THE OLD GODS RISE

Demonisation

TRAPPED!

Bit grisly but when you're a young kid its grisliness that catches the eye. TRAPPED was my favourite card in the Civil War News card set that my big brother had. I used to wonder, where the hell was his leg!?

Happy Halloween!

 

XTRO SPECIAL: ALIEN FARM

 I've always liked the 1982 British horror flick XTRO, a cheapo alien spree set in the English countryside.

It got caught up in the Video Nasty furore in the late 80's, so be warned, its certainly not for the squeamish!

Besides the appearance of a life-size Action Man, featured before here, I did some digging into the location.

The early scenes are set in this lovely big house near a river and it always struck me as quite idyllic, the quintessentially English rustic backdrop for the gruesome terrors that unfold.

A little image searching of this house took me to this, Stockers Farm in Rickmansworth near London.

Although looking slightly different, there are enough points of similarity to make me pretty sure its the same house.

Checking up on Stockers Farm, turns out its a well-known London rustic location according to IMDB. 

Strangely their list does not include XTRO!

I wonder why?

What do you think?

If you only watch one Creepy film this Halloween watch this!

 The ORIGINAL 1980's Woman in Black. 

It's spooky as hell!
