Our last Director’s Lottery* sees us tackle one of Graham’s beloved Czechoslovak New Wave directors – Juraj Herz, the thrilling maniac behind The Cremator. We chose his 1972 Gothic fantasy Morgiana, which is less viciously political than his best-known film but equally mad, and equally replete with fish-eye lenses.
In Off the Shelf, Rob reviews Mafia Inc., a French-Canadian gangland epic by Podz. That’s it, just Podz. We’re perplexed too. There’s also a review from Graham about Helmut Newton: The Bad and the Beautiful, documenting the controversial career of the German fashion photographer and containing the best Grace Jones interview since, well, probably since whatever the last one was. Also Rob has enjoyed a VoD horror movie, so don’t let this historic event pass you by!
