‘THE LAST SACRIFICE’ Official Trailer 2025 – The Truth Behind 1970s Folk Horror YouTube video by BritFlicks | Indie Film Trailers Worldwide

I watched 'The Last Sacrifice' last night; it falls between the two stools of 'true crime tale' and 'sociological overview', but it's definitely worth a watch - especially if you're our @generalwitch.bsky.social listner... youtu.be/rcfAuUjibAk?...

Classic Beeb tactic! They did run it in order - and I can clearly remember feeling a) discombobulated and b) heartbroken when the last episode finished... (I wish I could pass a message back in time to teen me saying 'Be patient...') 😀

Joyce Carol Oates
@Joyce... 17h O
So curious that such a wealthy man never posts anything that indicates that he enjoys or is even aware of what virtually everyone appreciates— scenes from nature, pet dog or cat, praise for a movie, music, a book (but doubt that he reads); pride in a friend's or relative's accomplishment; condolences for someone who has died; pleasure in sports, acclaim for a favorite team; references to history. In fact he seems totally uneducated, uncultured. The poorest persons on Twitter may have access to more beauty & meaning in life than the
"most wealthy person in the world." Elon Musk ' @elonmusk

Oates is a liar and delights in being mean.
Not a good human.

lol she got his ass and he knows it

Huge thanks to everyone who contributed to our latest Samhain issue of the General Witchfinders zine. We honestly couldn’t have done it without you. A terrifyingly talented bunch, one and all. Go follow them, check out their work, and tell them we sent you

BBC Archive just uploaded The Lonely Shore (1962), a surreal 15-minute short that takes the form of a scientific report from an abandoned and desolate future Britain. Written by Jacquetta Hawkes, an actual archaeologist, and directed by Ken Russell, an actual madman.

I've avoided mentioning Villa since the start of the season as it was depressing me frankly - very relieved that normal service is resuming! #AVFC

Agreed! It's terrific to see a band have this (ongoing) renaissance and not just be a nostalgia act!

A view of Westminster and the Houses of Parliament from the terrace bar of the Royal Festival Hall

In TV's London tonight to see Suede at the Royal Festival Hall, and the view from the bar is lush as always, unfortunately had to wade through a disturbing amount of Flag Shaggers to get here
