This week we have a look at the 1966 Hammer film DRACULA: PRINCE OF DARKNESS. This is Episode #460! Dracula: Prince of Darkness is a 1966 British gothic supernatural horror film directed by Terence Fisher. The film was produced by Hammer Film Productions, and is the third entry in Hammer's Dracula series, as well as the second to feature Christopher Lee as Count Dracula, the titular vampire. It also stars Andrew Keir, Francis Matthews, and Barbara Shelley.The film was photographed in Techniscope by Michael Reed, designed by Bernard Robinson and scored by James Bernard.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/castle-of-horror-podcast--4268760/support.
We're sticking with under-appreciated Hammer films this episode, and another from 1966 - “The Plague of the Zombies”. A film in which André Morell is such a badass, he stabs a man who is already on fire; the local constabulary are so obliging that they don't just turn a blind eye to grave robbing: they also help fill in the hole; and Servalan is feeling really rather tired. This was originally released as a double bill with “Dracula: Prince of Darkness”, and while the Count brought the box office clout, “The Plague of the Zombies” is definitely the more exciting and interesting film. Hammer's only foray into zombie territory wisely transplants the myth's Haitian origins to Cornwall, thus bringing in an element of British colonialism, which is then married to a comment on capitalist exploitation of the workers, making for a remarkably modern subtext. But the gothic visceral chills are there too, both supernatural and all too horribly human, with a standout dream sequence that really gives these zombies some evocative menace, that may have played into George A Romero's take on the monsters a mere two years later. Watch (or re-watch) to avoid spoilers and join us.
Die, Monster, Die! (1965), Necronomicon (1993), and Gods of the Deep (2023) While Stephen King may dominate when it comes to movie adaptations of his work—good or bad—one might expect that H.P. Lovecraft, given his immense impact on the literary world, would inspire just as many films. Yet, despite his influence, far fewer movies have been made from his stories than you'd think. Perhaps it's because Lovecraft's horror isn't about the details of what his characters see, but rather what those horrors do to them—often driving them into madness. And therein lies the beauty of his work. In this episode, we dive into three very different films, spanning three decades, each drawing from the strange and unsettling tales of this enigmatic author from Providence, Rhode Island. If you're not well-versed in Lovecraft's work, this is your chance to experience three adaptations—loose as they may be—that offer a glimpse into his nightmarish imagination. Films Mentioned in this Episode: Castle Freak (1995), Color Out of Space (2019), Creepshow (1982), The Crimson Blade (1963), Crying Freeman (1995), Demon Wind (1990), The Devil-Ship Pirates (1964), Die, Monster, Die! (1965), Dracula Prince of Darkness (1966), The Dunwich Horror (1970), The Evil Dead (1981), From Beyond (1986), Gamera, Guardian of the Universe (1995), Gods of the Deep (2023), Hatchet (2006), The Haunted Palace (1963), Humanoids from the Deep (1981), In the Mouth of Madness (1994), The Invisible Ray (1935), Killer Klowns from Outer Space (1988), Leprechaun (1993), Leprechaun 2 (1994), Leprechaun 4: In Space (1996), Leprechaun 5: In the Hood (2000), Leprechaun 6: Back 2 Tha Hood (2003), Lovecraft Country (2020), Lurking Fear (1994), Necronomicon (1993), Re-Animator (1985), Return of the Living Dead III (1993), The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1975), The Unnamable (1988), Vampyres (1974)
