I love how Trimmings just sounding constantly distressed and looking completely miserable and confused. Clearly not having a Good Time™️ and people in this universe really went, “ah yes, a pet.”
Probably the most accurate depiction of people in any media, ever
Dont they excrete some kinda mind control odour that makes people think they're cute in-universe?
@@liamlol1539 wait huh?
@@outdatedcakes That yellow powder stuff that's used in food is speculated to have some mind altering abilities. I dunno if it's real tho, cuz i heard it in a reaction vid. Also matpat speculates it's the fungus stuff that the one other type(forgot the name) exhales.
Also i just realized that they put crawl into the food, not trimmings. Sorry bout that. So basically what im tryin to say is that the powder spice makes people think trimmings are cute, essentially brainwashing them into adopting one.
@@liamlol1539 there’s a creature in universe that does that with spores, the Hosts of Influence, but there doesn’t seem to be any reference to the trimmings being capable of that. However, that would be an interesting theory considering the abilities of other Vita Carnis creatures.
The harvester was the most traumatizing and scariest in that one scene where it shows and allows you to hear what dying to it sounds like
ngl the child dying got to me way too much, just because it sounds SO REAL

"Ready your meat snakes" is one of the best no-context Matpat sentences
It even sounds weird WITH context 💀💀

That harvester scene was something else. Really showed how far the creator was willing to go to show the ability of these things.
My curiosity caused my crying

Nothing like seeing a couple of grown men burst out laughing at the words "Meat snake" being said in an analogue horror series. Never change, Team Theorist. Never change.

thank you film theory for opening my eyes to this obvious joke
"mammoth meatballs"
"strange, thick, meaty world"
hehe
@@colesultemeier9605 :\ bruh
My theory, is that the singularity and the monoliths create these sounds similar to radio waves to draw in all of the vita carnis. So the vita carnis are lured to things like televisions or radios, explaining why they took over that radio tower in the newspaper clipping. They were just confused and mistook the radio waves as a call from the monoliths or the singularity
Nice theory, I wonder if we'll get more evidence for it in the future
👌
5:46 "run,hide, and scream"

i agree

@@waldemarpolcyn6936 yeah they’re so stupidly annoying
Same!!!
Its pretty wholesome how the trimmings “noises” that it makes at night in the video is actually the trimming warning the owner of a mimic.
Or is it calling the mimic to its location?
“Ready your meat snakes”
MatPat, my meat snake is always ready, like a true theorist’s would
:3333
ayo?🤨🤨
Fun Fact: At 13:59, during MatPat's debut introduction of The Singularity, you can see it's name as "Verum Carnis", and if translated from Latin to English, it means "the truth of the flesh."
Pretty neat detail!
This is true
lol I was just going to comment that
Why did I read that as verum cairns 😭
Like the place in Australia
that sounds like a gojira song!
Latin brain was going insane so I had to check it and it is in fact true.
Verum being a neuter nominative noun "truth"
and Carnis being a feminine genitive noun, in its case meaning "of flesh"
Matpat: "this analog horror is different since it doesn't have aliens"
Also Matpat: "so these are aliens"
They aren't aliens. It's only the singularity that is an alien, everything else is native to earth.
They are from Earth too.

I swear whenever MatPat does an Analog Horror theory the world starts spinning again
Exactly
Yea
The jump scares are getting good but don't work on me I know it's coming everytime a video comes out
But the world never stops spinning
Oooooohhhhh
Yep
Got a couple of easter eggs to point out: the scientific name displayed for the singularity is "Verum Carnis" which is Latin for "True meat;" another connection to it being the center of things. Also, the Vita Carnis documentary on the Mimic instructs you to not use any weapons you have, instead telling you to use them to block attacks (timestamp 6:31), while the Mimic Defense video tells you to aim for the head or legs (timestamp 3:20), and to "fight back". This, coupled with the suicidal content warning on the Mimic defense video points to the instructions being counter-productive.
wow
The creator of the series actually returned this later, making it so that fire arms do actually have an effect on these creatures.
the mimic defense video has a suicidical content warning on it because the guy in the second part says that the police reported the case as a suicide, despite obviously being more than that. that's right, they said the word twice during an intentionally hard to hear part of the video, and youtube automatically deems it suicidal content
When I watched vita carnis I kinda got paranoid but its ok now 👍
"Vita Carnis" also means the life of meat.

