russian horror

The long, cold winter is upon us. And can't you just feel the folk horror lurking about in the silence of the snowfall? Join us, as we travel back to Europe for three more folk horror nightmares.

Bears behaving badly in Lithuania, in Lokis: A Manuscript of Professor Wittembach (1970).  Serbian vampire legends making for dangerous mill work in Leptirica (1973). And then from there, discover the mysteries of a secluded island convent. With candlelit catacombs, obviously. Dark Waters (1993). 

So excited to watch one of Julia's favorite films - set in one of Teri's favorite places -Moscow, Russia! This week's film is NIGHT WATCH (Ночной Дозор) (2004) is a fantasy-thriller written and directed by Timur Bekmambetov about an ultimate battle between the light and dark based on a novel by Sergey Lukyanenko. 

Stellar performances across the board by this cast lead by Konstantin Khabenkiy as your new favorite unlikely anti-hero who gets caught smack dab in the middle of the battle. 

Do yourself a favor and watch this film first - then dig into the episode!

In this episode Regina takes us back in time on a terrible trek through the Dyatlov Pass in 1959 Soviet Union pre-Russia era.  Where we discover you can never have too many Yuri's, and that maybe you should pay attention to the names of things.

Then we get a good old fashion Russian fairy story from Lynn when we learn about the Baba Yaga and her sweet decorating skills.

That's right, we've gone Russian for this one!
