Absolutely nailing the early 80s horror vibe almost masks the fact that very little happens for the majority of the film, and that which does is fairly predictable. Fun to watch but it’s a short stretched out 90-odd minutes. The House Of The Devil (Ti West, 2009)

Really good trolling would be to go see Picnic at Hanging Rock with some friends and then 35 minutes in get up and leave the theater and disappear and never be seen again by anyone in their entire life

Absolutely aghast to hear of Prof Marguerite Johnson’s sudden death last week. A superb classics scholar in her own right, I knew Marguerite from her vivacious hosting of online events for The Last Tuesday Society. Always enthused and supportive, I shall miss our little chats before a talk. RIP.