The idea that the singularity is the "prince" is terrifying bc it implies that there are more powerful forces than the singularity, potentially being much more malevolent
There are seven singularities and 7 monoliths
@@SKYLUNAWOLF1there could be more monoliths around the others equalling 49, but we haven't confirmed that.

I refuse to believe style theory existed 10 months ago.
the fact that it doesnt follow a single person or group of people just entities is kinda cool in a sense cuz it can open up alot of story-telling ideas cuz i love to think of if the documentary wasnt there how would the info about the entities reach the mass public if like only government officals know and thats y i love this even more it leaves room for imagination
I had a nightmare a few years ago where there was something just like the crawl stuck to my grandparents wall, the thing just kept expanding until someone I couldn't regonize touched it by accident and started to scream, then I woke up.. because the stupid alarm synchronized with the man's scream
I had one about a mimic
That reminds me of when I had a dream where my Alexa started saying some weird things. Alexa started to make creepy and annoying noises when I tried to go to bed. My parents were in the other room and I had to yell what was happening to them because my mom is not the best at hearing. It turns out, when I woke up that weird noise is just some birds.

Fun Fact: On the little lore bit documenting the _Singularity_ it is labeled as Verum Carnis. Which, when translated, is Truth of Flesh or True Meat. Which, as Matpat already surmised via this video, is the reason why all of the Vita Carnis creatures are alive.

This makes me want Matpat to go into Mystery Flesh Pit National Park, except that is all text based. So i don't know how he'd make it into a video. But it is one of the most interesting and creepy unfiction I've read in awhile.

There are images and audio to the whole thing. Wendigoon did a fantastic video about it.
@@Samdafurry I do love Wendigoon's video on it. It is fantastic!

Goodbye Matthew. It's fun hearing your voice
I honestly think that it would be such a great twist if the Singularity actually turned out to be largely positive or good in the end once it wakes up, with the cult around it being the real monsters. Probably not gonna happen, but considering the Prince was described as kind and helpful in the storybook, it'd be a neat twist if all the bad happenings and violent creations were accidents or unintended creations during the Singularity's slumber.
considering all the data from this video... it seems like it would be at least very hard (if possible at all) for such solution to be really convincing. I mean how the cult would have such great influence on the creatures seemingly being somewhat created by the "Singularity"? How would they of so vastly different nature than it?
@@Lyokoheros-KLPXTV could easily be explained as a organic/non-conscious response like our own immune system or whatnot. The "prince's" body is seeking out nutrients to repair itself, and as a higher being its organic functions are seemingly intelligent enough to mimic humans but is completely out of the prince's control while he's asleep.
@@Lyokoheros-KLPXTV how it comes off to me is that the cult fed the "prince" humans and animals at the start, making the singularity than go after flesh organisms as the main source of food later on. Essentially training it to go after anything with flesh as it's all its known as a source for food.
@@mouse2438I thought the same. I feel the cult corrupted the “prince” by feeding it flesh.
The Prince is literally fSatan.
After watching the harvestor a couple months ago
I was very terrified to go outside a bit. What’s worse was I had to go to the forest to walk my dogs so that was fun.
I can say that I did get nightmares from that video of people getting killed by harvestor,
If you haven’t watched it and want to watch it- please don’t.
To simplify it there’s lots of screaming and gore.

