An absolute classic English horror series here from the master Nigel Kneale.

“Animals can be cuddly, friendly, faithful… but beasts are nightmarishly different…” This was how the TV Times heralded the arrival of Beasts, Nigel Kneale’s anthology of six plays – each focusing around a particular “creature” – produced by Nicholas Palmer for ATV in 1976. The warning was to be a timely one. Over the next six weeks, those in the audience brave enough to watch were treated to some classic Kneale horrors, and a lot else besides… To those lucky enough to see it first time around, the series still remains memorable, and, thanks to these DVDs Beasts is finding a whole new audience of fans today.Read More »

Quote:
In this artful film by 85-year old director Manoel de Oliveira, the heroine, instead of being powerless in the face of a world ruled by men, finds herself to be far too powerful. Beginning when she was a child, Ema (Leonor Silveira as an adult) had the kind of looks and manner that could stop cars when she came up to a street — or cause accidents. As time goes by, she explores her power over men and, as a mature woman, chooses to marry a man who has virtually no machismo so that she can continue having affairs and exploring this mysterious ability of hers. Eventually she seeks to transcend her unusual limitation and accomplishes her death with astonishing serenity. This haunting story is based on a novel by Agustina Bessa-Luis.Read More »

Start with Psycho, then throw in some raunchy footage Hitchcock could have never gotten away with in 1960. Private Parts is an excellent black comedy/horror film by cult director Paul Bartel (The Naughty Nurse, Death Race 2000). The main actress is pretty cute… an added bonus (and she gets naked!).Read More »

Les disparus de Rambouillet – 53 min
That’s the first episode I Watch from this old french TV series from the seventies. I don’t remind it when I was a kid. Well it’s not charmless, but it grew very old, if I explain it in the right way. A story of mystery, with much senseless and humor, a show for the whole family, kids, parents grand parents…I am sure to see all of them, but am not sure if I’ll comment them all. This episode is about disappearing folks in Rambouillet forest, near Paris. So a special squad from the police headquarters is in charge of those missing persons. What could I add more ? One little weird thing, in line of this TV series: the director – Claude Guillemot – himself went in the twilight zone – disappeared – during seventeen years, between 70 and 87, before a comeback. Where the hell did he go during all that time. In Rambouillet forest? by IMDB user GUENOT PHILIPPERead More »
