    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

    Italian film from the 70s

    Baba Yaga also know as Kiss Me Kill Me/The Devil Witch



    Weird film, very arty, great soundtrack and could technically also fall under erotica, so some nudity and adult themes therein. Should be up Marco's street.

    This just falls into Marco's time period being 1979



    If you ae going to remake something, then do it better or bring something new to the table. I think this film does both.

    Ok chaps, as twilight beckons, the log fire and candles have been lit, a cup of freshly brewed Assam tea poured, this time accompanied with a slice of Sainsbury's 'Taste the Difference' Columbian Coffee & Walnut cake, I'm just about to settle down for the evening with another toe-curling creepy classic, from the spider-infested vaults of YouTube, this time from 1977...

    Draw the curtains and lock the doors, it's time to enter the DEAD OF NIGHT:

    Bet that's not as good as the 1945 original.

    The part with Michael Redgrave as the ventriloquist and the monstrous 'dummy' Hugo was unforgettable.

    I loved 'Zardoz'. Weird definitely, but not disturbing I thought. Unlike the broodingly nasty 'Wicker Man', a happy ending for all bar one.
