Just watched Kill List. Bloody hell..grim stuff.

Had a Ben Wheatley double Bill this afternoon. I like A Field in England more every time I watch it.

Up next, keeping the folk horror thing going , is Wakewood
 
I thought the idea was you're supposed to know what's coming in the end. In the same way that you know what's coming at the end of The Wicker Man.

I love Ben Wheatley. Kill List is excellent, but A Field In England is a perfect piece of cinema.
 
Serves me right for browsing the web while watching, a terrible habit. I'll give it another go because I have a feeling I missed something important judging by these comments
 
Wakewood is a great film. That was the second time I've seen it and I'm glad it's as good, if not better than I remembered.
 
I don't remember the specifics of what happened in the end but I do remember that veered completely in tone into this trashy Dennis Wheatley devil-rides-out thing. I really liked that. Looking forward to his High Rise adaptation. I completely fell asleep while watching Field In England. Should give it another shot.

Ben Wheatley should do a Dennis Wheatley story, but make it better. As much as I love The Devil Rides Out I don't like the Lords Of Light and the Christian symbolism at the end. I'd love it to be a period piece to include all Dennis' anti socialist , upper class loving schtick.

Imagine The Devil Rides Out in a modern setting though? That could be incredible. It would make the black magic stuff seem so out of time. I like the idea of someone stumbling across a lost art in a modern setting. It's kind of a Lovecraftian idea
 
It would be amazing, if done well.

See Simon Pegg is involved in a remake of Passing the Runes/night if the Demon?

Not sure what to think. If done well then, brilliant, but Pegg in a'Serious' role in a movie about occult type stuff?