8:40
It’s unnerving trust me I didn’t trust mat pat and I regret it
I can remember watching the whole series live with wendigoon on his channel and whenever we got to the harvester death video I was so impressed yet so abhorrently disturbed. It's weird how the most unrealistic thing for me to get killed by scares me the most out of the vita carnis line.
I should had take his word for it...
We all should have
More videos have been posted in this series since this video's posting. However, I think I just cracked some of why things are happening.
What's known so far (with season 1 of 3 out) is that there's a cult that seems to be asking some entity for help, as mentioned in the various still frames that tell a fairytale style story mixed in with some of the videos.
The thought popped into my head: if the cult us asking for help, what are each of the variations of the Carnis supposed to do?
By order of appearance for what I can remember:
The Crawl: a meat plant that can both survive off dead flesh of wildlife and be photosynthetic; it also grows in abundance everywhere. Problem to solve: world hunger.
Trimmings: little scavenger critters that eat mostly detritus and trash materials. Problem to solve: waste proliferation
Meat Snakes: scavengers that "feed" off dead bodies. They directly incorporate the materials in its body, growing in proportion to availability. One had been discovered after a major war in a subway tunnel that was large enough to fit the tunnel and be closer to 100 meters in length. Problem to solve: war, more so as a deterrent.
Now for the more terrifying of the Carnis
Mimics: humanoid entities that feed exclusively off humans and are the perfect predator for humans. Problem to solve: overpopulation of humans
Harvesters: stationary, bulbous entities that feed off larger creatures via entrapment strategies. Problem to solve: overpopulation of deer and non-carnis predators due to lack of human intervention. Secondary purpose is to guard the cult's main base, Facility 0 (located in the Hudson Bay in this fictional world), due to the unusually high concentration of them in the surrounding area.
Hosts of Influence: stationary, humanoid entities that feed off humans. They produce orange, mind controlling spore clouds to attract prey. Problem to solve: control of the masses. The same orange spores may be found in the "flavor enhancer" product that everyone seems to be buying. Likely to quell revolution against the cult.
Now, that's all I've managed to piece together with any level of certainty, as the remaining two entities are deliberately obscured regarding information. I can't say for certain, but I can speculate their usefulness based on what's known.
The Monoliths: seven towering, humanoid entities that surround a location important to the cult worshiping the source of the Carnis. Their heads resemble the cult's logo. They can also emit offensive EMP blasts to disrupt advanced systems and are also highly regenerative. They have tendrils that go from their feet and into the ground for extraordinary distances. Likely problems to solve: protection of the cult's main base, Facility 0 and likely source of the Carnis; this otherworldly Prince entity.
The Singularity: There are seven of these entities with the supposed main at Facility 0. They emit various frequencies that the other Carnis may be listening to. Trimmings, for example, are drawn to listening to the radio and TV. The cult is attempting to find all seven and bring them to Facility 0 for yet unknown reasons. Possible problems to solve: control of the Carnis, assuming they spawned from the Crawl like the rest. As it stands, this may not be the case.
Matpat and Dead Meat are easily my 2 favourite TH-cam channels. Same vibe too. Just a group of really passionate people that love each other and love their audience and have a ton of fun making content for us
EXACTLY. I could never put it to words, but that's exactly what this is.
This is the most original analog horror i have seen. The creativity, the biology aspects, the realism and the scifi fantasy. Probably one of my favourites
Eh, while it’s definitely good. I would definitely say Gemini Home entertainment is a huge inspiration for this project
@@sirwillswag5581Just because other analog horror series have red meat monsters too, doesn't make this series any less original.
These days everything's been done at least once, you could take literally any piece of media and you'd find another similar one.
@@sirwillswag5581 In what way? I'd say it's more like Medelo Catelogs than Gemini, and even then it's not less original to be inspired by something else; nor can you really even know if it was inspired, you're just making assumptions. To dock it because you happen to know about something that's slightly similar in some very loose ways doesn't seem fair
@@thegeneralgamer4921 well, that’s my point it’s not particularly original but it’s still entertaining.

Aww the little turtle is so adorable! 💕
3:54 Amazing word choice

The meat snakes remind me of the “Wife of the Thunderer” story. It’s a Native American story, and it’s about this girl who meets the Thunder Gods and they tell her about an evil serpent that eats the dead buried bodies of her people. It poisoned the rivers for more food, and comes out once a year I think to feast. It just reminded me of the Native American story, and it’s cool to think that the meat snake might’ve been inspired by it!
that's actually a really interesting story
Woah, that’s cool! Is it specific to any tribe? Are there different variations of it depending on the area?

