Best not check out that other masterpiece of Italian Horror The Beyond by Lucio Fulci then! That makes even less sense but it is a fantastic Horror film and so unique. Argento's Tenebre is a little more linear if you want to give him another go. The roof tracking shot is brilliant.

Saw Amélie a few days ago for the first time in like eight years. It's a great movie, beautifully shot, and with some real cute script. It does however gives you false expectations on how great Paris is; it's more or less portrayed as a paradise. It's quite a boring, though beautiful, city, so prepare to be disappointed when going there after watching the movie.

El Topo -
****ing loved it, albeit it's a taste of it's own. Jodoworsky has this magic way of portraying a form if film, and never letting the viewer in on how serious he's being, or not being. Written entirely in symbols, yet unlike Holy Mountain, has a somewhat followable story in it's own way. A Spaghetti Western(or potentially parody of?) that serves as a fantastic little metephor for seeking moral self(or also potentially parody of?). Gruesome imagery, often sexually perverse. Very toned down compared to the even grander Jodoworsky classic 'Holy Mountain'(which isn't saying much), but gains a lot from it in terms of what little consistent motion this film has, which to scrutinize would be missing he point. It also has a scene were a cactus fruit is used to symbolize vaginal fingering and cunnilingus, and many other amazing things. Top rate movie for he art weirdo, like nothing else.

![]() ![]() I quite liked it, though was confused by David Bowie's presence. I was disturbed on multiple levels, likely moreso than with Eraserhead - because, I mean, I had two seasons to get attached to the characters, and certain scenes were just difficult to watch. I will never get the image of The Man From Somewhere Else eating creamed corn out of my head, also.

Hosted a double feature yesterday
![]() First we watched La Maschera Del Demonio, also known as Mask of Satan or Black Sunday. ![]() Supposedly, it is one of Tim Burton's favourites. It's about a witch and her undead helpers coming back from the dead to terrorize the family who put them in the grave to start with. The movie was pretty good, definetly entertaining with great sets and atmosphere. It was also pretty morbid for a movie from 1960 with some gross special FX and you can definetly see the heritage from this to later movies like those by Lucio Fulci who must have been very inspired when watching stuff like this (it's definetly an eye popper). It never quite managed to scare me, but I'd still recommend it to all who like horror, particularly those who enjoy italian flavours. I reckon Lee might like this if he hasn't seen it yet. Then we saw House on Haunted Hill from 1959 ![]() Which of course is a campy classic ![]() Recommended to fans of old horror films or ghost mysteries ![]()
