‘A Bloody Mess’
A.I. EXPLAINS:
A police officer is in a creepy hallway. Something is making a weird noise. It’s not a person. It’s not an animal. It’s... something else. The officer gets nervous. Then, a prisoner runs at him, screaming about Madagascar. That is not helpful. The officer says "shhh." That also does not help. More weird stuff happens. More running. More noises. More blood. A giant, slithery thing that is too big for the hallway shows up. That is bad. The officer and the prisoner hide. They bond over a massive wound and the rising sun over Madagascar. Then, the camera pulls back. Surprise! None of it is real. It’s a movie. But also, the movie is about making the movie. The directors are stressed. The producer is making phone calls. The actors are drinking coffee. Then, the movie becomes about the movie about the movie. More people appear. More cameras. More confusion. Someone yells “cut.” Then, someone else yells “cut.” Then, someone else yells “cut.” Then, the directors start wondering how deep they can go. Maybe forever. Maybe this description is also part of the movie. Maybe you are in the movie now. Anyway. It’s a film. Enjoy.
