If the people speaking in this documentary were to be believed, The Shining is actually about the Holocaust, the American-Indian genocide, sexual liberation, sexual abuse, the destruction of society, the number 42, the ancient Greek legend of the Minotaur, all wrapped up in a confession about how Stanley Kubrick helped fake the moon landing. Also, you should watch it in reverse whilst simultaneously watching it normally, preferably with both projected over one another...

I'm not sure just how much I buy into any of that, but there's certainly some wild shit being thrown around in this documentary. Worth a watch, complimented with alcohol, or maybe even some of the Devil's Lettuce.

July reads!
Just finished my last book for July! Managed 21 which was a little low due to enjoying the Olympics .

Some new authors for me as well as some favourites and some rereads!

Highly recommend Adam Nevill his books are just brilliant Banquet of the Damned was outstanding the second time round.

If you love a good zombie as well as some comedy definitely go for Death in a Northern Town just so so funny!

Worst was possibly Savannah James and The Merchants house they failed to grab me.

As always I have some indie authors in there too!
Mason sabres society dearies is really getting good.

Looking forward to August and the books to come!!

"Buñuel’s work is very important to me because it made me understand how far you can go with imagination and still be so close to reality. For me, The Exterminating Angel is so real—maybe Buñuel wouldn’t be happy to hear me say that because he’s not famous for his realism. But even if it’s a surrealistic parable, I’ve been so many places where I felt like I was living inside the feeling of this movie. It’s like a documentary about society. When I was making my movie Happy as Lazzaro, I surveyed movies that all talk about how to be good, because Lazzaro is a good man. Viridiana came up as something to watch."
