The March video clip will be coming early next week. Apologies for the delay this month, February’s shortness caught up with me and the Stygian Bough shows last weekend have me a bit behind. Wanted to keep you all posted. Stay tuned.

2023-03-01 17:21:54 +0000 UTC View PostThis month's clip is from the film Possession by Andzej Zulawski. This will mark the first in a forthcoming series of various other films he directed, though perhaps not in a consecutive order, where he also incorporates and explores the doppelganger theme.
