I just watched Ken Russell's The Devils.

It is a masterpiece of corruption and power grab, and it is so relevant today.

It's a story of an imperfect man being forsaken so oppressors can triumph. It's a story of accusations of devil worship, where denial of the accusations is as much a sign of guilt than a confession.

It's one of the greatest films ever made, an uncomfortable tale of hysteria and torture.

It's perhaps not for the faint hearted.

Want to understand how fascism wins?

Watch The Devils.

I can see why people didn’t like Beyond the Black Rainbow but it spoke to me of psychonaut John Lilly and the world my head inhabited in the late 80s. That of course links it with Altered States and the works of Ken Russell, although Cosmatos and Russell are very different… John Lilly characteristically liked Altered States despite or perhaps because of its absurdity. And Barry’s bad trip did remind me of something after all… #AlteredStates #LSD #BeyondTheBlackRainbow #KenRussell #PanosCosmatos #JohnLilly #horrormovies

Na liście filmów, które chciałbym w odświeżyć w niedalekiej przyszłości bardzo wysoko znajduje się "Gotyk" ("Gothic", 1986) Kena Russela. Zresztą w ogóle kusi mnie, by przejechać całego Russela, niczego nie pomijając i chronologicznie. Może kiedyś.

A wiecie, co mnie jeszcze kusi? Żeby faktycznie ruszyć z cyklem z historią sztuki w filmie – nie na taką skalę, jak z historią sztuki w komiksie, ale jednak.

No to skoro kusi... I skoro wspomniałem o "Gotyku"...

"Nocna mara" ("Nachtmahr") Johanna Heinricha Füssliego z 1781 roku i kadr z inspirowanej tym obrazem sceny z "Gotyku".

Repression and blasphemy in The Devils: Sex in art needs no excuses, part 3

Bottled up sexual obsession erupts as demonic possession of a group of cloistered nuns in 17th century France in Ken Russell’s film. A repressed nun develops a sexual obsession with an extremely not repressed priest and soon everyone is running naked and screaming while doing very naughty things with crucifixes.

💀🚨📣📽️ PSA 📽️📣🚨💀

Criterion just added a bunch of Ken Russell films, including the nothing-else-like-it-on-Earth masterpiece THE DEVILS - a brilliant & razor-sharp critique of religion and politics, wrapped in decadence & depravity 🖤

I own it on DVD but if you haven't seen it yet, it is well worth seeking out. Also, GOTHIC (😍) & THE LAIR OF THE WHITE WORM, which are equally WTF in different ways...
