Then God said, “And behold, when the fourth seal was opened, there arose four upon the crest of the storm: pipes skirling doom, bellows wheezing famine, strings twanging conquest, drum thundering regret. Power given to afflict the earth with cursed reel forever.”
A stylized illustration shows four wide-eyed, cartoon-like musicians seated on curling, wave-shaped ground beneath a dramatic, cloudy sky. From left to right: one plays a stringed instrument resembling a mandolin, another stands playing bagpipes while wearing a kilt and top hat, the third plays an accordion, and the fourth beats a hand drum. The landscape around them twists into dark, spiraling shapes, giving a surreal, ominous feel despite the whimsical character designs. At the bottom of the image, decorative text reads: “The Four Musicians of the Apocalypse.” BY UNKNOWN CARTOONIST

The Washington Post published a clear video of federal agents removing Alex Pretti's handgun moments before he was fatally shot. There's nothing in the video to suggest Pretti even reached for his weapon.

It's not often we get treated to a brand new film stock, and of all the films released last year, Kentmere 200 was the one that I got excited about, and for good reason. It's an amazing film stock.
