A Dark Song is one of my favorite movies, and I'm not a religious or spiritual person; it reaches beyond the Faustian to the Odyssean, and must be experienced. Thorogood frames his analysis aroundโœ + aware that he has a partly non/post-Christian audience. youtu.be/LLUt8YOaXyQ

A Dark Song amongst the magnificent @jamiebower โ€˜s favourite four films. And who are we to argue.
Four Favorites with Stranger Things stars Millie Bobby Brown, Noah Schnapp and Jamie Campbell Bower ๐Ÿ‘€ The final episode of Stranger Things is out on Netflix December 31.

Beginning in 2014, prestige industries decided they urgently needed to diversify. They didnโ€™t purge established Boomers. Instead, they did everything possible to avoid hiring white millennial men. This is the story of a generation derailed by DEI. compactmag.com/article/the-lโ€ฆ

If youโ€™re Catholic this is a big bleedinโ€™ dealโ€ฆ Thanks @SohrabAhmari !!
Nearly a decade later, I finally watched @LiamGavinโ€™s 2016 indie-horror classic, โ€œA Dark Song.โ€ Creates such terrible dread โ€” and redemptive meaning โ€” with such economy of film language! Trusts the audienceโ€™s intelligence at every turn. An absolute master.

A Dark Song is screening tomorrow at Cinematek in Bussels. Much thanks to @AnneBillson
Wednesday 19 March at 21h30 at Cinematek in Brussels, I'll be introducing Liam Gavin's A DARK SONG (2016), originally pitched by its writer-director as "Ken Loach does The Exorcist". A unique film, highly recommended. offscreen.be/en/offscreen-fiโ€ฆ