It's 17th February 1964 – You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin' by The Righteous Brothers is at number one in the UK. Sir Alec Douglas-Home is Prime Minister, Beatlemania has erupted in the United States, Southampton has been granted city status (can you tell this script was running short?), and the Channel Tunnel Agreement was signed, with an estimated completion time of five years (though it would actually take 30). Meanwhile, at the cinema, released as a double feature with The Curse of the Mummy's Tomb, is today's topic – The Gorgon. Anthony Nelson Keys, one of four filmmaking sons of comedian Nelson "Bunch" Keys, is well-known in this parish for a number of topics we've discussed before, including Quatermass and the Pit (Ep 34) and The Reptile (Ep 19). He joined Hammer in 1956 as an associate producer, later becoming a producer and occasional screenwriter. Keys also served as General Manager of Bray Studios in the 1960s and eventually co-founded Charlemagne Productions with Christopher Lee—or should that be production (singular)? As we know, they managed only one film together: Nothing but the Night (covered in Episode 42). Richard Pasco plays Paul Heitz. Late in his career, he starred as Tom Colley in The Watcher in the Woods, a favorite film from Ross's youth that we must cover one day. Before that, he played Cardinal Richelieu in the 1966 TV adaptation of The Three Musketeers and Dr. Boris Zargo in Rasputin: The Mad Monk. #BigChrisLee appears as Professor Karl Meister, while his best buddy Peter Cushing plays Dr. Namaroff. Despite popular belief that they always worked together, the pair hadn't shared the screen in four years before this production began. Barbara Shelley stars as Carla Hoffman. Born Barbara Teresa Kowin in 1932, Shelley appeared in over 100 films and TV series. She's celebrated for her roles in horror classics like Village of the Damned, Dracula: Prince of Darkness, Rasputin: The Mad Monk, and Quatermass and the Pit. For the role of the monster, former ballerina Prudence Hyman was cast, as the creature was intended to float gracefully, almost like a wraith. (Spoiler alert!) Shelley had hoped to play her character's Gorgon form herself for continuity and even suggested using a special wig with live green garden snakes for realism. Unfortunately, the idea was rejected due to budget and time constraints. After seeing the disappointing Gorgon effects in the final cut, Keys admitted to Shelley that her suggestion might have been the better choice. As #BigChrisLee quipped, “The only thing wrong with The Gorgon is the Gorgon!” Visually, this film is stunning, so let's give a shoutout to Michael Reed's cinematography and Bernard Robinson's production design. Michael Reed's CV includes Dracula: Prince of Darkness, On Her Majesty's Secret Service, and five episodes of CITVs Press Gang. Meanwhile, Bernard Robinson designed some of Hammer's greatest productions, spanning from the very first to the last of their classic horror films.

