Outside our small safe place flies Mystery... A snake beneath the forest floor, a whisper: Melusine

Remember how I always complain that horror movies are all hack and slash and remakes and that there's no more gothic supernatural horror anymore? Well, I was wrong. See the following movie and get inspired. Or be scared. Be very scared.

After watching, some innocent souls out there are now going to be very, very, VERY nice to little old Hungarian gypsy women now. Or they are going to run away from Hungarian gypsies from now on!

When I went out to see it in my small town theater, there were some guys making very funny comments in the back row. Without giving too much away, the best of their comments were: "OH, NO, IT'S A NAPKIN! DON'T LET THE NAPKIN GET YOU!" and "That's the biggest iPhone I've ever seen!" (the camera angle put a character's iPhone so strongly in the foreground that it was comical) and "EXCUSE ME! I thought I told you to take me to Taco Bell AFTER the movie!" (during scenes where the supernatural knocking and creaking of wood beams sounded like fart noises). But soon the hecklers calmed down and got into the story. There were a lot of women in the audience, too, more so than I usually see when I go out to see a slasher horror flick. That makes sense. Because women like to see scary movies with good stories!

I kinda wished Bruce Campbell was in it, however. There were so many EVIL DEAD references, it made me homesick. Thank you, Sam & Ted Raimi for giving me a scary good time!

Oh, and THE Lamia is not a goat-headed demon, but a shark-daemon, hey!  It's a horror fantasy.  Anything goes, right?
