It's the Movies for Me

Sometimes I’m astounded at the impact movies have made on my life and the inordinate amount of time I’ve spent watching them. This is particularly surprising to me because as I kid I watched a lot more TV than films and in my early teen years certainly spent more time obsessing about singer-songwriters and their relentless existential introspections. (Note: I came of age in the early seventies…

"Aren't you his mother?" On Sons, Mothers, & Rosemary's Baby

“Aren’t you his mother?” On Sons, Mothers, & Rosemary’s Baby

My mother doesn’t do horror. If it’s scarier or gorier than a Hitchcock thriller, good luck getting her to watch. I’m pretty sure she’s scarred to this day from joining my father and I to see Blade II in theaters. It wasn’t the last Del Toro picture I convinced her to see, but it was certainly the last time she ever saw a spine exposed in an underground vampire BDSM club. While she likely hasn’t…

Review: Apartment 7A -- Fantastic Fest 2024

Apartment 7A is screening as part of the 2024 Fantastic Fest, which runs from September 19 to September 26. I’d be lying if I said I’ve read Ira Levin’s 1967 novel Rosemary’s Baby. Although, it sits on my dining room table (because the one bookcase I own overflows). It is a burnt orange hardcover volume, slim, with similarly orange-y paper, as the book is from the original Random House printing.…

Rosemary's Baby by Ira Levin | Book Review

Rosemary’s Baby by Ira Levin, a horror cult classic. The story is actually about a cult; an occult kind of cult. Not the Manson-family kind of type but the real elite and secret society kind of occult. I wished that I had read this one earlier. It’s suspenseful from the beginning and holds the suspense reasonably well towards the end. Rosemary and her husband, Guy, are looking for an apartment…

"Late Night With The Devil". Not really a movie movie, but the eyes have it...

Late Night With The Devil poster I don’t normally post reviews on here, but I saw a preview of Late Night With The Devil earlier this week. It opens in UK and US cinemas today and it opens up a whole can of interesting worms.  I guess the elevator pitch was something along the lines of The Exorcist meets The Blair Witch Project on a late-night US chat show – although ads are plugging it as…

Paramount Scares 4K UHD Review: Rosemary's Baby and Secret Movie

Rosemary’s Baby was too monumental a 4K UHD release to just release it alone, although you can just buy that if you want. But it also inspired Paramount Home Entertainment to collect five titles in Paramount Scares. I will also review the secret new title so don’t read past Rosemary’s if you still want to blind buy the set. The main setting of Rosemary’s Baby is the apartment building, but it…

Six Stunning Houses in Literature

Six Stunning Houses in Literature

I have always been fascinated by certain houses in novels. They exert a strange power over me, especially if they are part of gothic stories. Maybe because I have been living in apartments for more than half of my life now, I am somewhat jealous of the large spaces, yards, porches, gardens, the lack of noisy neighbors, and maybe the safety of the proximity of the ground those houses provide –…

LOOK WHAT'S HAPPENED TO ROSEMARY'S BABY Reviews and free on YouTube

Look What’s Happened to Rosemary’s Baby is a 1976 horror film in which now adult Adrian must cope with the fact that he’s Satan’s offspring, and not living up to his expectations. Directed by Sam O’Steen from a screenplay by Anthony Wilson. It is a made-for-TV belated sequel to the 1968 film Rosemary’s Baby (which O’Steen edited) but has little connection to the 1967 novel by Ira Levin, on which…

A Taste of Urban Wyrd Cinema

Urban Wyrd: A mode not a genre. A sense of otherness within the narrative, experience, image or feeling concerning a densely human-constructed area or the in-between spaces and edge-lands bordering the bucolic and the built -up: Or surrounding modern technology with regard to another energy at play or in control: be it supernatural, spiritual, historical, nostalgic or psychological.

Outfest LA 2021 Film Review: Knocking (Knackningar) ★★★★

Outfest LA 2021 Film Review: Knocking (Knackningar) ★★★★

Based on the novella by Johan Theorin, Swedish filmmaker Frida Kempff’s unsettling debut feature Knocking (or Knackningar in Swedish, such a delicious word) which played Outfest LA 2021 on Saturday night, is a sophisticated psychological horror and a masterclass in tension, spare dialogue, and intricate sound design. At its centre is a compelling performance by Cecilia Milocco as Molly, a woman…

Notebook Reviews: THE NINTH GATE

Notebook Reviews: THE NINTH GATE

Roman Polanski – 1999 Roman Polanski‘s The Ninth Gate is an entertaining (if superficial) horror–thriller. The film sports a great turn from Johnny Depp as a rare book seller who goes in search of a devilish tome. It’s a good role for Depp, one which plays to his strengths as an off-beat performer. Parallels to Polanski’s other occult thriller, Rosemary’s Baby shouldn’t be made as The Ninth…