**For this History This Week special feature, Sally interviews director Robert Eggers about his new historically inspired film, Nosferatu.** Winter, 1476. Vlad III is a prince in Wallachia, in present-day Romania. He is a violent man, so violent that he earns the nickname "Vlad the Impaler." He also has another name that he inherited from his father: Dracula. Dracula is constantly fighting for his crown, but today, that fight will come to an end. His headless body will be discovered in a marsh, stuck down by his enemies. But his legend will live on. Dracula pops up in stories throughout Europe over the next few centuries, until author Bram Stoker decides to combine this legend with the latest fictional craze, vampires. His book, Dracula, becomes the king of the genre. It inspires numerous adaptations, including a silent film called Nosferatu. It's considered one of the most important horror movies in history. Over 100 years later, director Robert Eggers has reimagined the original Nosferatu and adapted it for a modern audience. In a conversation with Eggers, we asked, how did he make a blood-sucking monster feel like a historical figure? And where do vampires fit into our lives today? Special thanks to Robert Eggers, director of Nosferatu. We also used a great book to help research this episode, Dracula: Prince of Many Faces, by Radu Florescu and Raymond McNally.

This time, we listened to and read Ringing the Changes by Robert Aickman. Robert Fordyce Aickman was an English conservationist and writer. As a conservationist, he played a key role in preserving and restoring England's inland canal system. As a writer, he is best known for his supernatural fiction, which he described as "strange stories."On his mother's side, Aickman was the grandson of the prolific Victorian novelist Richard Marsh. Marsh is known for his occult thriller The Beetle, a book as popular in its time as Bram Stoker's Dracula. Aickman is best known for his 48 "strange stories," published across eight volumes.Podcast favorite Jeremy Dyson has adapted Aickman's work in various forms. Listen to episode 8 for our most in-depth look at Jeremy's work. A musical version of Aickman's short story The Same Dog, co-written by Dyson and Joby Talbot, premiered in 2000 at the Barbican Concert Hall.In 2000, Dyson, along with his League of Gentlemen collaborator Mark Gatiss, adapted Ringing the Changes into a BBC Radio Four play, airing exactly twenty years after the CBC adaptation. This adaptation was intended to start a tradition of 'An Aickman Story for Halloween,' but unfortunately, it did not continue. Dyson also directed a 2002 short film based on Aickman's story The Cicerones, with Gatiss as the principal actor.It is this Dyson/Gatiss adaptation that we listened to for this episode. (Thanks to ‘Mysterious Magpie' for putting this up on YouTube so we could listen to it)The cast includes George Baker as Gerald. Baker is known for his roles in The Dam Busters as Flight Lieutenant D. J. H. Maltby, Tiberius in I, Claudius, D.C.I. Wexford in The Ruth Rendell Mysteries, Decider Logrin in the Doctor Who story Full Circle, and appearances in two James Bond films. Fiona Allen plays Phrynne. Allen is an actress and writer known for 24 Hour Party People, Smack the Pony, and Poirot. She has been married to Michael Parkinson since April 2001. This surprised Ross when writing this until he discovered it wasn't ‘That' Michael Parkinson (see episode 18 of this podcast for more about him). Instead, it's the patronymic son of the chat show legend, whom she met while he was working as a location manager on Smack the Pony. Confused? I am! Friend of the show Mark Gatiss appears as the Narrator and Mr. Pascoe, the landlord. Commandant Shortcroft is played by Michael Cochrane, known for his role in 280 episodes of The Archers, Arnold (Private Godfrey) Ridley in We're Doomed! The Dad's Army Story, and for playing three different characters in three different episodes of Heartbeat.Barbara Shelley plays Mrs. Pascoe. Known to our podcast listeners for her portrayal of Barbara Judd in the Hammer version of Quatermass and the Pit (reviewed in episode 34), she also starred in The Village of the Damned (which we need to review soon), Dracula: Prince of Darkness (one of the Dracula films we still need to cover), Rasputin: The Mad Monk, The Gorgon, and the 1958 Hammer wannabe Blood of the Vampire, written by Jimmy Sangster. She also appeared in both Blake's 7 and Doctor Who— as I'm sure James is dying to know, we can tell you she played Sorasta in Planet of Fire and was considered for the role of Tanha in Snakedance… but that's enough Doctor Who for now… Get bonus content on PatreonSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/general-witchfinders.

“Please Hammer, don't hurt ‘em”. That line is from an M.C. Hammer song. I typed it because every Monday for HALLOWEEN HUMPFEST we are discussing a Hammer Films vampire classic and since that film company is called “Hammer” and then you got the musician “M.C. Hammer”, I just thought that would be an interesting thing to type but it's not. I'm sorry. It's grasping. Another thing I wish was grasping are these Vampire vixens at my penis after they've been turned. Nothing like the glow-up that vampirism provides courtesy of one of cinema's saddest ever fuckboys. Christopher Lee returns to the role of Dracula in Terence Fisher's “DRACULA: PRINCE OF DARKNESS” from 1966. Eight years since Lee last helmed the role and he does so with zero words and with intensely forlorn expressions. Not to be confused with the John Carpenter film “Prince of Darkness” that we discussed last week and is available to hear now. Great tips on how to resurrect vampire lords if you're ever needing to do so. We could all use a good Klove by our side.

