Race With The Devil 1975

Two couples on a driving holiday in a motorhome down Texas way stumble across some Satanists. Who amongst us hasn't ?🤣😈 The Satanists,inevitably,have to kill them

It's a slow burner but the ending is scary.It's one of those "They're all in on it" themes

Black Christmas 1974

The best Christmas film by a mile

The original slasher,the original 'the calls are coming from inside the house' and,best of all, there is no neat and tidy conclusion-we never know the killer or his motivation.

The opening POV tracking shot sets the tone.

The Great Rock n Roll Swindle 1980
Still maintain this is the best music bio
It's satire,comedy,fantasy,myth,messy,incomprehensible,abstract,tasteless,exploitation,insulting,debunking,confusing,perverse and above all else....TRUE!

Mr Everyman himself,well,most of the time.

The best scene in the film - their look,the music,coming over the brow of the hill,the panic of The Warriors.
Perfect

Exactly,although this is more of a clearing.😆

The Nudist Story(1960) aka For Members Only (ooerr missus)
Found this gem on the brilliant @talkingpicturestv.bsky.social

Ostensibly an earnest look at naturism but really just a chance to look at naked people.

Like a Benny Hill skit to our jaded eyes,with strategically placed teapots etc.😆

Wonder if they bought them from here?
This is an ad from 1985.Sadly no more.

Until 2003 it was a storage unit for an Insurance co .I was moving the boxes of docs out to a w'hse in Glos.

As we were moving stuff out they were moving stuff in.
Quite interesting seeing a stuffed bear,2 headed calf,mannequinns in KKK robes & a Dalek amongst many other curios at work.😆

I only discovered this a few years ago.Scary,brutal and brilliant.

It's like Apocalypse Now in the outback,and shows just how easily we can lose civilisation.

Donald Pleasance has never been so good.

When two cultures clash.

Psychedelic,biblical,surreal,trippy and brutal.

Lots of improvising,brilliant music and brilliant colour.

Nosferatu

Herzog,Kinski,Gantz,Adjani and a stellar supporting cast.

A slow,claustrophobic,narcotic,sickly tone throughout.

The settings are the cherry on the parfait.

Perfect.

Reminds me of some of the sets from Jacques Tatis 'Play Time'.
I expect this and similar designs influenced him although of course Tatis point was that the design was form over function.

Re-watched for the 1st time in nearly 50 yrs

An environmental film,from the escaping the polluted city to the green countryside where experimental radioactive pest control on farms wakes the dead

Spanish/Italian B film but it stands up, esp the effects

Love it

Lived in southern Peru for 4 yrs in the 70s
Funny that you eventually take these for granted & the equally impressive terrace systems in the mountains.

The mountain villages,built on the grid system, looked like Spaghetti western sets.

Me,Cusco,not M Picchu, 75 or 76 .Only 6 angles😆

Picnic at Hanging Rock.(1975)

Profound and trippy.

Got it all:
horror,mystery,suspense,thriller,sci-fi,police procedural,colonialism,end of empire,brutal nature,order,formality,decay,mysticism,sex and,best of all,no neat and tidy conclusion.
