60 of 124 · most liked firstFolk Horror week is going to kind of bleed into this week. I've seen and love The Blood on Satan's Claw and The Wicker Man. Seems only fitting to finish the Unholy Trinity! #NowWatching for the 1st time: 🎥 Witchfinder General (The Conqueror Worm) (1968) 🎬 Directed By: Michael Reeves

neutral · AI labelView post →The Unholy Three (1930, dir. Jack Conway) stars Lon Chaney in a sound remake of a film he made with Tod Browning 5 years before. A blackly comic crime melodrama, it was Chaney's only talkie before he passed away. What a loss to sound pictures, too: he's *fantastic* in it, the film itself great fun.

Crumb is a revelatory portrait of an artist. The brothers steal the show, tho. The Unholy, a glorified tv movie but not bad. Jules et Jim is a virtuosic masterpiece.

neutral · AI labelView post →Watched "The Unholy Trinity". The emptiest film I've seen in ages. No character depth, no heart, predictable, nothing to keep you watching (tho' Jackson has his moments). Events occur, people do things, there are gunfights, so what? #filmsky www.imdb.com/title/tt6300...
negative · AI labelView post →Uncoventional #ChristmasMovie recommendation. The Unholy Three (1930), the only sound movie #LonChaney ever made. This film is bananas. B.A.N.A.N.A.S. Not only do we have LC in drag, we have Harry Earles from #Freaks as a cigar smoking baby. "I like it. It's unholy!" www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ZZE...
positive · AI labelView post →I want more attempts to adapt James Herbert novels- at his best he's mixing horror beats and maximalist carnage, you could make a fun blockbuster out of his stuff. Sadly, The Unholy was bad and lacked all the wild shit that made the book fun (that a Raimi produced film could really capitalize on!)

Henry Broadway arrives in the Montana town of Trinity to avenge his father...by killing the sheriff, but things get murky when he arrives. Recommended.