Quatermass and the Pit (or as it's known in the US ‘Five Million Years to Earth') is a 1967 British science fiction horror film from Hammer Film Productions, a sequel to the earlier Hammer films The Quatermass Xperiment and Quatermass 2 (see General Witchfinders episode 17 for more details). Like its predecessors it is based on a BBC Television serial, of the same name, written by Podcast hero Nigel Kneale. It was directed by Roy Ward Baker (who is responsible for such highs as A Night to Remember And such lows and The scars of Dracula and The Legend of the 7 Golden Vampires - see episodes 28 and 31 respectively) And this incarnation stars Andrew Keir (featured in Cleopatra, Dracula: Prince of Darkness and Daleks' Invasion Earth 2150 A.D.) in the title role as Professor Bernard Quatermass, replacing Brian Donlevy, who played the role in the two earlier films. James Donald, Barbara Shelley (also in Dracula: Prince of Darkness and The Gorgon) and Julian Glover (whos been in some little known films called Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, The Empire strikes back, Games of thrones, several Doctor Who stories and load of other stuff including being the voice of a giant spider in Harry Potter) they appear in co-starring roles.Nigel Kneale wrote the first draft of the screenplay in 1961, but difficulties in attracting interest from American co-financiers meant the film did not go into production until 1967. The director, Roy Ward Baker, was chosen because of his experience with technically demanding productions such as A Night to Remember; this was the first of six films that he directed for Hammer. Andrew Keir, playing Quatermass, found making the film an unhappy experience, believing Baker had wanted Kenneth More to play the role. Owing to a lack of space, the film was shot at the MGM-British Studios in Elstree, Borehamwood, rather than Hammer's usual home at the time, which was the Associated British Studios, also in Elstree.The plot of the film verison was condensed to fit the shorter running time, the main casualty being the removal of a subplot involving a journalist named James Fullalove, and the climax was altered slightly to make it more cinematic. The setting for the pit was changed from a building site to the London Underground. The closing scene of the television version, in which Quatermass pleads with humanity to prevent Earth becoming the "second dead planet", was also dropped, in favour of a shot of Quatermass and Judd sitting alone amid the devastation wrought by the Martian spacecraft.The script was sent to John Trevelyan of the British Board of Film Censors in December 1966. Trevelyan replied that the film would require an X certificate and complained about the sound of the vibrations from the alien ship, the scenes of the Martian massacre, scenes of destruction and panic as the Martian influence takes hold and the image of the Devil.It has been suggested that Tobe Hooper's 1985 Lifeforce is largely a remake of Hammer's Quatermass and the Pit. In an interview, director Tobe Hooper discussed how Cannon Films gave him $25 million, free rein, and Colin Wilson's book The Space Vampires. Hooper then shares how giddy he was: "I thought I'd go back to my roots and make a 70mm Hammer film.Three decades on, Andrew Keir reprised the role of the Professor in "The Quatermass Memoirs", a five-part docudrama scripted by Nigel Kneale and transmitted on BBC Radio 3 in March 1996.

The importance of the movie poster is almost lost in this day and age. With the internet flooding social media with trailers, photos, and all sorts of advertisements, the poster art might get lost in the shuffle. But decades ago, it was the first thing used to promote an upcoming feature film. It had to reach out and grab hold of your eyes, telling your brain you need to see this film. Shortly after that, the poster collecting started. Why do we collect posters? What kinds are there? What is it about it that still holds a spell over movie goers? Join us and our special guest, Alan Tromp, as we try to answer all of those questions and more, as we discuss our own obsessions with movie posters, from one-sheets to British Quads to the French Grande size!

Scars of Dracula is a 1970 British horror film directed by Roy Ward Baker for Hammer Films.It stars Christopher Lee as Count Dracula, along with Dennis (i should be so good for you) Waterman, Jenny Hanley, Patrick Troughton, and Michael Gwynn. Although disparaged by some critics, the film does restore a few elements of Bram Stoker's original character: the Count is introduced as an "icily charming host;" he has command over nature; and he is seen scaling the walls of his castle. It also gives Lee more to do and say than any other Hammer Dracula film except its first, 1958's Dracula.This film breaks the continuity maintained through the previous entries in Hammer's Dracula film series: whereas at the end of the preceding film, Taste the Blood of Dracula, the Count met his end in a disused church near London, this film opens with a resurrection scene set in Dracula's castle in Transylvania, with no explanation of how his ashes got there. Furthermore, in Scars of Dracula, the Count has a servant named Klove, played by Patrick Troughton; in the third film of the series, Dracula: Prince of Darkness, Dracula has a servant named Klove (played by Philip Latham) who appears to be a different character, though identically named. The disruption of continuity caused by Scars of Dracula reflects the fact the film was originally tooled as a possible reboot of the series in the event Christopher Lee elected not to reprise the role of Dracula, and, as Listener Christopher pointed out was intended for John Forbes-Robertson, who later played Dracula in The Legend of the 7 Golden Vampires.Peter Cushing was asked to appear in this movie, however due to conflicting schedules, he reluctantly declined the major role written for him. He was able to carry out a dare set by his good friend Christopher Lee. Due to a hold up in production in filming of "Scream and Scream Again", Peter was able to spend a day on set filming a brief cameo as a milkmaid for the opening village Inn scene.Dracula's resurrection at the beginning of the film is the same footage as Dracula's death from Taste the Blood of Dracula, but simply played in reverse.$£$£$£$£$£$£$£$£$£$£$£$£$£$£$£$£$£$£$ Just in case anyone has too much money and wants to give a bit to us to help with our hosting n stuff.

