I had a similar thing happen to me with Dark City. It took me 30 minutes to realize that the contrast on my TV was turned all the way down and that in fact, you were supposed to see something that wasn’t just really, really dark.

I watched the movie Hush, a horror movie about a deaf woman, on mute without knowing until after it was over. I thought it was a really creative artistic choice

That’s one of my favorite horror flicks. Release the mute cut!

I had something similar with a download of Eraserhead. The audio was corrupted, the best way I could describe it is running water with a ton of reverb slightly chopped. I thought it was an interesting choice. 30 minutes in, I realized it was a bad copy when someone finally spoke.

It’s legitimately very funny, I felt really really dumb but it’s a good story
