The crash of Oceanic Flight 815, 24-style

Thursday, January 21, 2010



This is pretty cool, and I'm a little surprised that apparently nobody thought to do it before. It's all of the stuff that was happening on Lost - on the island and in the air, in the moments before, during and after the fateful crash of Oceanic Flight 815 - all edited into one clip, 24-style. One could quibble with some of the editing choices and this clearly isn't a pro job, but there's no denying this clip is cleverly put together.

I'm surprised to see so little of the "tailies" in here. Did we really never get to see any scenes of Ana Lucia and company before the crash? (If you're wondering where that spooky clip of Jack's dead dad comes from, I believe it's from one of the "minisodes" that ABC used to post in the show's early days.)

No matter how many times we see it, that crash never stops being scary as hell.

Who is he, this one who is called "Greg Stacy"?

Greg Stacy began the MONSTERS AND ROCKETS blog in April of 2009. Prior to that, he was editor of the popular sci-fi/horror news website DARKWOLDS.COM. He has also written for LA WEEKLY, OC WEEKLY, UTNE READER and LOS ANGELES CITYBEAT. He always feels weird writing about himself in the third person.
