Uwe Boll recommended Citizen Kane (1941) in Movies (curated)

Citizen Kane (1941)
1941 | Classics, Drama, Mystery

"Citizen Kane is, like you see now, P.T. Anderson‘s There Will Be Blood. It’s a good movie; it’s the same kind of thing. You follow a crazy character who gets really successful, and in a very bitter way. So I really love those two movies. It’s still one of the biggest crimes of Hollywood that they didn’t finance Orson Welles’ movies after a while. To have a genius like him, sitting there and trying to get his last 5,000 bucks together to make another movie after he did a movie like this… (Welles’ follow-up to Citizen Kane, The Magnificent Ambersons, was notoriously completed and re-cut without his input.)"

Always remember to pack a Virgin and a Rosary.

Awful things happen against beautiful backdrops and this is no different.
    I really like Emory, the horror film buff. He has a close, cheeky relationship with his twin sister, but for all the cheek he'd do anything for her. I enjoyed watching his character develop, his confidence grow and slowly realise how others see him.
    The relationship/dynamics between Emory and Conner are interesting.....friends/holiday neighbours.....Emory's secret crush...

This isn't for the faint-hearted, there is blood and danger and it's put me off abandoned buildings again! It's creepy and has a darkness throughout, I love it.

Track

"There are two versions of this that I’m aware of – if you don’t include Atlantic sessions and stuff like that. There’s the version on Let There Be Rock and the version that’s on this live album. And the one on If You Want Blood You’ve Got It is the definitive, mega version, because of the audience. Part of the beauty of the recording is the audience’s contribution to it. It’s hard to tell how much of it is a sound effect of a crowd added afterwards, but when they’re going ‘Angus! Angus!’ it’s hard to not suspend disbelief and really enjoy it for what it is – a great rock moment."

Terror Waits For You In Every Room
The House That Dripped Blood- is a excellent horror anthology film. Each story is linked by this eponymous spooky creepy terrorfying building that this inspector is trying to slove a mystery and gets told by the estate agent about the pervious owners.

The plot: A Scotland Yard inspector is treated to a quartet of horror stories while investigating a murder at a countryside estate.

Like i said each story is really good. From split personality story to a wax story to a voodoo story to a vampire story. All really good.

Highly recordmend watching it.
