Coming Wednesday, I'll be another (strange) aeon older. Which means I'll take a blogging holiday until next Sunday or so to have time to accept sacrifices, receive the other Old Ones, and take a break from sending out dreams of wholesome madness.
As always, I'll pop in on Twitter (@houseinrlyeh) from time to time, and may even answer emails.
Sisters, brothers and tasty morsels! The heat here in GermanyR'lyeh has dried out my typing tentacles, so there won't be any new content up on the blog until Wednesday.
Please amuse yourselves with today's column at WTF-Film until then. The usual stuff about Twitter (@houseinrlyeh) and email applies this time too.
Fellow M.O.S.S. agent Beth of Beth Loves Bollywood fame spends some of the 48 hours in her day on a weekly column about Bollywood movies for the India blog of the Wall Street Journal Online.
Because she has been slowly driven insane by us other M.O.S.S.ers, Beth decided to spend this week's column exploring the world of the movies of Harinam Singh, Hindi no budget horror auteur extraordinaire/from hell. Such a thing is, of course, an endeavour best not started alone, so Beth asked me a few pointed questions about the why and wherefore of a certain part of the cult movie bloggers' set's love for the works of the kindly Mister Singh.
Read all Beth discovered, and some of what I gibbered, here!
because even ancient evils get sick from time to time, it seems.
From today on, I'm taking my yearly year's end blogging vacation. So there will be no new posts here from me until the January 1st. If you'd like to talk to me in the meantime, you can always pop me an email. I'll probably even answer, unless I'm on family visit with Yog Sothoth, who still hasn't gotten around to getting itself connected to the web. I'll also still be infrequently doing the annoyed and bitter thing on Twitter as @houseinrlyeh over the holidays.
To everyone reading this blog regularly, thanks and happy holidays, season's greetings and/or whatever else may apply to you! Hopefully, I'll talk to you next year.
my birthday this Sunday, I'll be unavailable for the usual lengthy ruminations about movies of dubious merit.
Now to start eating cake a day early, like all good elder abominations do.
Turns out that being sick and rambling on about movies at the same time aren't what my brain was built for.
If you like, amuse yourself in the archives.
I have been invited to contribute to Mystic Skull Mag, a new web-based magazine of the horror persuasion.
First up are two (very slightly reworked) re-prints of my write-ups of Malabimba and The Yellow Sign. Site-exclusive reviews will follow. Of course, I will link to them from here when they go up, but why not take a look at the site right now and see what the other writers have to offer?
(And if someone should be worried: nothing will change here or with my regular stint at WTF-Film.com.)
