I think that's, like, the tenth time you've recommended Harvest Home
to me, I'll really have to find it one of these days. It sounds like
something I'd like. It doesn't seem to be easily available, though.
I have? Damn. Sorry. It's just it's the best pagan horror flick that I've
seen. (Not that I've seen that many. I couldn't get through Wicker Man (the
Chris Lee version) and haven't tried Nick Cage's.) And whenever anyone
brings folk/pagan horror-- my mind goes to it. It's probably not as good as
I remember. The critics hated it. Keep in mind for my cultural
anthropology minor -- I studied British pagan rituals, specifically in the
area of Wales. This was however back in the 1980s. And was rather
fascinated by the whole Goddess traditions and horror novels situated
around it -- even tried to write one. I read Donna Tartt's Secret History
(which I liked the best), Waking the Moon by Elizabeth Hand (the least) and
Tom Tyron's Harvest Home, along with more romantic novels not worth
mentioning. It's not easy to find. Tends to be more cult.
