In El Salvador, thousands of innocent people have been locked up in Nayib Bukele's crackdown on gangs. They have been held without due process for years. But family members are standing up. And on May 1 they march, carrying the pictures and the names of their innocent loved ones detained and held without rights, with the ever-increasing support of the United States.This is episode 26 of Stories of Resistance — a podcast co-produced by The Real News and Global Exchange.

We blikken terug op de programma's van afgelopen seizoen met De Balie Podcast. Deze keer: Een avond vol horror met Koolhoven. Of je deze zomer onderweg bent in de auto, op de camping staat of aan het strand ligt, De Balie is dichtbij. Met elke week twee programma's om te luisteren.Kwijlende wezens, geesten en afgehakte ledematen vullen bioscoopzalen. We kijken enge films, vertellen spookverhalen en verkleden ons als monsters al vanaf onze kindertijd. Hoe heeft de horrorfilm zich door de jaren heen ontwikkeld? En wat is de invloed van nieuwe vrouwelijke makers op het genre? Regisseur Martin Koolhoven gaat samen met nieuwe makers en experts in gesprek over horror.Horror is nu populairder dan ooit en heeft een steeds sterkere stem in de sociale en politieke arena. Films als Get Out en Under The Shadow gebruiken onze collectieve angsten om thema's van onrechtvaardigheid en ongelijkheid op een toegankelijke manier aan te kaarten. De opkomst van vrouwelijke makers brengt een nieuw perspectief met zich mee waarbij de conservatieve regels van het genre gebroken worden. Wat betekent dit voor horror?Terwijl de horrorfilm wereldwijd uitgroeit tot een miljardenindustrie, blijft het genre in Nederland relatief onderbelicht. Jonge Nederlandse makers en horror-fanaten willen daar verandering in brengen. Tijdens deze avond gaat Koolhoven met hen in gesprek. Ook kijken we diverse filmfragmenten, variërend van klassieke tot moderne horrorfilms.Zie het privacybeleid op https://art19.com/privacy en de privacyverklaring van Californië op https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.Zie het privacybeleid op https://art19.com/privacy en de privacyverklaring van Californië op https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
In the late 1980s, British film director Alex Cox spent several months in Nicaragua filming his movie Walker, about the U.S. filibuster who invaded and took over the country in the mid-1800s.As Cox puts it, he was trying to make “a revolutionary film in a revolutionary context." That did not go over well in Hollywood. The movie would get him blacklisted. Even today, you still can't find the movie streaming.In this bonus episode for Under the Shadow, host Michael Fox speaks with Cox about his 1987 movie Walker and his filming of the movie in Nicaragua in the 1980s. They also look at U.S. intervention and the film industry.Under the Shadow is an investigative narrative podcast series that walks back in time, telling the story of the past by visiting momentous places in the present. In each episode, host Michael Fox takes us to a location where something historic happened — a landmark of revolutionary struggle or foreign intervention. Today, it might look like a random street corner, a church, a mall, a monument, or a museum. But every place he takes us was once the site of history-making events that shook countries, impacted lives, and left deep marks on the world.Hosted by Latin America-based journalist Michael Fox.This podcast is produced in partnership between The Real News Network and NACLA.Guests: Alex Cox You can listen to the first episode of Michael Fox's new podcast, Panamerican Dispatch, here.Follow and support him and Under the Shadow, at https://www.patreon.com/mfoxTheme music by Monte Perdido and Michael Fox.

A New York court has found former Honduran president Juan Orlando Hernández guilty of drug trafficking and weapons possession. It's a huge verdict that will likely see the former president imprisoned for life.In the last episode of Under The Shadow, host Michael Fox looked deeply at Hernández's time as president from 2014 to 2022, which many came to call a narco-dictatorship. He won office in a fraudulent election, consolidated unprecedented power, pushed a neoliberal sell-off, and carried out widespread human rights abuses. In this Update 3, Fox looks at the New York trial that convicted him. What went down, what it meant, and what it means going forward for Honduras. And most important, what was missing — namely the role of the United States and Canada in propping up the Hernández regime.For this update, we speak with Karen Spring, the co-coordinator of the Honduras Solidarity Network and host of the Honduras Now podcast.

