I'm off to see Rose of Nevada on Thursday. Very excited

And Roberta Tovey!
For @inverse.com, I wrote about one of my favorite early '70s horror movies, THE BLOOD ON SATAN'S CLAW, and why it may be the most subversive of folk horror's "unholy trinity": www.inverse.com/entertainmen...
1972. A bedridden girl draws a house, a ring of ancient stones… and walks into the picture. Escape into Night predates Children of the Stones by 5 years & is just as unsettling.

I don't go in for all that #recordstoreday hype. But I did go to my local today and grabbed these
Starve Acre & Rabbit Trap: grief, rural isolation & something ancient stirring beneath the surface. Back-to-back, they're almost unbearable — in the best possible way. Essential modern #folkhorror

I love that poster for Weapons
That British Library series is superb
I love that Michelle Dotrice (Mrs Edward Woodward) is on this one. A lovely connection with another of the unholy trinity :)
Rewatched Blood in Satan's Claw just the other night. It's still an immensely powerful film after 50 years.
New episode of Folk n' Hell is live and we're diving deep into the frankly stunning A Dark Song (2016).

I would love an English translation of the original novel.
Quite right, too. There's so much to love in Company of Wolves. I'm more than happy to forgive the odd inconsistency
Thank you! A-shopping I will go
Horror and folk horror seem to be an extremely fertile space for new and upcoming filmmakers. I've discovered so many of my now favourite directors and writers through horror films. Ben Wheatley and Mark Jenkin in particular
Glad to be of service :)
Have you seen his latest yet? Bulk? It's quite something
There’s something in the woods.A grandmother who speaks with unseen voices.A family that never had a chance.

Tumbbad (2018) — a god so dangerous even the other gods abandoned him, and one family too greedy to leave well alone. Indian #folkhorror unlike anything else. Essential viewing

Ben Wheatley's In the Earth (2021): standing stones, creepy strangers, folk ritual & body horror. Plus Reece Shearsmith being absolutely unhinged
It's weird, brilliant & worth your time

Every day the same ritual. Every day something shifts. Enys Men (2022) is shot on 16mm, soaked in #Cornwall & utterly resistant to easy explanation. The kind of film that gets under your skin and stays.

*Love* Hagazussa. It's a difficult watch at times but it really is a hell of a film

Flat landscapes. Ancient bogs. A family curse stretching back further than memory. Moloch (2022) is European #folkhorror at its most elemental. Slow, damp & deeply unsettling

No dialogue. No mercy. Azrael (2024) drops a mute woman into a post-apocalyptic forest ruled by religious zealots & something far worse.

Shamans, geomancers & a burial site that poisons everything around it. Exhuma (2024) is Korean #folkhorror at full stretch: mythic, visceral & startlingly ambitious.

FolknHell talks Bring Her Back (2025). Grief gone feral. Ritual, body horror & emotional cruelty dressed as maternal love.
Listen to the podcast. Ideally not alone.

Neil Jordan's The Company of Wolves (1984) takes Little Red Riding Hood apart and puts it back together as something feverish, erotic & deeply strange. A #folkhorror fever dream
