Reviews & Commentary by Adam Groves
WERCKMEISTER HARMONIES
More art movie madness, a grim and mysterious Hungarian effort that will be best appreciated by film buffs with a lot of patience
THE WATER SPIDER
This oddity, hailing from early 1970s France, is the only movie about a tiny water spider transforming into a full-sized woman that I know of
THE WARRIOR
A totally crazed martial arts fantasy, THE WARRIOR isn’t “good” by any means, but as surreal thrill-a-minute entertainment it’s hard to beat
WARNING SHADOWS
There are no textual intertitles in this 1923 silent classic from Germany, which relates its psychologically grounded narrative entirely through shadowy and expressionistic visuals
WARLOCK
Far dumber than average eighties horror. It has some fun elements but has dated extremely poorly, and anyway isn’t at all scary
The Cannibal Within
A very strange little novel that’s obtained some minor popularity on the underground circuit. A good book? Not entirely. An interesting one? Most definitely!
CANDY IN THE DUMPSTER
A terrific horror anthology, attractively packaged and running an economical 151 pages
THE CAGE
I’ve previously crowned CODEX SERAPHINIANUS the strangest book ever printed, but this relic from 1975 gives that tome a serious run for its money in sheer nonlinear weirdness.
The Cadaver of Gideon Wyck
A strange, rather morbid mystery that in recent years has received attention doubtless due to the many bizarre and grotesque elements author Alexander Laing includes.
BY SANCTION OF THE VICTIM
A docu-novel based on the notorious 1965 Sylvia Likens murder, and an object lesson, I believe, in how not to write such a book.
