Greetings All - Sorry for the delay in posting, crazy month. On sale right now for only seven dollars on Vudu is an epic documentary on the history of folk horror from it's beginning and it's ultimate impact on culture around the world. At over three hours in length and covering over 200 films, there simply has never been a documentary this thorough and comprehensive on the subject. Starting with the basic forerunners like Wicker Man and Witchfinder General the genre is tracked through the '70's (I loved the little segment on Psychomania, AKA Death Wheelers) and forward. The film is the brainchild of Kier-La Janisse and she is to be absolutely commended on a complete collection of folk horror movies she has included. I had to get a pen and pad out to jot down all the movies that caught my eye for whatever reason and I want to see. Which is pretty much what this blog is all about so I would recommend this documentary to any regular blog visitors here. 4.0 stars/5
