Eraserhead [VINTAGE FILM REVIEW]
Eraserhead is probably David Lynch’s most famous film, and gives you a good idea of what his signature (Lynchian) style is like. It’s oneiric, dark, and properly surreal. (Surreal is a description that tends to be a little bit over-used, but it can definitely be applied to almost anything done by Lynch.) Its strangeness goes beyond the surface, giving it a dreamlike, noirish atmosphere. Sometimes it’s almost calming (albeit eerily so), while at others it depicts scenes taken from an absolute…

The Cabinet of Doctor Caligari [VINTAGE FILM REVIEW]
I have been meaning to review this particular film for ages now, and I suppose there are few better places than here to do just that. The Cabinet of Dr Caligari is one of the most well-known films from the silent era, and not only that, is one of the most famous and influential horror films ever made.

The Hunger [FILM REVIEW]
If you haven’t guessed already, this is one of the essential Goth films. It’s ridiculously chic, it has vampires in it, and it’s arty; not to mention the fact that none other than Bauhaus appears at the very start of the film, performing the quintessential Goth song “Bela Lugosi’s Dead”. That is pretty much as Goth as it gets.

Harold and Maude [USER REVIEW]
Harold is a young man from a wealthy background. Dissatisfied with life, his favourite activity is staging fake suicides, much to the dismay of his long-suffering mother, who wishes that he would find a wife. Harold’s other hobbies include watching demolitans and attending random funerals. Also, he drives a hearse. Death-obsessed and lonely, Harold doesn’t really have any friends…well, except for one person, maybe.
Angel-A [USER REVIEW]
I have to say that shooting this movie in black and white was a stroke of genius. It definitely adds a lot to the whole atmosphere of the film. While I don’t know anything about cinematography (hope I spelled that right) I can safely say that Angel-A is visually fantastic, and tres chic.

Un Chien Andalou [User Review]
For me, this is the sort of film that is best interpreted emotionally. It’s a very atmospheric work, and I’d recommend just losing yourself in all of its wonderful strangeness. I wasn’t bothered too much by not fully understanding the story behind it, because it still managed to arouse all sorts of feelings inside of me. I didn’t quite understand these feelings- they were just as much a mystery to me as the film itself -but that’s just what made them so incredible to experience. If a film, or any other work of art, is capable of doing that, then I feel that it has…
