Cinema dei Apocryphilia is moving! As a result, there will be no #Scarefest on Saturday, July 16 and perhaps not on the 23rd, either, so we're returning to the triple-feature format for July the 9th to hold the Apocryphiliacs over until we're back!
So let's go weird and wild! Nobody does that better than the four directors we've selected for this poll! There's a lot to discuss--more than we can do in one post--so I will be threading all the information about our options in reply to this post.
Unfortunately, my DVD drive crapped out, so we can't watch the three movies by Seijun Suzuki that won this week's #Scarefest poll.
Undaunted, we will instead be streaming three RINGU movies (since they're on Shudder). There is also the possibility we may still watch BRANDED TO KILL (my favorite Suzuki) on Sunday, because I found it on YouTube (I have ad-free Youtube Premium). Once the DVD drive is fixed, sometime in the coming months, we'll revisit Suzuki. 👍
@Apocryphiliac
Are you going to show Prince of Darkness sometime?
@strummerdub I definitely want to show Carpenter's "Apocalypse Trilogy" at some point! It's very high on the list!
@strummerdub In fact, if you want to commit to coming to watch, I'll take that as an official request and put it next on the docket. The Thing, Prince of Darkness and In the Mouth of Madness. 👍
@Apocryphiliac
Never saw In the Mouth of Madness.
Commit?! What is this commit business?!
@strummerdub Lol. It'll be a little while. At least a few weeks, because I haven't even set up wifi for my new place yet. Who knows how long it'll take them to get it installed once I choose a place. Until then I'll be using my phone as a hotspot and I kind of doubt it'll be reliable in my basement.
@Apocryphiliac
I don’t know how you do it.
I can barely focus for one movie!
@strummerdub I do other stuff while I'm watching. Like tomorrow I'll be shredding documents and packing. 😂
@Apocryphiliac
Get rid of the evidence!!
@Apocryphiliac
The Thing?
