ford (seasons 1–2), the co-founder and Park Director of Westworld." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Westworld_(TV_series)#Cast_and_characters

The mad-scientist is so enthralled & driven to push the limits of things.

The Rice Synchronicity: 

Anne+Rice certainly benefited from Vampire fiction.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interview_with_the_Vampire (1976)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interview_with_the_Vampire_(film)

While the popularity of Anne_Rice really took off with her vampire subject matter, a Jeff Rice Vampire story connection still might not be as well known.

https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/c/c1/The_Night_Stalker.jpg 

"The film was based on the then-unpublished novel by Jeff Rice titled The Kolchak Papers (a.k.a. The Kolchak Tapes).[3][4] Rice said he wrote the novel because, "I'd always wanted to write a vampire story, but more because I wanted to write something that involved Las Vegas." Rice had difficulty finding a publisher willing to buy the manuscript until agent Rick Ray read it and realized the novel would make a good movie. The 1973 novel (renamed The Night Stalker) wasn't published until after the TV movie had already aired, and was delayed according to Rice because the publisher wanted both Rice's original novel and the 1974 sequel The Night Strangler (written by Rice but based on the screenplay by author Richard Matheson) so "they could be placed on the top of the publisher's list in the 1 and 2 positions for 1974." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Night_Stalker_(1972_film)

Time+Travel (TT) stories in books, movies, TV series & video games keeps drawing public interest through the years. Perhaps it's because the concept of TT has astounding implications.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Men_in_Black_3#Plot Its all about moving around in an interactive cosmic recording and projection of time and space. https://www.rogerebert.com/reviews/men-in-black-iii-2012

Phone Calls From The Dead, etc.

https://medium.com/inside-the-simulation/phone-calls-from-the-dead-1894a40245e9

Everything is energy, so perhaps somehow calls were made from anther frequency or dimension.

John_Keel wrote about a strange creature or entity that became known as The_Mothman.

Demonic by, Neill Blomkamp, etc.

 https://gizmodo.com/neill-blomkamps-demonic-movie-definitely-has-demons-in-1847026344

Is it a scary movie?

https://www.indiewire.com/2021/06/demonic-trailer-neill-blomkamp-horror-1234641755

Perhaps that depends upon the viewer and how many horror+movies they have already watched.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Demon-Haunted_World Of course many sightings and encounters remain elusive or inconclusive. Yet, something strange might be going on.

Unexplained phenomena baffle owner of infamous Skinwalker Ranch

https://enzari.com/2021/02/brandon-fugal-supercar-owner-steward-of-skinwalker-ranch/

It's like the Skinwalker_Ranch has some kind of an invisible vortex or an inter-dimensional portal around it.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skinwalker_Ranch#Background

https://ksltv.com/447719/mystery-of-utahs-skinwalker-ranch-very-much-alive/

Mythical Creatures From Folklore, Legends and Fairytales...

Of course there are various perspectives of mysterious creatures, entities and monsters.

Knowing (2009)

"In 2009, the current class opens the time capsule and distributes the drawings inside among the students. Lucinda's sheet is given to Caleb Koestler, the nine-year-old son of widowed MIT astrophysics professor John Koestler. John recognizes the date and number of victims of the September 11 attacks in New York and realizes that Lucinda's numbers contain numbers that perfectly predict the dates and death tolls of major catastrophes over the past fifty years..." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knowing_(film)#Plot 

“Knowing” is fully explained here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s422FSKEvcc

The movie implies that some strange humanoids in black, perhaps a variation of the MIB know about things behind the scenes with some occasional manipulation or interference. Then there is a big relocation.

The number 911 or 9/11 intersects with some key moments in history. As does, 119.
A registration number that ends with, N##119 just might have caused some people to have 2nd thoughts.

Boeing 747-131, N93119 

191 is just 911 rearranged.

Of course there have been a lot of aircraft incidents throughout history.
"From a routine takeoff that quickly turns into a disaster to a turbulent crash landing, these are the most-watched Air Disaster videos of all time."

KNOWING (FULL PLANE CRASH Scene)

EVERY DEATH IN KNOWING

The ending of Knowing fits right in with the Sci-Fi movie structure, even it's just not fully accurate, and that's OK.

"It wasn’t too long ago that a monster coronal mass ejection just missed us. The damage from this phenomenon would have otherwise meant lights out for Earth up to 10 years, and restoration would have run into the trillions of dollars. That was 2012. The worst one that bombarded our planet took out North America’s entire telegraph system in 1859. Back then, telegraphs were a big deal. Internet is a much bigger deal." 

A Deep_Impact scenario is more likely, but that could be decades or centuries away.

Of course there is always the potential for surprises.

"Stephen Hawking thought an asteroid impact posed the greatest threat to life on Earth."

El Chupacabra and other Monsters, ETc...

 https://groundzeromedia.org/3-5-21-el-chupacabra-brah-w-ken-gerhard

Is this something that was created in a lab or is it a monster from another world or dimension?

http://thegoblinuniverse.com/2020/04/23/el-chupacabra

wikipedia

According to various sightings, the Chupacabra appears to be a composite creature or a mutation. Therefore, most people would consider it to being a monster.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chupacabra#Reputed_origin

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tracking_the_Chupacabra Of course without sufficient evidence the chupacabra is just another urban legend.

https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/c/c6/LiloandStitchmovieposter.jpg

"Dr. Jumba Jookiba, an extraterrestrial mad scientist, is arrested by the Galactic Federation for illegal genetic experimentation, as evidenced by a small blue sentient alien named Experiment 626, who has unparalleled strength and intelligence but also a propensity to cause chaos." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lilo_and_Stitch#Plot


https://nocturnalrevelries.com/2020/04/12/the-goblin-universe-ted-holiday , 

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/664124.The_Goblin_Universe

Is this a Goblin Universe or a Demon-Haunted_World?

The world could have all sorts of monsters and mutations, but without actual confirmation, it remains somewhere in between a mystery, myth and an urban legend.


The same can be said of the Jersey_Devil.

http://thegoblinuniverse.com/2020/04/13/new-jersey-devil

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jersey_Devil#The_Leeds_Devil However, the JD also seems to be a composite creature with a monstrous appearance.


The Mothman was also seen by various people. This would be considered to be a monstrous creature or entity by many.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mothman#History

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Keel#The_Mothman_Prophecies

https://www.atlasobscura.com/places/mothman-statue

https://www.roadsideamerica.com/story/12036

The Mothman_Prophecies 1975 Book , 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Keel#Rejection_of_Extraterrestrial_hypothesis

Was Mothman from the same realm as, Pazuzu?

wikipedia , https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pazuzu#In_modern_popular_culture At a certain point, a demon and a monstrous entity might be seen as the same thing.


Some investigators though that the Skinwalker_Ranch might have had some kind of a portal on it. 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skinwalker_Ranch#Background

Perhaps an intersection point for demons and monsters.

https://inexplicata.blogspot.com/search?q=monsters

https://copycateffect.blogspot.com/search?q=monsters

If this world is part of something like an interactive cosmic recording and projection of time and space, then even the demons and monsters are part of it.

Loren_Coleman has been investigating and researching various creatures and mysteries for several years. http://cryptomundo.com , https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0171129

https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/Bigfoot!/Loren-Coleman/9780743469753

Although a Bigfoot or Sasquatch might be thought of as monstrous by some, they aren't as much monsters, as they would be just LARGE humanoids.