Dziś mija setna rocznica urodzin jednego z najbardziej ikonicznych aktorów w historii kina, czyli Christophera Lee. Pośród setek jego aktorskich ról znajdziemy wiele pamiętnych kreacji, ale niewiele z nich może konkurować z jego wersją Draculi, która na stałe zapisała się w kanonie kina grozy i przeniknęła do popkulturowej świadomości, stając się jednym z synonimów słynnego wampira. Przy okazji urodzin Lee spotkali się w naszym wirtualnym studio Marta Płaza z Final Girls, która niedawno miała okazję prowadzić prelekcję przed kinowym pokazem „Draculi” z 1958 roku oraz Jerry, aby porozmawiać o tym jak przez lata ewoluowała seria produkowana przez kultową wytwórnię Hammer. Rozsiądźcie się zatem wygodnie i posłuchajcie o kontekstach, niuansach i rozwoju serii o najsłynniejszym wampirze w historii horroru. Polecamy! W skład dyskutowanej serii wytwórni Hammer wchodzą następujące filmy: Dracula (Horror of Dracula – 1958) Narzeczona Draculi (The Brides of Dracula – 1960) Dracula: Książę Ciemności (Dracula: Prince of Darkness – 1966) Powrót Draculi (Dracula has Risen from the Grave – 1968) Skosztuj krwi Draculi (Taste the Blood of Dracula – 1970) Ukąszenie Draculi (Scars of Dracula – 1970) Dracula A.D. 1972 (1972) Szatański plan Draculi (The Satanic Rites of Dracula – 1973) Przesłuchaj w Konglomeracie: https://konglomeratpodcastowy.pl/konglomerat-podcastowy/dracula-seria-wytworni-hammer/ Posłuchaj nas na YouTube: https://youtu.be/cG6hD1LHvkk Nasz Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/konglomeratpodcastowy/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/konglomeratpodcastowy/

In this very special jaunt through Hammerland, Ian and Aaron celebrate a couple of birthdays while admiring the scenery of Dracula Has Risen from the Grave!Freddie Francis' 1968 sequel to Dracula: Prince of Darkness is a different kind of Hammer film than the guys have seen so far. Focusing less on horror atmosphere and traditional ghouls-versus-good-guys action, Risen is more like a really compelling soap opera that happens to have vampires in it.Our intrepid hosts explore this new direction for the Dracula films, and raise a lot of questions about lore, continuity, and how the material might evolve if...ahem...resurrected today!"Hammerland" is our monthly look at the 1950s-1970s Hammer Studios horror films featuring Dracula and Frankenstein.Show Links:Watch the Dracula Has Risen from the Grave trailer.Keep up with all of Aaron's reviews at Horror 101 with Dr. AC.Dying for more?

Their arrival sets the stage for Dracula's return, and a series of stalk-and-slash encounters that may have you thinking more about Friday the 13th than Fright Night.Ian and Aaron talk about the film's possible influences; the magnificence of Andrew Keir as a substitute for Peter Cushing; and the film's absolutely bonkers take on vampire lore!"Hammerland" is our monthly look at the 1950s-1970s Hammer Studios horror films featuring Dracula and Frankenstein.Show Links:Watch the Dracula: Prince of Darkness trailer.Keep up with all of Aaron's reviews at Horror 101 with Dr. AC.Dying for more?

If you're having trouble finding love, why not try witchcraft? What could possibly go wrong? In this week's film, our main character Elaine uses witchcraft to try and find true love, leaving a trail of broken marriages and dead bodies across a small California town. This is the second of our Pastiche films for April, a horror/tragedy/comedy that is a beautiful recreation of the Technicolor films of the late 60s. Drawing inspiration from Hitchcock's The Birds, Hammer's Dracula Prince of Darkness, and Romero's Season of the Witch, this film takes the style, and tropes of these films to tell a modern story of love, witchcraft, and murder. Join host Wyndham Jennings for another talk about film you haven't heard of, because who knows, it might wind up being your new favorite. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/celluloidfeverdreams/support

This week on Hammer Pub, your hosts will still be sitting down with yet another marvelous Hammer horror film while having a few drinks and providing a running commentary on a gothic horror classic. This week, they’re joined by…wait. Hang on a sec. There aren’t any guests this week! During this week’s discussion, Paul and Jinx find themselves shrinking away from the steely gaze of Rasputin, the Mad Monk!