In the harvester documentary, the harvesters density/population start to move toward the island. I think this is the critters/humans giving food to to the prince/singularity, and in the next videos we will see other entities begin to move toward the island with the monoliths as well.

@Chaoticallyepic I've been meaning to do a further dive into it, thanks for the recommendation :)
One thing that has thrown me off a bit is the last 3 creatures. In every other creature it always brings up how they originate from the crawl.
Like the trimming and mimics are broken off nodules. The harvester is an expanded node. The meat snake “separates” from the crawl.
But the host, monoliths and singularity are never mentioned as to how they’re from the crawls and yet the tree implies that they are. And those 3 seem most interesting to the lore. The hosts’ spores are in the flavor enhancer, the monoliths are giants standing stationary in a circle and the singularity we know almost nothing about.
“In the end of meaning and reality even flesh itself will lose its true meaning”-the man of wisdom and the creator
i actually had an idea for this once, without watching the video and more just practicing horror drawings. I made a thing called the Strayer, they kinda work like a mimic, but they can contort their limbs to have an advantage on their prey.
I have more than just the Strayer though, but that would make an essay, not a comment or reply.
Another detail that seems useful to notice is the fact that the name of the organisation behind the documentary (C.A.R.C.A.S) is very similar to the word carcass which means cadaver.
No it’s literally just carcas aka a dead body

9:00 "Big Birds eyes could see very far and see things that we cannot see."
FINALY! Finaly u made a video on this!! Yay!
One minor issue I have is that... the "Children's Story As Metaphor for Vita Carnis" is...
By this definition, wouldn't that make the Singularity a benevolent entity? Since the whole thing about the prince was them promising to aid the critters when they awaken.
I agree. I'm assuming he meant that this is what the cult thinks is going to happen. Like maybe they wrote the story because they believe this will save them. However, it's not implied anywhere that the cult came before the story or that they wrote it. It's not like the story doesn't actually exist in universe either and is just a metaphor for what's happening because we see real physical pages on the screen. It honestly makes more sense to think that this is the return of the prince and he's healing the creatures land with his magic somehow in a continuation of the story.
Maybe humans have taken the land from another species that helped the prince in the past or humans were the species(supported by the fact we had the story book maybe it happened so long ago no one knows it was real) but because we have destroyed the planet so much he is helping us by killing some of us.
Maybe the singularity thinks it's helping but it's idea of help is destructive to us humans
@@hibye2420 FAir enough... and I guess there's also the question of the battle between individual vs collective health. A god who legitimately DOES help the environment but also needs human sacrifices to sustain itself
@@hibye2420 I think there was a point he missed in that the singularity is often represented as the point where all space and time stops, which could have something to do with the mysteru
A series I'd be thrilled to see matpat dive into is Murder Drones. Chock full of his favorite things. Talking funny robots with souls of others inside them and LORE!!
I love how he never mentioned about how there's 7 monoliths surrounding this one area that doesn't actually exist and how they are guarding singularity
Reminds me of a proposed SCP 001 “when day breaks”
Thanks for covering this series MatPat, it's super underrated!
Just reported a bot that stole your comment. I'm replying so that the original gets pushed up.
7:31 pov: you are playing hide and seek
This is so old. So we will need a part 2 because that will be truly good.
"Some Delicious, Some Dangerous" idk why I laughed at that phrase.
I LOVE the fact that you help other content creators to grow by making theories about their projects
6:30 This is the first time I've heard MatPat laugh in the theory videos and I am thankful to the Meat Snake for letting us experience that.
what about the glow in the dark foxy figurine, I thought he laughed there...
@@KadenRobinson-vt9nv I have no idea about that one.
vita carnis genuinley scared me to my core. I hunt for fun and the idea that my skill as a hunter and my weapon are inadequate against something you cant stop is terrifying.
“That’s pretty long!” And “it’s harder and longer than normal meat snakes” got me dieing!! 😂😂😂😂
