Soviet horror movie from the 1960s rather unexpectedly turns out to be a close spiritual cousin of the kind of films that Hammer et al were making in the west at the same time. A trainee priest finds himself compelled to spend three nights reading prayers over the body of (supposedly) a wealthy landowner's daughter - but the corpse bears a striking resemblance to that of a witch he earlier killed...

Not the longest of films, which is just as well as the pacing may require patience on the part of the viewer; after a very eerie sequence early on, there's a long wait until the stuff with the protagonist's vigil in the second half. Nevertheless, it's worth it, mainly because the special effects are remarkably good, well up to the standard of equivalent western films of the same period (and probably better). Not particularly scary or graphic by modern standards, but the climax has a creepy sort of power to it and the overall impression is of a classy and well-made film; if there's a political subtext to it, it's very well-hidden.

Martha!
The secind entry in what-was-then the burgeoning Extended Universe, following on from 2013's Man of Steel - the finale of which (re. seemingly half of Metropolis getting destroyed) has repercussions in this.

I remember the film was also hotly anticipated, with lots of speculation on who it would adopt the graphic novel 'The Dark Knight Returns', a portion of which features a showdown between the Man of Steel and Batman.

So, this introduces Ben Affleck's (aka 'Batfleck') during the prologue.

It's also - unfortunately - the movie with the infamous 'save Martha!' scene, and with the very ineptly handed expansion of the DCEU via video clips played on a laptop.

This version of Batman also seems to have completely abandoned his famous 'no killing' rule, dispatching goons left, right and centre during several key moments of the film, while Henry Cavill's Superman still needs to, well, 'lighten up' quite a bit to be closer to how the Man of Steel is more commonly viewed.

And don't start me on Jesse Eisenberg's Lex Luthor, or on the completely extraneous final 'Doomsday' act ...

(still, at least the Directors Cut manages to salvage it somewhat)

When you produce a baby on you own and that is the least complicated part of the pregnancy!

Evie has a happy marriage apart from her husbands mother and grand mother calling her a devil woman everytime they see her. She then becomes pregnant the problem is her husband has had a vasectomy and that is just the start of an extremely complicated pregnancy!


I thought this book was extremely well written. It has sex scenes in it but they are gentle and not too graphic. There are also some Violent scenes but nothing too macabre just possibly a bit grim. I think the relationship between evie and lucas is gorgeous so is the relationship between evie and malisa. Its a story that is relatable with a few things I actually found myself reminiscing about the birth of my youngest child with the birth scene it was beautiful. I don't know if that's the end of Eve's story but I would deffinatly like to read more of it and I think that there could be another book to carry on the story as it doesn't feel finished.
