55 of 55 · most liked firstWatched a two hour Soviet-era Belarusian film* and it's a slowie and I started getting sleepy/feeling weird and I blamed the film for most of an hour before I remembered I got my Covid booster tonight. I also ate an entire package of Pecan Sandies. That's on me. (*The Savage Hunt of King Stakh)

unlabelledView post →I'd recommend it to fans of Jodorowsky and Andrzej Żuławski, that kind of rambling frenetic strangeness steeped in symbolic imagery. See also: Eastern European bangers like Viy (1967), Valerie and Her Week of Wonders (1970), The Hourglass Sanatorium (1972) and Savage Hunt of King Stakh (1980) 👌...

unlabelledView post →The Savage Hunt of King Stakh/Дикая охота короля Стаха (Valeriy Rubinchik, USSR, 1979) The Soviet film industry wasn't keen on supernatural horror films (since they didn't exactly cleave to Socialist Realist principles), and this is a very rare example; aside from Viy (1967), there's not much else.

unlabelledView post →The Savage Hunt of King Stakh: it’s a real bummer there weren’t more Soviet horror films. The style may be far away from realism but the suggestion of old tsarism and theocracy being spirits haunting the land is terrific. Tremendously chill vibes in this.
