There is no me. There is no you. There is all. There is no you. There is no me. And that is all. A profound acceptance of an enormous pageantry. A haunting certainty that the unifying principle of this universe is love. -- Propagandhi
. I guess the music selections already put above sunny's in this thread could pass for scary if they really had been to begin with. Hence, these embeds once clicked on by the brave with certain imaginations may, if they wish, feel the truly r-e-a-l-l-y scary stuff. Picture it. Even play them simultaneously for listening to incomparable nuance and surreality. But at your peril, if it happened an alert to excitement was necessary.

Yummie selections, sunny, really.

Art will be the last bastion when all else fades away. ~ Timothy White (b 1952), American rock music journalist _________________
ok, this took a little longer than I was expecting but here's some bare rough concept of the plot to go with the soundtrack (the songs are all fairly Halloween-able too.)
This film focuses on John Q. Protagonist, a mid-level career functionary in a US Presidential administration, who has inadvertently discovered complete proof that his superiors are in fact ruthless evil men planing to needlessly start a war for their own profit based entirely on lies.
The story features our hero's futile efforts to prevent this tragedy and highlights much of societies apparent unwillingness to be saved, disinterest in the suffering of others and eager acceptance of easy convenient lies.
Seeking out the press, John discovers that the big names will listen, at first, but never publish anything... wasting time...
As the villains realize they have a leak and identify John, they wage a viscous psychological "gas-lighting" campaign, leading John into a parallel struggle to maintain his own sanity in a world gone mad.
... drawn into senseless arguments with even old friends taken in by the propaganda, with no one else to turn to, John looks to the past for inspiration and meets in the library an 'underground' reporter who listens and recognizes the need to publicize the evidence...
as the seemingly inevitable slaughter approaches, visions of demon and ghost clad Noh dancers no one else can see begin to haunt John in incongruous public locations
the reporter is killed in a "suicide" - it was impossible, but John can't tell the police this without making himself the prime suspect.
ashamed and compromised, the villains also make clear that his relationship with the reporter will be made to look like an affair if he doesn't keep quite.
John gets the clearest possible ultimatum laid out in a surprise meeting. In hopes of saving his family any further trouble John agrees to cease his efforts and take a transfer into another post. Turns to alcohol to try to stop the visions... tries to get settled into his new job, hangs up on a reporter trying to follow up and researching the death of the previous reporter.
discovers his new job is a setup, he'll be in position to take the fall on the government side in a manufactured controversy that will destroy a rival company to the villains cronies (but which is itself a 'client' of a former president from the other party).
time is short, the use of force authorization in congress is scheduled for tomorrow... our hero races across town, dodging the black eyeglass wearing 'security' men tailing him, bluffs his way into the UN building where the former president is attending a meeting. No idea what to do next, he ends up following a strange character from one of his visions, eventually finding himself in the presence of the former president and is able to use his position and bluff his way into a short exchange, where he convinces him to listen to what's going on. In order to save his own cronies company from the impending fake scandal he uses the evidence that the impending war is based on lies to discredit and derail the false war, force resignations. and so, by use of corruption against itself, a needless evil war is averted.
