Daily Halloween: Night 7

I put on The Killing of Jacob Marr, a low budget indie horror film, tonight. It was wholly unremarkable so I did some work while it played in the background. No more need be said of it.

But I’ll take a moment to sing the praises of Ken Russell’s weird Lair of theWhite Worm (1988). I saw it in high school, sometime in my twenties, and then again about a month ago. It has new Doctor Peter Capaldi, an early-career Hugh Grant, and, in a fearless performance, a vampy Amanda Donohoe. It's a crazy movie full of hallucinatory psychosexual imagery, and really quite fun.
