Once upon a time, in a small town, there lived a blind man named Mark. Mark was a kind and humble person who lived a simple life, relying on his other senses to navigate the world. However, his life changed forever when he received an unusual gift.
One day, Mark was approached by a mysterious stranger who offered him an eye. The stranger claimed that the eye had the power to grant Mark sight, but warned him that it was not of this world. Mark, desperate to regain his sight, accepted the eye without hesitation.
As soon as the eye was implanted, Mark's world was filled with light. He could see every detail and every colour with clarity that he had never experienced before. But, as he soon discovered, the eye had more to offer than just sight. It gave him powers that he never could have imagined.
With the eye, Mark was able to perform incredible feats of strength, speed, and agility. He decided to use his newfound powers to help those in need and quickly gained a reputation as a superhero in his town. People would come to him with their problems and he would use his powers to solve them.
However, not everyone was pleased with Mark's newfound abilities. The aliens who had created the eye were not satisfied with the fact that a human now possessed their technology. They saw the dead alien who had given Mark the eye as a traitor and set out to reclaim their stolen technology.
The aliens searched the town for Mark, determined to take back the eye and eliminate the human who had dared to use it. Mark was aware of the danger that he was in, but he refused to give up the eye. He felt that it was his responsibility to use its powers for good, to help others who were in need.
One night, as Mark was on a mission to save a group of people from a burning building, the aliens caught up to him. They attacked him with all their might, but Mark was too powerful for them. With his alien eye, he was able to defeat them and protect the people he had been sent to save.
However, the aliens were not willing to give up so easily. They returned in greater numbers, determined to reclaim the eye and eliminate the human who possessed it. Mark was faced with his toughest battle yet, but he refused to back down. He stood his ground, fighting for the people he had come to protect and for the eye that had given him a second chance at life.
In the end, Mark emerged victorious, but he was left with a choice. He could continue to use the eye's powers to help others, but he would always be in danger from the aliens who sought to reclaim it. Or, he could give up the eye and return to his life as a blind man.
Mark decided to keep an eye out and continue his mission to help those in need. He knew that there would always be a danger, but he was prepared to face it head-on. He would use his powers to protect the innocent and make the world a better place, no matter what the cost.
And so, Mark the blind man with an alien eye continued to use his powers to help others and make the world a better place. His story became a legend, a tale of bravery and hope in the face of danger. And even though the aliens continued to search for him, he was never caught. He remained a mystery, a superhero who could never be defeated.
The story will continue...

Infinity Pool (2023)
At the start of Brandon Cronenberg's "Infinity Pool," the audience is greeted with a blank screen and a woman's whispered question. This woman is Em Foster, and her husband James has been talking in his sleep. Two phrases that are heard are "brain death," setting the tone for the film's ominous journey.

The Inferno Elixir: A Legacy of Blood
1. The Sinister Stillness of the Village My grandfather had always been an enigmatic man, but in the last three years, his eccentricity had crossed into something far more unsettling. He lived alone in a secluded house far from the city’s clamor, tucked away in a village perpetually choked by mist. We assumed he was merely grieving the loss of my grandmother and his lifelong friend, but his gaze hid something deeper than sorrow—a secret that was slowly devouring his soul. During my last visit, I was struck by the sight of his refrigerator; it was grotesquely overstuffed with heaps of raw meat. He claimed with a cold detachment that it was for the poor, but his face betrayed the lie. Even more disturbing was the reinforced steel door he had installed in the basement, from which a foul stench seeped through the cracks—a smell like a carcass that refused to stay buried. 2. A Descent into the Abyss Late that night, I took advantage of my grandfather’s heavy sleep. With trembling fingers, I pilfered a modern, sophisticated key from his cabinet. I descended the decaying stairs into the basement, my flashlight cutting through the oppressive gloom. The air there didn't just smell of rot; it smelled like a slaughterhouse. Dry bloodstains smeared the walls, and in the corners lay bleached-white human skeletons. I approached the reinforced room and peered through a tiny peephole. The blood froze in my veins. A gaunt creature, its bones protruding obscenely from its skin, stood there. Its hair was so long it trailed behind it like a shroud. It moved on all fours with a demonic fluidity. Suddenly, its eyes—completely white—locked onto the hole. It wasn't looking at me; it was scenting me. 3. The Bitter Truth Before I could flee, I felt the sharp sting of a needle in my neck. The world dissolved into darkness. I awoke inside a hermetically sealed glass chamber. My grandfather stood on the other side of the glass, weeping bitterly as he recounted the catastrophe: > "Three years ago, your grandmother was on the brink of death. A stranger with non-human features knocked on my door and gave me a dark red elixir, claiming it was the salvation. I injected her, but she transformed into this ravenous monster. I killed my oldest friend and fed him to her just to protect her secret. I love her, Alex, and I cannot let you leave to expose the truth of her 'death' to the world." > 4. The Banquet of Blood The glass barrier began to rise slowly, and the monstrosity crouched, ready to pounce. Suddenly, a scream pierced the silence. My younger brother, Thomas, had followed me. With a heavy blow from a sharp tool, he struck our grandfather, sending him sprawling into the room. In a moment of primal madness, the creature lunged at my grandfather, tearing into his flesh with unspeakable ferocity. Thomas and I fled, the screams echoing behind us, until the police arrived and ended the nightmare with a hail of bullets into the body of what was once my grandmother. 5. The Vicious Cycle A year has passed since that night, and I thought I had survived. But fate plays a cruel game. It is now the anniversary of my grandfather’s death, and my brother Thomas is wasting away from a rare, terminal illness. Last night, amidst the darkness, a stranger knocked on my door—matching the exact description my grandfather once gave. He placed a small box in my hand containing a vial of dark red liquid and hissed into my ear: "This is the only cure for your brother." The stranger vanished as if he never existed. I analyzed the liquid in a lab, and the results were bone-chilling: "A substance extracted from an unknown biological entity, non-existent in any natural record." I hold the vial in my hand now, looking at my pale brother, hearing the echo of my grandfather’s voice in my head. Do I repeat the tragedy? Do I begin a new massacre in the name of love? The elixir is before me, and hell is waiting just behind the door. Would you like me to create a "Book Cover" style description for this story, or perhaps suggest a sequel?
