Topic	THE Snake Ranks Anything Horror Related (Vol. 5) 5th Anniversary RANKINGS
Snake5555555555 10/18/20 4:56:45 PM #225:	61. Conspiracy (The Next Generation) (17.5 points) Nominated by: Anagram (3/5 remaining) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=03QKSjBiG2c Importance: 3.5 Fear: 7 Snake: 7 One of several moving moments of horror in the Next Generation, Conspiracy presents itself as a techno paranoia-thriller, chock full of its own noir signatures to craft a mystery as compelling and horrific as anything found in film. It probably has one of the scariest climaxes in television, as the parasitic (okay I swear I didn't plan the last few found entries in the ranking to be related to assimilating parasites) beings even infiltrate the upper echelons of Starfleet Command, and Picard is served a meal of worms in a stomach-churning event of dread and disgust. I like how the episode expertly builds up suspense, and shows Picard at his most serious and untrusting, and though it's always pretty obvious who has the parasite, what those characters perform under their influence is unpredictable. The episode is especially notable for its fantastic special effects, including the terrific shot of the exploded head on the chair up above, an effort it won an Emmy for. The episode ends with a chilling cliffhanger, as we left in limbo whether or not the parasites' message will reach its intended targets and notify their brethren the location of Earth. For fourty-minutes, Star Trek condenses its themes into a digestible short horror film, in which its implications and sense of anxiety makes it a stand-out in the series' canon. --- And it's gonna be a long October, and I don't have reasons to believe, in much of anything, alright https://imgur.com/1e1e70S <cite>Snake5555555555 posted [p:946005937] in THE Snake ...
