"....The Sky's Turned Black"


Last night I had a nice long fantasy type chat with my friend Nige
We are both film fans and both enjoy very different aspects of film genre Our conversation concerned the making of our own movie............me an action alien movie set in a Welsh Village.....his a meandering narrative new wave study of country visuals.... yeap geeks of the world unite! I found this strange little movie on youtube yesterday....I suspect that Nige would love the visuals ( an odd chilling little video I think you would agree) whereas I prefer the rather melancholy music ( The Sun's Gone Dim and the Sky´s Turned Black by Johann Johannsson ) The Music has been used in the trailer of the movie Battle: Los Angeles....which I hope to see at the weekend! Off to London later.......a city break will be wonderful....it will remind me that I can do......urban!

  1. I'm not so sure. Personally I think Jaws 3 was the best of the trilogy, and the plot was definitely more complex.

  4. Hope you enjoy your trip, and thanks for posting that intriguing little film even though I didn't have the foggiest idea what the visuals were all about, but I did like the unusual music.

  6. Very odd that little film. Remminded me of some of the short sequences in the dark comedy series 'Jam' from Channel 4.
    Been to see that Battle Los Angeles as the trailer was so good. You won't be disappointed. There's another film called 'Skyline' that's also supposed to be a good alien fright flik that I'm going to catch on dvd tonight.
    What is this strange facination we have with global annihilation?

  8. Hi John - I am making 4000 units of jewellery to sell this summer, I told my husband I can pay the bills if he is full time farmer so now have to put money where mouth is or the other way round - I miss your antics most of all, good thing posts are permanent so I can stalk you at my convenience. I took a video of part of the drive home from the city which i thought you might enjoy. Thanks for thinking of me, peace

  11. Just watched 'Skyline'. Actually it's a crap film and not a patch on Battle Los Angeles.
