A Ghost Story for Christmas: Lot No. 249 (BBC, 2023)

"Well, I've given you my opinion. I stand flat-footed upon the ground and there I must remain. The world is big enough for us; no ghosts need apply."

I'm very grateful that Gatiss has been able (thus far; he's been quite public about what a struggle it #is to secure the funding for this kind of niche project) to keep the xmassy bbc ghost story tradition alive‚ and like any series of self #contained plays or anthology‚ there will always be stronger and weaker efforts. alas.. this is not‚ for me‚ one of the better of the new #batch of festive scares. for one thing‚ it leans strongly into what i would identify as Gatiss' chief weakness in comparison to the #Gordon Clark ghost stories: his commitment to putting the scares onscreen‚ where LGC rightly (imho oc) identified that it's much scarier #when you DON'T see the terrible thing. a captured glance‚ a distant image‚ a blurred something on the periphery and your mind filling #in the blanks; infinitely scarier than Gatiss' insistence on showing the monster‚ even having it roar down the camera‚ attempted jumpscares #that simply don't work like subtle‚ building dread do. i don't want to bag on him‚ but this isn't the strongest story to begin with and #combined with the hammer subtle modern horror sensibility of the direction it all ends up being... a little silly. i was enjoying Kit's #performance but the very ending was just farcical. for me. ymmv of course. i still hope he keeps making these anyway #and this one is pretty campy so it has that going for it. but maybe back to m.r. James next time eh Mark?

Lot No 249 — introducing a Christmas ghost story

The BBC has interviews with the cast / creators of Christmas ghost story Lot No 249. It’s another Mark Gatiss adaptation, this time an Arthur Conan Doyle tale. 1881. Old College, Oxford plays host to three very different young academics: Abercrombie Smith, a model of Victorian manhood, clean of limb and sound of mind; Monkhouse Lee, a delicate and unworldly student from Siam; and the strange and…

The Vampire Lovers [Collector's Edition] + Exclusive Poster Coming Soon from Scream Factory!

CAUTION: NOT FOR THE MENTALLY IMMATURE!

A diabolical female vampire ravages the young girls and other townsfolk of a peaceful hamlet in eighteenth century Europe in revenge for the killing of her fellow vampires years earlier. A rousing hunt for the vampiress ensues as a group of men follow her bloody trail of terror through the countryside. Adapted from J. Sheridan Le Fanu's novella Carmilla, this "rather erotic Hammer chiller" (Leonard Maltin) stars Ingrid Pitt (Countess Dracula), Madeline Smith (Frankenstein and the Monster From Hell) and Peter Cushing (Horror of Dracula, The Curse of Frankenstein).
