Been listening to a bit of The Haunted lately. Mainly the “The Dead Eye” record. Just some beautiful guitar work on this one. And great vocals (as is normal for Dolving). Plus, I sometimes need a bit of Per Møller Jensen’s drumming.
🎬 1BR

Not super-logical. Was ok, with a few good scenes. But not really recommended.
🎬 Rope

I like movies that play in a single room – like a play at a theatre. It’s a pretty morbid play. And pretty clever. Reminded me of Columbo at times. Bonus points for making it look like a one-shot movie. Thumbs up!
🎬 Blade Runner 2049

A rewatch. First time was in the cinema, where this movie is much more impressive of course. But I liked it a second time on the TV, too.
Convincing story. Amazing futuristic and dystopian world. Probably would watch a third time at some point.
🎬 The Thing

One more horror classic. One more great film!
Reminded me of Alien in a few ways.
Great special effects. Great set. Great story. Great acting.
🎬 About Endlessness

My second Roy Andersson movie.
He has a unique style. And I think I still need to get used to it. Nevertheless, this was entertaining with it’s dry humor. I probably didn’t fully “get” this film, though.
🎬 Rosemary’s Baby

Another classic – from 1968! – I’ve never seen before. It’s deservedly highly respected! This must have inspired so many horror-movies after it. I can’t recall an earlier (horror) movie with that “secret backdoor” element, the “nosy neighbour cliché”, the “is the protagonist going crazy or is she right?”-storyline, or that “look through the door spy”-shot. And there are probably even more firsts in there.
Hail chocolate mouse! Hail Satan! Hail Rosemary’s Baby!

Structuring content with Microdata
Introduction to the basic concepts of Microdata: the structured data on the Internet.
🎧 Meliora – Ghost
🎧 TRILOGY – Carpenter Brut
🎧 Hiss Spun – CHELSEA WOLFE
Got into Chelsea Wolfe. Mainly her “Hiss Spun” album. It’s a bit like the heavy, less electronic, even more melancholic version of Portishead. Also reminds me of the acts that would play Twin Peaks’ Roadhouse. Love it!
🎧 Moontower – Dan Swanö
“The Big Sleep” was on some sampler when I was a teenager. I stumbled across this song again, and have now been listening to the whole “Moontower” album quite a bit. In case you don’t know: Dan Swanö plays all the instruments and does the singing, too. A true one-man-band.