History is horror. Greedy men fight for land, for power. Those who step out of line are often executed. War robs children of their parents. Freedom loses to fascism. What can we do to persevere? What use is our religion but as a tool of our oppressors? Can we fight totalitarianism with disobedience? Can even our fairy tales find light in the darkest of times? The Cadaver Dogs dive into some of their favorite flicks! First is Academy Award winner Guillermo Del Toro's dark fantasy, PAN'S LABYRINTH (2006), mistranslated from the original title, “El Laberinto Del Fauno” or “The Labyrinth of the Faun”. Set in Franco's Spain, a dictatorship which emerged after the Spanish Civil War, Ofelia explores a magical gateway in hopes of escaping her reality to a better plane. We then jump forward to the Iranian Revolution and the Iran-Iraq War in UNDER THE SHADOW (2016), a BAFTA winning film from director Babak Anvari. Here the ghostly djinn are as malicious as the bombs and missiles dropping on Tehran, as themes of motherhood and feminism emerge to the front line. We'll highlight these concepts and discuss both movies' use of symbolism and metaphor, as well as provide some useful historical context. Which is stronger: harsh reality or gorgeous fantasy? “Francisco Franco and the Spanish Civil War,” by Khan Academy youtu.be/TYke_R9_ar8 “Why Iranian women are posting pictures of their uncovered hair,” by Vox youtu.be/PNdwFftpndM “March 8, 1979 Iranian Women March Against Hijab and Islamic Laws,” by Arjang Sepasi (translation of report on Women's March) youtu.be/pxGYLk92edY Up Next: ANTICHRIST (2009) / THE SCREWFLY SOLUTION (2005) Follow us at: instagram.com/cadaverdogspod twitter.com/cadaverdogspod facebook.com/cadaverdogspod Send us your film suggestions at: cadaverdogspodcast@gmail.com Cover art by Omri Kadim.

Mother, Author, Researcher ‘What is happening behind the curtain?' The UN Agendas, the World Economic Forum - Your Future? Giving a wider understanding of the issues facing us today, both in NZ and globally. Worth your while to listen to the whole interview. Author of ‘We are Revolting' and her new book just out ‘Under the Shadow', Antoinette lays the groundwork of her research as to what is happening on a global scale. She says she is a big picture person. The fact that over the years, our NZ Governments, both left and right have signed us on to the United Nations Agenda21 and Agenda23 that have slipped through without there being a public discourse or debate and education of ‘we the people' as to what does this all translate into. Why the silence and why have our elected representatives not mentioned this to their constituents? Especially as this all started back in 1992. Then there is the question of what's the game plan being acted out under cover of the Covid crisis? Where and where does the World Economic Forum from Davos in Switzerland put the ‘Great Reset' in place. Where the cashless society comes into being, that by 2030 ‘we will own nothing and we will be happy' - how about - full of Joy! Note, that both our Prime Minister and our Deputy Prime Minister have attended the World Economic Forum in Switzerland. Yet a quietened NZ MSM, ‘soothed with ample funding' from our Government discreetly looks the other way. This is what happened - the Fourth Estate (your Media) have remained silent and tight lipped. www.AntoinetteJames.com With a new book just out: UNDER THE SHADOW: Agenda 21 in New Zealand New Zealand National and Labour governments have collaborated in binding the country to UN goals. National Prime Minister Jim Bolger signed Agenda 21 in 1992, without democratic debate! Labour Prime Minister Helen Clark rolled-out NCEA underpinned with UN Common Core Curriculum goals in the early 2000s, without democratic debate! National Prime Minister John Key signed Agenda 2030 in 2015, without democratic debate! Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern authored New Zealand's first Voluntary National Review 2019: An audit of the country's progress and commitment to UN 2030 dictatorship, without democratic debate! Every New Zealander's life is going to change for the worse. UNDER THE SHADOW is a 314-page exposé of Agenda 21/2030 outcomes and projections in New Zealand. This publication has over 300 quotes and citations from many documents, publications, speeches and statements. Under the Shadow gives the Agenda backstory, names the architects, explains the ideology and exposes the elites main driving force. Copies of UNDER THE SHADOW can be purchased on AMAZON or for New Zealand postal addresses, directly from the author - $35 plus P&P Having presented this info at many public meetings last year, I found the tree metaphor became an easy way to untangle while putting a handle on the very historic and complicated UN tiptoe to Agenda 2030.

