Evdeki Düşman:Başlangıç

Bir kaçış öyküsü

Kendinden dünyadan kaçmak içindi bütün çabası. Saklandığı ev aslında onun esir kambın olacaktı.

Tam “dinsizin hakkından imansız gelir” lafının filmi gibi

Korku severler her daim ayrı bir duruş ile sevdiği filmlerden . Bunun bir özelliği tabii ki filmden sonra aynı buna benzer bir gerçek bir olayın yaşanması. Yapımcılar olayın birinci perdesini çekmeye ikna etmiş gözüküyor.

Ve filme geçelim.

Akıl hastanesinden kaçarak zengin bir ailenin kaybolan çocuğunun yerine geçen bir kızın hikayesini konu ediyor. Rusya’da bir psikiyatri kliniğinde yatan Leena Klammer, uzun süredir kaçmayı planlar. Sonunda amacına ulaşan Leena’nın önündeki hedef yeni bir kurban aile. Amerikalı varlıklı bir ailenin kayıp kızı rolüne bürünerek oyununa başlar. Ancak Leena’nın artık "Esther" olduğu yeni hayatında planlamadığı bir durum vardır. Anne Tricia, çocuklarını korumak için Esther’in karşısına dikilen her şeyi göze alan biridir.

Bir yetim olan Esther yine kendinden nefret ettiriyor ama bu kez büyük bir farkla: Ondan daha nefretlik bir aileyle birlikte.... Filmin aile kavramıyla alakalı bazı dertleri olduğunu görüyoruz. Yer yer donu ifadeler her an patlamaya hazır bir bomba izlenimi yaratıyor.

Ailenin de yozlaşmış ve sevgi değil mecburiyetten birbirine katlanan bir grup insanın. Dengelerini korumak için neler yapabileceğine tanık oluyoruz . Her ailenin bir sırrı vardır . Esther ise sırlarını ile gelen bir yabancıydı . Sırlar ortak hedef uğruna aynı masada toplanmalarına sahne mi olacak? Yoksa savaş çok daha sert mi geçecek ? Seyircinin gerilmesine ,izlemesine ve beklentiyi yüksek tutan bir film karşınızda. Bazen bir aileye dahil olmak yalnızlıktan çok daha kötüdür .

Synopsis:

The crew of the USS Enterprise was assigned to survey a sector of the galaxy known as the Delta Triangle. More precisely, to research about the mysterious disappearance of a high number of starships on the region from ancient times.

Once there, the ship had a massive failiure of its sensors and to make the situtation worse, they were received by a squadron of three Klingon battlecruisers, Captain Kirk orders Lieutenant Sulu to fire phasers to the IKS Klothos. The shoots made point blank on the Klingonian vessel but it disappeared, not destroyed.

One commander of the remaining two Klingon ships blamed Kirk, but the captain decides to move forward to the same place the Klothos was at maximum warp speed. As closer it gets to the place, the ship's crew felt very dizzy by the effect of an ion storm. Suddenly, they were in a place the captain describes as “an interstellar Sargasso Sea” filled with a lot of centuries-old alien starships. One of them, the USS Bonaventure.

The Entrerprise had another encounter with the Klothos, but right at the moment both of the captains orders to attack their foes, they were suddenly transported to one of the ships. The one that gathers the Ruling Council of the area named Elysia. That council is composed of 123 races that learned to live peacefully over one thousand years. Every act of violence is punished severely. It is not a parallel universe, is a place with no stars nor planets, a place where time ceased to move, a pocket in the garment of time.

Captain Kirk and Captain Kor are facing charges of committing acts of violence and they are both facing a sentence of a hundred years of immobilization of their ships and crew. The council's leader, a Romulan named Xerius pardons both of the captains due to their ignorance of Elysia's law. They were turned back to their respective ships.

