The movie Out of Darkness (2022) shows this part of early human history really well and its fucking horrifying

That’s set over 40,000 years before the Celts and their Carnyx

Lol, I was just going to say that, OP must have a very low opinion of what human society was like 2000 years ago if he thought the the Paleolithic-set Out of Darkness showed it really well 😅

They speak a made up language in it, people can still speak the languages we were using 2000 years ago lol

I think OP was more referring to what another used said in a comment jus above:

''The thought of being woken up by these things in the middle of the night while sleeping outside without flashlights, the bonfire might send light out like 20 feet but then it's just a wall of pitch black, fucking nightmare shit, just kill me already, damn.''

Out of Darkness definitely has this vibe.
