It's of a very similar ilk with the authenticity as well as sense of malice. Interesting production - shot entirely on 500 iso 35mm film with only natural light - night scenes lit with bowls of tallow which is what was used in place of candles at that time. Was at Q&A with the DP.
Saw it at Camerimage last week and it certainly does seem relevant.
I was left wondering if newspapers were really a thing centuries before the printing press - slave scribes perhaps? - and the sharks...
Cabrini also felt very topical.
Just saw a couple very recommendable films. Not horror per se but creepy, macabre and with sense of inescapable dread. The Devil's Bath, if one liked The Witch, this is a great hyper-real companion. Set in 1700s Austria (Austria's Oscar submission). And Girl With A Needle (Denmark's Oscar entry).
K475 was the name. Another Hamilton automatic that's probably even more rare - and I still have - is the Odyssee 2001. Hamilton made the prop watches for the Kubrick movie and did some of these (with the spelling change) when the movie came out. Still runs great!
Not a Hamilton but still have an Accutron Spaceview. More common but a classic.
For me, the K475 was close, and perhaps even more rare. T403 was really cool, too. Those both being Hamilton automatics rather than electrics though,
I had one - and quite a few others. Still have the '57 Ventura, a couple Pacers, a Specter and a few others. The Altair is super cool though very delicate with easily bent lugs.