I am a "big picture" commentator. Understanding the big picture makes it easier to understand the incremental steps by our gov and councils to ultimate end-game of communism that will best be described as a 'technocratic oligarchical scientific dictatorship'. Antoinette has also written another book in 2019 called WE ARE REVOLTING: ‘A Red Pill Read' Paperback – January 4, 2019 · Kindle $14.99 Read with Our Free App · Paperback $35.26. Antoinette states that in 2019 the Prime Minister of NZ wrote NZ's First Voluntary National Review to the United Nations - which is basically an audit of NZ and saying to the UN bosses where we are at, as a country. She says that it has all the basic feel good language - but behind that are ‘word definitions' - and that there is a lot of word trickery going on. Shared Responsibility and Public Private - what do these words really mean? That key words are frequently placed in this Agenda's schedule - words that give us the ‘feel good vibe' such as ‘wellbeing' and the question is posited what does the word ‘wellbeing' translate to for the elite at the top of the UN, plus bankers and movers and shakers? What does ‘wellbeing' mean to the elite at the top of the pyramid of power? Have a listen - because what Antoinette says is very important for us all to take in. From Tims point of view as the interviewer - I did not want to get in and argue points - I was instead offering a platform that is based on Freedom of Expression - and I know that we are being limited as time passes. Whereas as Antionette says, as a Christian that we need to be taking care of human life. That we are sacred beings - (Tim believes we are souls inhabiting bodies - (see his previous interviews about souls and near death and out of the body experiences.) Note that in most cases Atheists refuse to debate this). Antoinette states that we are in the decade of eco restoration and that is a very good thing in Tims estimation - however it's all about how the top of the ‘pyramid of power' is going about doing this. So this is a very important point to understand - we need both - but how the Agenda's are being promulgated is that the Governments are making no effort to educate the public. There is no use of the Fourth Estate to educate humanity of what is the issue and what is at stake here. There is a balance … we have to take in the precautionary principle in situations - like the non growing of Genetically Engineered food in NZ - But, when it comes to Covid the authorities are not following this themselves. Because in NZ for example, the Pfizer injection has not been passed as safe by the FDA and that it is still in an ‘experimental phase' as per Med Safe here in NZ. so there is a huge in-congruence with how our elected servants are governing us - some will say ‘ruling us'. The current Government's understanding of Agenda21 according to Antoinette is that their adherence to Agenda21 is to the restoration of the environment as it was before man walked on our planet. This is seen as going too far - too fast - especially with 7.8 billion beings that need water, feeding, housing, health and education - etc. Antoinette mentions Rosa Koire on NZer Vinny Eastwoods show. link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5MPKl1yskKs In this interview Antoinette also mentions: Bill and Melinda Gates - at the Goal Keepers Conference 2019 - where our Prime Minister commits NZ to the Agenda21 Goals. That at present NZ is now locking away significant natural areas … But, this is not being done with open transparent, local, and district participation of the land owners and the farming or agricultural community. It is being imposed. This interview talks about top down control coming across NZ's rural sector - South Waikato for instance has been given a plan to control its water - (and we need plans to clean up our water) - however rural people are not being kept in the loop and the authorities are forcing the issue by initiating local bylaws etc without having open discussions with the locals. This is coming from the top down. This is not localised democracy. Antoinette - stresses that Local Government is not doing the work around having meetings with local rural residents or local town hall meetings and giving people a heads up on what it would like to do or what is actually going on. It all appears to - being put in place and that everyone in the community just has to comply. Like - it's being forced upon the people. The rural sector is about to be managed … where previously in a localised community district or region - ‘we the people' governed ourselves by democratic principles. However this does not appear to be happening. What we hear in this interview is that we are being ‘Ruled by an elite' - that sees us in many ways as useless eaters and that we do not have a soul … this is why management of the future is being set up - because in many ways we as a society have not been alert and have let our local democratic system deteriorate, by not voting - to such a degree that ‘others' have stepped in and in many ways subtly hijacked the process. This Interview includes: The Fabian Society and the connection to the Royal Society … Article 61 and the Nuremberg code He Whakaputanga. The flying of the 1835 Flag, when 34 Maori Chiefs came together to re-emphasise that they were independent. Antoinette says she raises this flag at her home. This interview covers a vast number of issues that have not been given any coverage or discourse in NZ. Once we in this country were very keen on participating in our young democracy. However, you can see how the voter turnout at local government elections has fallen dramatically over the last 50 years and it is at this level that change is being forced upon us, because there are fewer checks and balances. Antoinette as a mother and someone who has witnessed the decline in all areas of family, education, health and community life over the decades has decided to make a stand. She has to be acknowledged and empowered for standing up to a system that has lost its way and or been infiltrated. Well worth grappling with the subject matter she brings to us all. Because we are in the grips of and irregular warfare. Mentioned in this interview is the link between 5G and Covid. https://www.rfglobalnet.com/doc/fixed-wireless-communications-at-60ghz-unique-0001 https://transition.fcc.gov/Bureaus/Engineering_Technology/Documents/bulletins/oet70/oet70a.pdf Also, that there is in place a new Nuremberg Trial coming due to the unlawful acts of Government and Health officials around Covid. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sJXCG3tXwj4 Dr Reiner Fuellmich https://reesereport.com/ - 4 minute videos to get the point across. There is an axiom that states - The means justifies the ends, not the ends justifies the means. You will find that both Facists and Communists will go with ‘the ends justifying the end' - whilst those who believe in virtue and principled morality - will always go with - ‘the means justifying the end.' https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ZC0NOljRWQ&t=282s Vox 2014 Police State Contagion: NOTES: Tim mentions that in 1992 at the Rio UN Conference in Brazil, that 192 Nations signed up to Agenda 21 - Under the auspices of George Herbert Bush - who as the Head of the CIA spent 12 years in the Whitehouse - 8 years as Vice President and 4 years as President.

