October

Since it's Halloween month, I'm going to try and cover some horror films. Or films with horror elements in them. 

I'm gonna start with US by Jordan Peele, then perhaps HOUSE (70s Japanese horror film). I'll likely throw another one in there for good measure. Likely a Lynch film. Haven't decided yet. What do ya'll think? Oh and, let's try and keep this info exclusively on Patreon. Can't reveal all the secrets, can we? ;)

Oh wow, that's cool! I definitely think there's a LOT to dig into about the film subtextually, so it makes a lot of sense to do a paper on it and the source material. Truman Capote added such a potent layer of sexual repression that makes the film that much more unsettling. All that great writing, air-tight pacing that creates an unrelenting atmosphere of dread, and some of the most gorgeous cinemascope images ever. A true masterpiece IMO, and my favorite Gothic Horror of all time.

Haha actually, I did a huge research/analysis project on The Innocents in college before graduation. Dealt with both the book and the film. Though I don't think I've seen the movie since. However, I do own it somewhere.

Would love to hear your thoughts on The Innocents! Especially with the Haunting of Bly Manor mini-series coming out soon, there's no way that series can compare to Truman Capote + Jack Clayton's adaptation of The Turn of the Screw.

Andrew Reed

That movie has aged so wonderfully in terms of its look. I always wonder if we would even have Tim Burton as we know him without that movie in particular.

Tyler Shobe

Oh damn. You're right! That's a good choice.

I would like to hear your review of The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari. Film has 100th anniversary this year.

Oskitello

Sounds like an awesome idea! Definitely interested to hear your take on Hausu.

Christian Sanaploianu

Yeah, sounds good.

Oskitello

Yea, do it! There are so many great classics you could discuss or you could touch on some hidden gems.

Ryan

Sounds great! Hausu is a movie I've come to truly truly love in the last couple years and have been showing it to a bunch of people I know to mixed results. I'll be curious what you think of it.