At the Ruling Council, an alien female with psionic powers named Magen perceived both of the crews from the Enterprise and the Klothos are planning to escape. Another of the Ruling Council members, an Orion slave girl named Devna was opposed to that idea because she deemed they will die and appealed to Xerius to stop them but the council's leader told her it does not infringe any of the Elysian's laws to try to escape from there.

At the Enterprise, Kirk tries to find the way to escape from there. He has to do something quickly before the disintegration of the dilithium crystals. The Klingons tried first, but they were unsuccessful. Spock devises a formula based on the failure of the Klingonian ship. He proposes Kirk a solution by linking both their ship and the one of their foes using both warp drives together as one.

During the gathering of both captains and first officers aboard the Klothos, Spock showed very friendly with the Klingons. It made Doctor McCoy very suspicious about the welfare of their first officer. He asks Kirk to talk with him about the subject and he agrees. Spock tells the captain that he felt the thoughts of the Klingonian officers and knows that although is not clear for him, they are planning something evil.

The Elysians celebrated a party for both Federation and Klingonian crews. After performing a dance, Devna told to the federation captain that she wanted to be on her home planet again but she thinks it is impossible to move out from this place and begs Kirk not to try. He told her that his home may not be perfect as Elysia, but it is his home no matter its imperfections. Also, during the feast, a Klingon officer started a fight with McCoy. Both ships' captains were on trial by the ruling council again as responsible for the conduct of their crews.

This time, Kirk begs pardon for Kor and his crew because they need them so much for their escape plan. Xerius understood Kirk's intentions and granted the way out of the punishment to the Klingons. During the trial, a female Klingonian officer named Kaz, put an explosive capsule in the warp drive control computer system of the Enterprise.

As the launch of both of the ships' begins, Magen perceived the sabotage to the federation's ship by their counterparts. And the council sends the message to Kirk. Spock throws out the capsule out of the ship before it explodes at warp 8. Both of the ships made their way out of Elysia. Kor takes all the credit for their success, but it is unimportant to Kirk.

Fascinating Facts:

This episode was written by actress and writer Joyce Perry. It was inspired by legend of the Bermuda Triangle. A region located between Bermuda, Florida and Puerto Rico. According to the myth, there was a lot of mysterious disappearance of ships and airplanes in that area. An urban legend very popular in the second half of the 20th century. It was the source of inspiration for many science fiction and fantasy works of that time.

Also, it is a mention of the Sargasso sea. A region in the north of the Atlantic Ocean that has an abundant brown seaweed called sargassum. It also bounded by four currents forming an ocean gyre.

This is the second time the Klingon character, Kor has appeared in a episode. The first time was in a season one episode, “Errand Of Mercy”. It was played by actor John Colicos. He was not available at the time this episode, the voice for Kor was played by James Doohan. Colicos returned to the Kor character years later for three episodes of Deep Space Nine.

This is the last time the Klingons made their appearance with smooth foreheads. Years later, their appearance changed for the 1979 film, Star Trek: The Motion Picture.

This is the episode were Nichelle Nichols played the most characters in a single episode. A total of four: Uhura, Devna, Magen and Kaz.

Most of the designs for the starships stuck in the area of Elysia were unapproved designs for the insectoid pod starship from the pilot episode, “To The Farthest Of The Stars”.

“It is ironic that the adventure in this episode is erased from everyone’s memory. For when I began to watch it I realized I had forgotten it as well. With most episodes I haven’t seen in a long time I usually remember the plot in the first five minutes, this time the only thing I recognized was Tchar. I think the episode was a victim to the structure of only being a half-hour plus commercials cartoon show. Once the plot was explained there wasn’t much time for anything else to happen. It was too bad because the show started our strong and the team that was assembled was neat; however everything was too quickly resolved.”