Anderson. Once the film begins, the guys discuss their overall feelings on the film, the true life character and events which inspired it, Christopher Lee’s marvelous performance, the recycled sets from Dracula: Prince of Darkness, and the film’s surprising raciness.

Some have called it "The Studio that Dripped Blood," and for good reason; Hammer Films was one of the most prolific horror production companies of all time and its legacy has permeated many forms of media, whether acknowledged or not. Founded by William Hinds and James Carreras, Hammer Film Productions, Ltd. was initially in the business of "quota quickies," which were cheap and uninspired filler films. After being presented with a film project to rejuvenate the Frankenstein brand, the studio opted to make their own, since Mary Shelly's work was already in the public domain. With The Curse of Frankenstein (1957), the film company rebranded to almost exclusively guts and gore forevermore. Their next foray was Dracula (1958), which also starred Christopher Lee as the monster. In The Revenge of Frankenstein (1958), rather than the monster reappearing as he had in the many Universal Monster films, it was Dr. Frankenstein. The Evil of Frankenstein (1964) had Peter Cushing return to his mad scientist. Frankenstein Created Woman (1967) was odd and bad, but worth seeing. Frankenstein Must be Destroyed (1969) had some high points. Frankenstein and the Monster from Hell (1974) featured some adept makeup and effect work. Christopher Lee played yet another monster, which was also played by the prolific Boris Karloff, the titular mummy in The Mummy (1959). The Brides of Dracula (1960) was a well received blend of sex and violence. The Curse of the Werewolf (1961) was sadly the studio's only werewolf film. The Phantom of the Opera (1962) was somewhat cursed from the outset, having originally been conceived for Cary Grant before he backed out. Delving into more mythic subject matter, The Gorgon (1964) had some fun practical effects for Medusa and her serpent hair. Dracula: Prince of Darkness (1966), Dracula Has Risen from the Grave (1968), Taste the Blood of Dracula (1970), Scars of Dracula (1970), The Vampire Lovers (1970), Dracula AD 1972 (1972), and The Satanic Rites of Dracula (1973). The Plague of the Zombies (1966) has some charm. The Reptile (1966) was a schlocky, but well made, creature feature. The Mummy's Shroud (1967) Dr. Jekyll and Sister Hyde (1971) was arguably before its time, touching on gender norms. This week's "Hidden Track" is Silent Horror.

Like the film we talk about in this episode, WE'RE BACK after a gap of 8 years. Christopher Lee is also back in the role that made him famous, Dracula Prince of Darkness. Lets see what he has to say after all the time away. Will Peter Cushing be back or will they give his role to kick ass monk? Come with us to Castle Dracula! Quick note about the audio: the room we normally record in has been redecorated and has lost some of the soft furnishings. Therefore the audio is slightly echoey.

In the last episode we heard of Dracula's rise to power in Wallachia and how in 1459 he refused to pay tribute to the Ottoman's. His failure to do so forced Sultan Mehmed II to raise a huge army to march on Wallachia. Dracula had prepared Wallachia for such a fight. Not only did he order the construction or repair of border castles, and hire mercenaries for the army, but he also prepared his people for war. He moved his official residence south to the strong citadel of Bucharest to be closer to the border. Dur: 28mins File: .mp3
In December 1476, two monks from the monastery of Snagov, about forty kilometers north of Bucharest, stumbled upon a bloody, mangled, headless corpse. Recognizing the clothing, the monks secretly interred the body in the monastery's crypt. The head, meanwhile, made its way to Constantinople where it was put on display. The body belonged to the newly returned prince, Vlad, who was at the time known as 'the Impaler', but history knows him by a different name - Dracula. Dur: 39mins File: .mp3

A professional cat impressionist with an outdated sense of dress, a medically recognised allergy to sunlight and a desperate need for some dental work is unfairly victimised by a bunch of squatters who've quite clearly mistaken his stately home for the Three Bears cottage (they sit in his chairs, eat his food and sleep in his beds). It's obviously not a fairytale though because after barging into the poor man's home and helping themselves to all his stuff, they creep into his bedroom to do who knows what and he's forced to defend himself. When Reservoir Priest turns up on the side of the squatters though, it just gets nasty. Victimisation by the church of lonely, disabled social outcasts and upper class English tourists behaving like common criminals… Honestly, what is the world coming to?
