Savage Night: September 2009
http://savagenight.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Sunday, September 13, 2009. SHOCK CORRIDOR (SAMUEL FULLER, 1963). Samuel Fuller's foundational work predates the exploitation age, but his in morality-plays-cloaked-in-genre-films we find a precedent for what was to come in both style and social vision. Fuller's sensationalism is charged with the anxiety of the post-WWII/early Cold War period, a creeping panic that the social order is unsound and may give way at any moment to savage chaos. In 1963's Shock Corridor. To Cathy, meddling in the workings of t...

Wednesday, August 24, 2011. WE'RE BURIED, AIN'T WE? ONLY THING IS, WE AIN'T DEAD…". ON JULES DASSIN'S "BRUTE FORCE". While visiting Chicago last week, I was lucky enough to catch Jules Dassin's BRUTE FORCE. Which was showing on 35mm at the Music Box Theater as part of the Film Noir Foundation's Noir City: Chicago series. Dassin made a couple of classic noir films in the 40's and early 50's ( THE NAKED CITY. NIGHT AND THE CITY. Made in 1947, is raw bleak noir through and through. Slavoj Zizek has been wri...

Savage Night: "WE HAVE TO GO TO THE DESERT, BABY"
http://savagenight.blogspot.com/2011/09/we-have-to-go-to-desert-baby.html
Monday, September 5, 2011. WE HAVE TO GO TO THE DESERT, BABY". ON DAVID LYNCH'S LOST HIGHWAY. The 1997 David Lynch film LOST HIGHWAY. Is not particularly concerned with the moral philosophy of the Noir genre and cannot properly be labeled as such. As to the charges of incoherence, one must wonder if the confounded parties were paying attention at all. While the world of LOST HIGHWAY. But my intention here is not to mount a defense of LOST HIGHWAY. Or a tirade against its brainless fuckhead critics, nor w...

Savage Night: AUXILIARY TO "ON DEEP RED"
http://savagenight.blogspot.com/2011/08/auxiliary-to-on-deep-red.html
Wednesday, August 10, 2011. AUXILIARY TO "ON DEEP RED". Other assorted thoughts while writing the previous essay:. 1 Interesting that the image of the murder is drawn on the wall of the old house, preserved invincibly beneath the paint. It is difficult to image a realistic circumstance in which this picture could have been drawn on the wall and not seen by somebody else, but of course that isn't really relevant. This seems evident of another tendency which strikes me in DEEP RED. McNulty and Bunk figurin...

Savage Night: "THE PROSPECT OF VENGEANCE IS THE BEST REFRESHMENT"
http://savagenight.blogspot.com/2011/08/prospect-of-vengeance-is-best.html
Monday, August 15, 2011. THE PROSPECT OF VENGEANCE IS THE BEST REFRESHMENT". ON ABULI AND BERNET'S TORPEDO 1936. A big chunk of the last two days has been dedicated to tearing through a couple volumes of Enrique Sanchez Abuli and Jordi Bernet's TORPEDO 1936. Which has been such a pleasure in part because of the book's sheer nastiness and pitch black humor. TORPEDO. Aka Torpedo, who has found his calling in the new world as a hired killer. The brilliance of Jordi Bernet's pulpy style really comes through ...
