Today, May 1, 1973, Police Sergeant Neil Howie finds that he is unable to leave remote Hebridean island Summerisle. The island residents celebrate May Day with pagan rituals (The Wicker Man, 1973)
ALL YOU NEED IS DEATH is a folk horror movie of Atmosphere. If you expect everything presented/explained neatly, you may be frustrated- but there IS a logic here, of murder ballads & fairy tales. If you want a well crafted, creepy, unique film about the enigma & power of songs, you'll dig its vibe.
The #horror#podcast I guested on just dropped! It's a discussion about #FolkHorror / #UrbanWyrd & what defines it, and about how it often pushes up against #CosmicHorror. Give it a listen for a bunch of great film/book recs. You also get to hear my voice (VERY weird, for me)
My Internet/WiFi was supposed to be down all day but I am happy to report it is back up. Which is kind of pointless, since I'm planning on working on Art, but it IS nice to know it will be available while I'm Zoom-ing for the podcast I'll be on later today.
(Oh, yeah, I'm going to be a guest on a #podcast about #FolkHorror! It's being recorded today, but will be uploaded sometime soon.) @horror