Don't let the PG-13 rating fool you. Today's film is absolutely terrifying.We round the corner for the home stretch on this phase of #inthemourning and its sub-series #remnant with our penultimate episode on one of the very, very few Persian horror films: UNDER THE SHADOW. We also take one brief detour into episodes 7 and 8 or HBO's THE LEFTOVERS Season 1 before wrestling down the nightmarish vision of a mother and her daughter terrorized by a malevolent spirit in 1980s war-torn Tehran. It's a powerfully affecting film which yields some propulsive discussion around what it might mean for us to haunt the land where we live rather than it haunting us.it's an exciting and very fun conversation this week and we hope you enjoy it.5:00 - Business Section (LISTENER CALLS TO ACTION!)12:03 - #tvguideposts - THE LEFTOVERS, Season 1, Episodes 7 & 837:21 - UNDER THE SHADOW-All the FoGgy links-On the webFacebookTwitterInstagramReed on TwitterNathan on TwitterMerchandise available hereYouTube

Hi everyone! We are legally obligated to welcome back Shane Hyde to the podcast, a condition of the One Movie Punch Secret Volcano Lair Accords signed last year in the wake of Reign of Terror 2019. If you want the full details, be sure to check out last year’s month-long event, beginning with One Movie Spouse’s review for CAN YOU EVER FORGIVE ME? (Episode #594), and continuing all through October 2019. A month worth of Shane’s sultry voice, and secret machinations. He’ll be up for a Hulu Original film, at least in the United States, and apparently Netflix everywhere else. Strange times we live in! Before the review, we’ll have a promo from our friends at the Pop Pour Review podcast! Every week, the PPR crew review a film, then craft a cocktail based on the movie. I don’t drink myself, but I know a few people that do, and every recipe fits in surprising ways. You can find them on Twitter and Instagram @poppourreview, or by searching for Pop! Pour! Review Podcast on Facebook. Thanks for all your support last year! Subscribe to stay current with the latest releases. Contribute at Patreon for exclusive content. Connect with us over social media to continue the conversation. Here we go! ///// > ///// Kia ora! I’m Shane Hyde, a Kiwi living in Australia. Everything down here is currently on fire, so I’m staying inside and reviewing movies. Today I’m reviewing 2019’s WOUNDS. Let’s go. Today’s movie is WOUNDS(2019), directed and written for the screen by Babak Anvari. This movie stars Armie Hammer, Zazie Beetz, Karl Glusman, Christine Rankins, all putting in great turns with regards to the acting. First up, WOUNDS is the story of Will (Armie Hammer), he’s a barkeep on the late shift, who breaks up a fight, finds a cellphone, and then finds things starting to spiral out of control. No spoilers! No spoilers! You’re the spoilers! I gotta admit my joyous surprise with WOUNDS. As I feel it's not the film it advertises itself as. In the first act, it feels a bit like standard fare, you know, a number of relationships and conflicts (shall we say 'wounds'?). These are established, dominos set in place, and then the finding of a lost cellphone that sets everything off - and what a crazy ride WOUNDS is to its endings, both literal and figurative. WOUNDS is based on a novel The Visible Filth by Nathan Ballingrud. WOUNDS has a similar world-building feel to RESOLUTION or THE ENDLESS (Episode #273). As our protagonist Will investigates the lost cellphone, we see and feel The True World unfold around him in unanticipated and unexpected ways. And I gotta try real hard NOT to spoil stuff here, because our protagonist was living a shallow and selfish life, but as he dives deeper into his entanglements, he becomes unstrung, and we feel that confusion along with him, such is the world building. Director Babak Anvari rose to prominence with an Iranian horror film: UNDER THE SHADOW (2016). Now, that was a chilling and complex horror story set in war-torn Tehran in the 1980s. WOUNDS is an impressive successor to that. It’s low budget but filled with talent in front of and behind the camera. Both films mark Babak Anvari as a 'director of choice' - somebody whose career I'll be following with some joy and anticipation. And in this, there are echoes of Koji Shiraishi's NOROI: THE CURSE (2005). We are as lost as our protagonist as he tries to get to the bottom of things. His understanding only coming when he eventually gives in to everything that he's struggled against. And for all of this, WOUNDS avoids a lot of the tropes that you might expect. WOUNDS touts itself as a psychological horror, and for three quarters of the film that's about right. For the last quarter... well, I’ll leave you to make up your own mind about that one. WOUNDS is the rug pulled out from under your feet. Existential nightmare dressed as psychological thriller. Rotten Tomatoes: 53% Metacritic: 51 One Movie Punch: 8.0/10 WOUNDS (2019) is rated R and is currently playing on Netflix.

