A while back I was on @severinfilms.bsky.social BluRay of “Viy”, talking about Russian/Soviet horror & scifi. Here’s a @letterboxd.social list of the films I mentioned, plus more. It’s still very incomplete, so I might expand it, but it’s a sort of starter pack to the subject. boxd.it/QjiKI/detail

Goodnight from Jack Hurley, still taking helpful directions from his dead wife as he pushes their Vauxhall Victor F towards Burwood. Goodnight from Chas Foster, fixing newspapers to the windows of his shed so no-one can see him making illegal sprite traps. Goodnight from Hookland.

Helen Gahagan Douglas in SHE (1935), a performance that inspired the villainess in SNOW WHITE AND THE SEVEN DWARFS (1937)

HGD was BOTD in 1900. A passionate advocate for migrant workers, she ran against Richard Nixon for senator in 1950 but lost after he accused her of being a communist.

Despite its drug underworld setting, DRIFTING lacks the intoxicating luridness of Browning's best work. For most of the running time it's a run of the mill melodrama. Only in the homestretch, when everything's aflame and Dean proves herself handy with a rifle, does it feel like something special.

This French horror movie — about how a new pesticide contaminates wine, causing painful oozing sores on the inflicted before turning them into oozing pestilant demi zombies bent on murder — is like a Pertwee era Doctor Who story, if there wasn't a Doctor, but there were lots of boobs and bush.

People ask why I followed The Hum wanting trite answers about a disaffected youth looking for direction. Walking The Hum pylon-to-pylon gave me spiritual direction, but no-one wants to hear about my devotional relationship to the land's electric leys. – Trippy Pete, ex-Pylon Person #VOH

On this day (25th November) in 1981, the Scala Cinema was showing Corvette Summer aka The Hot One and Sweet Revenge as a double bill. These were shown every day that week as the programmers considered them under appreciated and shelved by Hollywood.

So I'm editing the Edinburgh Edition of Arthur Conan Doyle's The Lost World. Relatedly, if you're in the UK and you or your library possess the deluxe large paper British edition (1912 or 1914 versions), please let me know. It's the version with Iguanodon footprints on the cover.
