10 Cinematic Summonings Of The Devil

3 . The Adventures Of Mark Twain

The Adventures Of Mark Twain Mark Twain was always something of a Devil's advocate. so making a children's movie about Mark Twain is a strange choice in itself. The movie, having already derided Adam and Eve quite comically, goes one further by adapting and inserting an extract from part of Mark Twain's unfinished work about the Devil: The Chronicles of Young Satan. Telling this story through the medium of Claymation adds to the disturbing quality of this scene but also accentuates the haunting allure already given to Satan by the multi-layered vocal performance. "Life itself is only a vision. A dream. Nothing exists, save empty space and you. And you... are but a thought." Sesame Street, this is not.

David is grateful not only for the opportunity WhatCulture! has given him but also for the tens of thousands of views that you have given him. Particularly, when he still considers his efforts as somewhat clumsy and amateurish. Like H.P. Lovecraft, David will probably never be happy with his own work. Still this doesn't stop him studying E-Prime, Game Theory, Tantra, Magic, Media Analysis & Criticism along with many other things outside of his top secret day to day job and writing for WhatCulture! All of this in a no doubt conceited effort to improve not only his writing but also himself as a person.