2016 In Horror Cinema Greetings new yearlings, and welcome back to Horror Business, the podcast that will surely be one of the few things in the likely radioactive wasteland that will be 2017 to be bring you joy. This episode we look back on 2016 and what we liked and disliked about the state of horror cinema and weirdly enough it looks like horror movies were the one thing from 2016 that weren’t horrible! We begin as always by talking about some of the recent horror films we’ve seen. While technically not a horror movie, we were lucky enough to catch Shin Godzilla. We discuss some of the more horrific aspects the franchise, what makes the new one stand out from the prior entries in the franchise, and Godzilla’s increasing amounts of screen time despite claims to the contrary. We move on to Evolution, a movie that Liam enjoyed but Justin was confused by. But it’s okay because Liam is soon confused by Justin’s comparison of Evolution to not understanding Primus! Justin successfully argues that Liam has actual taste in film while he himself does not and then rambles about the size of his Criterion collection. We briefly talk about catching a screening of The Autopsy Of Jane Doe in New York City with a Q & A featuring Brian Cox, Emile Hirsch, and director Andre Ovredal. Justin discusses his viewing of Rob Zombie’s 31 and the tragedy that is Rob Zombie’s inability to make good movies despite his rich pedigree and Richard Brake’s standout performance in the film. Liam briefly talks about his viewing of the Syfy series Channel Zero. Next we talk about how we were fortunate enough to be on a couple episodes of friend of the podcast Andrew Bergeron of Vincent Price’s Laugh other podcast What Did We Just Watch? to talk about Mulholland Drive and Moon. There is a brief derailment as Justin is egged into talking about his fear and hatred of the 1992 alien abduction film Fire In The Sky before we get back on track to talk about Andrew’s podcast and how it’s so organized and focused that it makes us look like a mess. We love you Andrew, but you have shamed us! Liam briefly talks about the films Always Shine, Under The Shadow, and The Monster. Justin talks about the 2014 film Black Mountainside, and how while it is a heavy handed tribute to John Carpenter’s The Thing nonetheless it was an enjoyable film that stands on it’s own.

This week on the MashReads Podcast, we read and discuss Donna Tartt's Pulitzer Prize winning novel The Goldfinch. The Goldfinch starts with a boy named Theo as he experiences a terrorist attack at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. The attack kills his mother, and in the confusing aftermath of the attack, Theo accidentally steals a painting called 'The Goldfinch' from the museum. From there, we follow Theo as he grows up, traveling from New York to Vegas and back to New York, all the while dealing with the grief of his mother's death and the anxiety of possessing a stolen and wanted painting. Join us as we talk about writing about art, the difference between character and caricature and what Donna Tartt got right (and wrong) when writing about relationships in The Goldfinch. Then, inspired by The Goldfinch we talk about our favorite non-YA coming of age stories including Jane Eyre by Charlotte Brontë, The Magicians by Lev Grossman and The First Bad Man by Miranda July. And as always, we end the show with recommendations. Aliza recommends the Netflix adaptation of The Magicians. "Even at the points where I feel complicated about it, I like how it makes me think." She also recommends Everything I Never Told You by Celeste Ng. Peter recommends the Iranian horror movie Under The Shadow. "It was just a very effecting and very moving movie." MJ recommends Homegoing by Yaa Gyasi. "When I finished reading this book, I immediately wanted to go re-read it again."

