unlabelledView post →Let's assume that it was AND that it was released in 1896 prior to THE VANISHING LADY. The film involves an actress lifting babies out of the cabbage patch by one arm and setting them on the ground (clunk!) That's the narrative. Okay, if we want to squint and say that it is a narrative film...

unlabelledView post →Picking a random film from my collection to show off for no real reason! Year 2, Day #174 "The Vanishing" (George Sluizer/1988) I'm told this film is absolutely chilling with an ending that will stick with you. I wouldn't know though, as I have not watched it yet. I've got to watch this one soon!

unlabelledView post →I kind of gave up on the idea of a top ten silent films list, so instead let me choose one recommended film per decade of projected silent cinema! 1890s: THE VANISHING LADY (1896) is a simple illusion but Georges Méliès shows that the secret to film success is in a charismatic performance.
unlabelledView post →Some of you asked about other writing I've done for ANTI. I wrote this essay in 2023 to intro Andy Shauf's NORM, a beautiful, terrifying record. Imagine the Dutch movie THE VANISHING narrated by the kidnapper, the boyfriend, and a self-absorbed God, where most of the key events take place offscreen.

unlabelledView post →The Vanishing is way up on my list of film I know are probably as great as reputed but have exempted myself from ever watching. Giving a note to the teacher saying "Moss is excused from this screening, she's got a condition."
unlabelledView post →Spoorloos (The Vanishing). Unbelievably tense and unsettling film, particularly considering how little actually happens.
unlabelledView post →Using MOVIE as an acronym, recommend 5 films. My picks - (French silent films only) M - Michael Strogoff (1926) O - Onesime vs Onesime (1912) V - The Vanishing Lady (1896) I - The Inventor Crazybrains and His Wonderful Airship (1905) E - An Excursion to the Moon (1908)
unlabelledView post →The 1973 film with Christopher Lee is a British folk horror masterpiece and my personal favorite horror film (tied with the original 1988 Dutch version of The Vanishing); the 2006 film with Nic Cage is a hilarious slapstick comedy and trash classic
unlabelledView post →Just watched «Spoorloos» (The Vanishing) from 1988 and MAN what a movie. Loved it <3
unlabelledView post →‘Spoorloos’ aka ‘The Vanishing’ is so scary in many ways, not least is the kidnapping scene and the background sound. In the American remake it’s overlaid with music, but in the Dutch original you can hear the sound of people playing in the rest area… as poor Johanna ter Steege is kidnapped.
unlabelledView post →At the end of a screening of the European version of The Vanishing a man turned to the audience*, who were all contemplating what we’d just seen, and said, “Don’t do what the guy in the film did.” He walked out. It broke the tension. *It wasn’t a packed cinema. Just the man, my friend and me.
unlabelledView post →14. Few films have left me feeling as awful as The Vanishing. Not just a film about a disappearance or the life of a psychopath, but about all-consuming obsession. Go watch it!

unlabelledView post →Happy #LetterboxdFriday! What's YOUR #LastFourWatched? Blues Brothers & Scream were comfort watches while I was sick, love both. Inherit The Wind was on my Nana's movie list & was a great courtroom flick. The Vanishing started ok but nosedived 2/3 of the way through. Not recommended. #Letterboxd

unlabelledView post →I did like 1, 5, and 6, and also Get Out, Us, Wicker Man, Midsommar, Under the Skin. The Shining is a fave. But in general it's not my favorite genre. There is only one that permanently fucked me up and it is The Vanishing (Spoorloos) from 1988. Great film, but I really wish I hadn't watched.

unlabelledView post →Name the worst ever film remake. 🎖️ Original: Spoorloos (aka The Vanishing, Netherlands, 1988) 💩 Remake: The Vanishing (Hollywood, 1993) If not the worst ever remake, still the one that bothers me the most. The remake leaves out all the parts of the plot that make the original great.

unlabelledView post →I got a trial of StudioCanal yesterday to watch Mulholland Drive, and am currently watching the original of The Vanishing (Spoorloos). What a deeply unsettling movie that is. Everybody knows the final scene (right?), but I did not remember that the 90 mins before are also phenomenal.

unlabelledView post →In the movie, "The Vanishing" there's a scene where characters are cleaning up spilled mercury. It's clear they used gallium for the filming. Gallium has a lower surface tension than mercury, which you can see visually. That said, I'm glad they made the effort rather than just not having the scene.
