Favourite Cult Film

[Dino Velvet]

Crimes of Passion, and just about everything else directed by Ken Russell.

Hell yeah! Crimes Of Passion is great. I really enjoy the later Anthony Perkins movies like the Psycho sequels and Edge Of Sanity.

Hey, Dino. I thought it was interesting that K. Russell actually threw in a few very Psycho-esque scenes towards the end of Crimes of Passion. Crimes explored two of Russell's favorite themes; the hypocrisy of Catholicism, and the persecution of saintly prostitutes. Russell was pretty clear about those two concepts in much of his work.

Knowing you, Dino, you're probably familiar with these other awesome Russell films But, if not, here are two more I'll bet you'd also like.

The Whore,I'm familiar with Ginger Lynn,had a bit part in that.

I'm eagerly waiting to see when The Devils finally gets a proper DVD release. It keeps getting postponed and postponed. I'm not only a fan of Ken Russell but also Oliver Reed.

Nicole, whenever I think of you David Lynch and Alejandro Jodorowsky come to mind. I hope you've been able to see Santa Sangre.