Directed by Joel Potrykus (Buzzard) and starring Ty Hickson & Amari Cheatom, it's a strange, creepy & darkly humorous take on the occult, and shows once again why it's a bad idea to mess around with evil in the woods.

The first half of the Melbourne International Film Festival has flown by, and I've already seen some great films like Cosmos, Paterson and The Happiest Day in the Life of Olli Mäki. Among the films I've seen, though, there's been a fantastic selection of horror films, and I thought I'd spotlight four of them: three narrative features, all by first-time filmmakers, and a documentary. First up, The Eyes of My Mother. An American film, but with occasional Portuguese dialogue, it's one of the first films I got to see and it's still stayed with me. One day, a little girl witnesses some terrible violence in her home; an intruder shows up but is subsequently overpowered, and from that moment that violence seeps through to her brain as she grows up and her life spirals into chilling psychopathic behaviour. Shot in black-and-white, there's a wistful, melancholy, poetic tone enshrouding the on-screen horror. With echoes of The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, the film delves into some very dark places, both explicit and not. But despite the disturbing and violent developments the film manages to retain a beautiful, almost meditative atmosphere, and our sympathy for the central character never leaves even though she's doing awful, awful things. I mean, all she wants is a family... in a way...A very promising debut by filmmaker Nicolas Pesce. Maybe hug a loved one after this. Next up, there's Baskin. Another highly disturbing horror film, this time from Turkey, written and directed by Can Evrenol. A group of police officers receive a distress call in a remote building and head over to investigate. Once there they discover some truly hellish stuff. The film's got lots of graphic gore and screaming, with a shudderingly creepy main villain. The visuals are striking and colourful and the score is particularly vivid. Unfortunately, there's not much of anything else. The pacing is uneven and I didn't really find myself being invested in any of the characters, so despite several really interesting and horrifying sequences it all in all made for unengaging viewing. Some great ideas in this, but not entirely well-executed. Moving slightly east again we have Under the Shadow, by Babak Anvari, set in Iran in the 1980s, after the Iranian revolution and during the Iran-Iraq conflicts. It centres on a woman and her husband and young daughter living in an apartment block in Tehran. Not only is there the constant threat of missile attacks but some strange, nightmarish things start to occur, and when the father is called away to military service the mother and daughter are left to deal with the supernatural dread that plagues them. Under the Shadow does a fantastic job of channeling serious political and parental fears into a deliciously slow-burning terror, the tension building and building, holding you captive until it explodes in the final ten to fifteen minutes, unleashing full-scale horror. All throughout it stays gripping, then right at the end it starts ripping. Excellently shot with some unsettling camera movements and production design that captures the period as well as the evil closing in. Probably my favourite of the three. Finally, I saw Fear Itself, a documentary on horror films written and directed by Charlie Lyne. Or rather, it's not so much a documentary as a cine-essay, a stream of thoughts on horror films and the way that they relate to real human fears and anxieties. Impressive in scope and mesmerising in equal measure, the film itself is essentially a collage, in that it consists entirely of edited-together footage from existing horror films, and hypnotic narration over the top that takes you on an engrossing journey through humanity's darkness. The range of films chosen is admirable, encompassing a vast range of horror cinema from across the world and throughout history, even using some films that aren't traditionally considered horror films but which have certain elements that illustrate the points that the filmmaker is trying to make about horror films, which in turn ties back to the points he makes about humanity. And the exploration of the themes is engrossing, thoughtful and at times quite personal. It's transfixing and thought-provoking and highly recommended not just for horror fans but for anyone interested in the depths of the human soul. And that's all the horror films at the festival that I've been able to see so far, but there's more to come! A few I'm looking forward to are Killing Ground and The Devil's Candy, both by Australian directors, as well as The Lure and The Love Witch, which from what I've heard are very very weird, and I can't wait. There's still another week left of the festival, so get out there and start shitting your pants in terror. I'll be in the cinema with you, toilet paper in hand. Till next time, see you there...Written by Ben VolchokSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
