I am autistic and the hills have eyes has made me too interested in radiation.
Look, sounds dumb but it’s true. Was asking my dad one night “what horror film should we watch tonight?” He said “the hills have eyes” and originally meant the first (oldest) version, but I ended up watching the 2006 version with him and boy oh boy I was OBSESSED. Now on random nights I sit in bed at like 4am and just watch nuclear bombs going off. I would like more facts on radiation, and generally just talk and learn. The mutants, they made me wonder “does this shit happen in real life?” (Because of the effects of radiation) And I find it so so fascinating. I also have to play fallout 4, because it includes topics of those (and is a game I think I would generally be into because horror blah blah) radiation, bombs, and the aftermath. So, can we all talk about would any of this happen in real life? Hypothetically, if we survived a nuclear bomb, and slowly got used to the radiation and not got too sick, how would we end up evolving? Also! Would LOVE movie recommendations (and games!) for things involving nuclear bombs and radiation and general things like the Netflix show “leave the world behind” (it gives the vibe off imo) so please, can I talk with some fellow enthusiasts because I feel so alone explaining how fascinated I am about the topic to people who DONT UNDERSTAND.
