Every Horrorthon I think I have a good grasp on what's out there but inevitably an entire body of work gets unearthed that demands attention.

I can't place my finger on it exactly but there's something both ominous and depressing about that sound to me. I also loathe clocks that chime on the half-hour/hour. My parents have one now that always seems to start clanging at themost inopportune time when you're watching TV. "And the murderer is.." CLANG, CLANG, CLANG, CLANG...<br /><br />This sounds like a terrific find, Whirlygirl. With Hitchcock's stamp of approval how could it be anything less than great? I look forward to your overall analysis of the films you watched this year. There seems to be a dichotomous split between great and awful French cinema.JPXhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03213973405902714780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17244873.post-40359910744381871012010-10-23T12:55:57.258-07:002010-10-23T12:55:57.258-07:00I'm with you Whirly, I love a slow character b...I'm with you Whirly, I love a slow character building film.

...Wow! Sounds cool. Love the Hitchcock connection.<br /><br />When desroc and I had our first apartment in Bristol it was three doors down from a church that rang the bell every hour - and half hour. It's amazing how quickly you get to a point where you don't even notice it.DKChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06564455767137872485noreply@blogger.com
