Comment

of this film if they have talked so much, more to the alleged value symbolic than for artistic merit. The same Zampaglione - yes, that of Tiromancino - proclaimed him more or less the point of restart of Italian horror cinema.

On the Net have read all of the colors: yes, he's right, no, it's an inflated balloon, one swallow does not make a summer etc etc.

In the end I decided to see it, of course, streaming, since Shadow had a distribution shameful to say the least, not at all in accordance with the tam-tam of the Web A demerit that goes far beyond the value intrinsic film. If the films do not make them see, we can hardly judge them. Once again San Streaming I came to the rescue, though I remain certain that the cinema films have an undeniable value.

Well, as this Shadow?

Honest, not exceptional, but well shot.

Zampaglione have done your homework and know the kind. Not a small feat, believe me, with so many upstart you improvise writers / singers / actors etc, I have the greatest respect for who has the respect of "study" the first craft to seek the glory.

That said, the film will undoubtedly immortal horror myths, probably even those of Italian cinema. Too much standard in the diagrams, without flashes of originality or genius. A little 'torture-movie a bit' not Texas Chainsaw Massacre , with a finale that veers sharply toward the paranormal (so to speak), or so suggests.

However the film is enjoyable, more in the first half hour, in which the suggestions of spectral and semi-desert mountains reign supreme. Wind, woods, night landscapes, old legends, all very beautiful and well chosen, so that seems to be a novel by Eraldo Baldini or Danilo Arona.

From there on, the film becomes a sort of Hostel darker and without the slightest breath of dark humor (this is good). The bad is cruel to the right place and has a physical appearance that puts some excitement for real. Not to mention the place where he lives, a sort of ancient house where traces of the worst crimes of humanity filmed (with an eye on Uncle Adolf).

In all honesty, I must admit that this genre of horror cinema is certainly not among my favorites, so my enthusiasm was not particularly stimulated the idea to tackle a story like that. Without the accounts I'm not disappointed, however, evidence that the story in its own way, it works. In spite of the many "ifs" and many "but" understood that ending that continues to convince in half.

place everything we can speak of the rebirth of Italian genre cinema?

really.

No, because elsewhere, in France, Spain, Scandinavia, the horror and the fantastic produce good films repeatedly, for years now. There are ideas, there is no audience, there are bigger budgets and, wonder of wonders, there is also the desire to break the mold and offer something new. Or at least variations of plot and narrative innovations older. And, most importantly, you are creating a tradition, which is dead here in the first 80, or a millennium ago.

long as we are still only in Italy Shadow , well, we can only speak of an anomaly.

Seeing the little (non-existent?) Has reserved space that the distribution of the film Zampaglione, I'd say more than we are seeing a resurgence nth swan song.

I hope I'm wrong. Heart.

Colured Net Curtaines

Reporter fantastic




Since this morning I mentioned in my writing 2011-2015: Selected Scenes from the yellow pandemic (an investigation of Cristina Riccione) , or World War Z the Survival Blog, I want to ask if you know other works written in the same style.

That is in the form of fake journalism (or documentary), applied to a horror or science fiction story. So the question does not apply to the many valuable and real reportage from the theaters of war. Titles which also devour often.

At the moment I can think of almost nothing, although I am sure that there will be other writers in the genre before cimentatisi superb Max Brooks.

Obviously there All in Zanzibar by John Brunner, a book that I have a love / hate, but has much more of a merit on the rump.

A very Italian and very good example would be the story of Glaucus Silvestri The interview, one of my favorites, for what concerns the long-time blogger friend (download is free).

In the field of cinema, I can not cite The Road to the great mockumentary in which a troupe of journalists follows the trail of an imaginary journey into HP Lovecraft Polesine.

Something very similar promises to be Troll hunter , I signaled that long ago, and I have recovered in recent days. As soon as I the time to browse it will let you know.

Meanwhile, you have other titles? Provided that the plant is the one mentioned: journalistic or documentary, applied to the fantastic stories.

Blueprints Transmission

Stay alert, Report Symptoms




I know many of you are working on editing the Survival Blog.

Excellent! Keep doing. And, if you have already done, re-read everything again and see if the result satisfies you.

From February 15 you can start send your contributions. Here and here we are some minimal information about the project. Others will be later.

remember that the co-editor of Germano Book and Negative . We both of us to manage the selection of pieces included in the eBook Summary of Survival Blog. Without the math very sloppily to fear that, for reasons of space, a selection will be rather hard. But we'll see, time and right now there's almost nothing we have not decided.

A note on the question of its timing: I received a few comments like "you have to move ", " then when it arrives? " etc etc.

sure I am not referring to those who have said it in jest and irony, making me smile too, but all the others, those who make claims so rude.

If I get more invitations of the kind concluded by now I will hold my commitment to get something good from the Survival Blog.

In principle we are all working for the glory. We are doing this in my spare time, with effort. I would say that we do and perform tasks that many publishers do not even dream any more to consider. Add

also work quickly leads to disastrous results. Enthusiasm is a good fuel, it burns quickly and sometimes pollute.

So either you do it right or leave everything as is. For me they are both acceptable solutions, so do you. It may seem unpleasant statement (in fact it is), but I think it's still better to dot the "i" that does not leave too much room for misunderstanding.

A side project




Coordinate and not just for me is an acceptable solution.

writing already and I missed, like many of you have said and repeated the scenario of the Survival Blog has many ideas that would be a shame not to exploit.

I had pointed to the possible spin off of the SB, and a couple of weeks I'm working on the first of them. The working title is 2011-2015: Selected Scenes from the yellow pandemic (an investigation of Cristina Riccione) . Henceforth, for simplicity I will refer to it only as "SsPG.

The state will be shamelessly copied from World War Z . The I admit without reservation, as it would be useless to deny it or hide behind sterile byzantine to redefine reality.

SsPG So will the WWZ Project Survival Blog.

style of Max Brooks talk about a doomsday scenario in the world is so apt and innovative venture to call it almost a narrative genre in its own right. New and unexplored.

After the experience of "catastrophism in the form of blogs," a spin off of the SB could not but follow the opposite path: complete detachment from my alter-ego and emotional storytelling. The setting is perfect for journalistic WWZ this I have in mind.

material and ideas abound. I'm drawing diagrams, reading several SB, sifting through the photos on Facebook . Everything suggests a pleasant and satisfactory end result. It will not be original? Well, at least I know now.

I wrote the first three contributions. Read back and correct, still I find them quite match what I had in mind. SsPG then goes on, and quite quickly. Venture a prediction, I think I could propose it in ebook long before the final work of the Survival Blog.

Stay tuned.
