Unborn, Undying

Interesting discussion on NPR today about "absolute terror". Sounds a little like Neon Genesis Evangelion to me. I've been thinking about that series lately, there are a lot of fascinating themes embedded in it. One episode that stands out is "The beast that shouted 'I' in the heart of the world." This is a must see people...a must see...

Not only because it is finely scripted and drawn, but also because of the compelling and realistic emotional tension between the main characters and the mystical, mythical supratext of angels, life and death, love, fatherhood and the end of the world. It's a thinkpiece if there ever was one...do yourselves a favour and watch it!