Review: Sabrina, the Teenage Witch (TV Animated Series 1971-1974)

Episode 1 – The Fairy Godmother ~ Hiccups

Directed by: Hal Sutherland

By Sofi Ojeda

"Sabrina the Teenage Witch" from 1970 was an animated series that unfolded its magical world through traditional animation techniques. Created by Filmation, the show utilized hand-drawn animation, a prevalent method during that era. The materials primarily involved paper, pencils, ink, and painted cels layered over backgrounds. The episodes were captured using traditional animation cameras, where each hand-drawn frame was photographed sequentially to create the illusion of motion.

Originally a character from the comics, Sabrina Spellman was created by writer George Gladir and artist Dan DeCarlo. She first appeared in the 22nd issue of the humor anthology Archie’s Mad House in 1962. Originally intended as a one-off character, the overwhelming positive response from fans prompted the creators to continue producing new stories with her, eventually leading to her own titles and numerous appearances per year.

Her transition to the small screen was met with enthusiastic reception. Starting as part of "The Archie Comedy Hour," Sabrina's popularity soared, and audience demand for more of her presence led to the development of her standalone series. This success was pivotal in launching Sabrina into her own show, where her adventures as a teenage witch at Riverdale High captivated a broad audience, primarily targeting young girls aged 6 to 14.

During its initial run, "Sabrina the Teenage Witch" became the highest-rated children’s program of 1970, garnering immense popularity and setting the stage for further developments in the Archie Comics franchise. The overwhelming demand and positive reception culminated in Sabrina's branching out into her own series and expanding her appearances in various media.

The animated series left an indelible mark, contributing to Sabrina's enduring legacy. Her character transcended the realm of animation, eventually transitioning into a live-action series. The subsequent live-action adaptation starred Melissa Joan Hart, further solidifying Sabrina's place in popular culture and introducing her magical world to a new generation of viewers.

The series centered on Sabrina Spellman, a teenage witch attending Riverdale High, attempting to balance her everyday teenage life with her magical abilities. It depicted her interactions with her aunts, Hilda and Zelda, her magical cat Salem, and her friends, including her bumbling boyfriend Harvey Kinkle, within the backdrop of a vibrant and lively setting.

However, its reception and impact have transcended its original airing. The series remains a notable part of animation history, especially within the context of introducing and popularizing Sabrina as a character. Its legacy extends through subsequent adaptations, including a live-action series starring Melissa Joan Hart, which further cemented Sabrina's place in popular culture.

Overall, "Sabrina the Teenage Witch" (1970) serves as a nostalgic gem for those who fondly remember the animated adventures of the charming teenage witch and her escapades in Riverdale. It’s Impact remains evident through Sabrina's continued presence in various forms of media even today.

Rituals

Peter Carter’s RITUALS (1977, Shudder, Amazon Prime), aka THE CREEPER, is trying hard to be Eugene O’Neill’s DELIVERANCE. It’s certainly got his tin ear for dialogue, but O’Neill brought the past up as a tactic where people might logically do so. Here, it comes out whenever writer Ian Sutherland feels like it — “I’m not following your plan to save our lives because you deserted your father.” — that sort of thing. A quintet of doctors is dropped off in the Canadian wilderness, where a wild man with a mad on against the medical profession torments and kills them. Hal Holbrook and the Canadian actors cast as his colleagues try hard, but there’s not much they can do with material that has them shouting recriminations at each other while they’re trying to escape the madman. There are a few interesting things about the film. Some of the deaths are only caused indirectly by the killer, and Holbrook accumulates a higher body count than the mostly unseen monster (played by the assistant director). One doctor’s injury renders him delirious, and his rantings about how to train a chimpanzee to salute are a surprising ostinato accompanying the other doctors’ attempts to get to safety. At one point, the survivors hit a stretch of land devastated by a forest fire. The rocky landscape seems like something out of Beckett. It’s visually powerful, as is the physical degradation of the doctors. It’s also interesting that one of the doctors is gay, and everybody knows it going in. And a bit of trivia: a small role is played by Jack Creley, an out Canadian actor who also was the voice of Thor in Marvel’s first superhero cartoons. Does that make Thor gay? That certainly would explain his Breck Girl golden tresses.
