How Wonderful!


I only have excellent ideas
I fell off tuning in but every time I did it was a lot of fun. I think a folk horror month would be neat-- I've had to watch a lot of it lately for work stuff and a lot of them are really beautiful and serene on top of being spooky.

ooh that sounds cool, any recommendations (including stuff that can't be shown on movie night because it's not on youtube or whatever, I at least am independently interested) would be appreciated!

Three of my all-time favorite movies are Penda's Fen, a little BBC tv-movie from the 70s about a little repressed gay kid who learns not to be awful through the intercession of terrifying pagan visions, A Field in England, a very scary and intense movie about three guys in the 17th century getting high in a meadow, and Eyes of Fire, a very low budget movie about Puritans getting owned outside.

There's a really really super good documentary called Woodlands Dark and Days Bewitched from a few years ago that has a HUGE bibliography-- I'm still working through it and having a great time. In particular it shines a light on a lot of international examples of a genre people often reflexively associate with the UK (eg. stuff like The Wicker Man or Whistle and I'll Come To You).
