ESOTIKA EROTICA PSYCHOTICA: January 2007
http://esotika.blogspot.com/2007_01_01_archive.html
SEX, ART, HORROR AND EXPERIMENTATION IN WORLD FILM. Wednesday, January 31, 2007. January Update / Renato Polselli. Also, I'd like to start adding some more content to this blog other than just reviews. The entire idea behind this blog, in the first place, was to have a place where I could post film reviews, articles, and the like, in an effort to generate content for a website that I hope to eventually create. Renato Polselli: Philosophy of the Sin. Renato Polselli: Dramas and Vampires. That started popp...

ESOTIKA EROTICA PSYCHOTICA: An Esotika Canon for 2015
http://esotika.blogspot.com/2015/03/an-esotika-canon-for-2015.html
SEX, ART, HORROR AND EXPERIMENTATION IN WORLD FILM. Saturday, March 28, 2015. An Esotika Canon for 2015. With that being said, here is a list for 2015, that I feel comfortable establishing as an "Esotika Canon," which could perhaps be considered a new "Post-Genre Canon," or a Canon for the exploration of UFOs (Unidentified Filmic Objects). Visitor to a Museum. While the narrative of Sombre. Directly appeals to my taste in stories. More, La Vie Nouvelle. Takes precedence because of what it does. Doctors a...

SEX, ART, HORROR AND EXPERIMENTATION IN WORLD FILM. Tuesday, January 22, 2008. VENUS IN FURS (JESS FRANCO, 1969). The first time I saw Venus in Furs. Was four years ago; Blue Underground's stunning DVD presentation had yet to be released, and with only six Franco films under belt, I was still a Franco novice. I had been working through the few films of his that I could find, and before Venus in Furs. The only one that had stood out to be was Virgin Among the Living Dead. But Venus in Furs. And it was at ...

SEX, ART, HORROR AND EXPERIMENTATION IN WORLD FILM. Sunday, June 21, 2009. ARREBATO (IVAN ZULUETA, 1979). Itself is at the threshold of genre and experimental cinema. Finding itself with one foot in both worlds, meshed together perfectly, it is a cinema of ideas, a cinema of power. It is a cinema of abjection. We'll start with this. This cinematic addiction is paralleled by Jose's relationship with Ana- his ex-lover who formerly left. Their relationship, normal at first, quickly devolved into an inte...

SEX, ART, HORROR AND EXPERIMENTATION IN WORLD FILM. Wednesday, June 17, 2009. I went through all my old entries to delete all the spam comments I've been noticing and realized that there were about 25 comments that I hadn't seen, some over a year old. I finally figured out how to turn on email notifications for comments, so even if it's on something old I should get notified of it. Sorry for any confusion in the past!

ESOTIKA EROTICA PSYCHOTICA: February 2007
http://esotika.blogspot.com/2007_02_01_archive.html
SEX, ART, HORROR AND EXPERIMENTATION IN WORLD FILM. Friday, February 09, 2007. THE EMBRYO HUNTS IN SECRET (KOJI WAKAMATSU, 1966). Koji Wakamatsu is often considered an enfant-terrible of Japan's studio system early on in his career, and his experiences in the studio affected him so much that he abandoned it all together, financing his films through outside sources so he would have total control over his final product. The Embryo Hunts in Secret. Is it always 'like this'? It is that Yuka resembles. Get a ...

ESOTIKA EROTICA PSYCHOTICA: April 2007
http://esotika.blogspot.com/2007_04_01_archive.html
SEX, ART, HORROR AND EXPERIMENTATION IN WORLD FILM. Friday, April 20, 2007. FATA MORGANA (VICENTE ARANDA, 1965). Not to be confused with the Werner Herzog film of the same title, is the brilliantly complex debut film from Vicente Aranda that lies somewhere between the films of Jess Franco, Alain Robbe-Grillet, and the gialli film. A chase scene through abandoned factory buildings is highly reminiscent of an early scene from Alain Robbe-Grillet's Eden and After. Another interesting point to note is that t...

SEX, ART, HORROR AND EXPERIMENTATION IN WORLD FILM. Sunday, June 14, 2009. LANDSCAPE SUICIDE (JAMES BENNING, 1986). The film ostensibly examines two murderers: 16 year old Bernadette Protti, who killed a classmate for no discernible reason; and the infamous Ed Gein, who, as any horror fan knows, was the prototype for cinematic manifestations of terror ranging from Norman Bates in Psycho. To Leatherface in The Texas Chain Saw Massacre. Posted by magick mike at 8:01 PM. Where can i find this? I got it in a...

ESOTIKA EROTICA PSYCHOTICA: POTENTIAL EXPLANATION OF ABSENCE
http://esotika.blogspot.com/2011/11/potential-explanation-of-absence.html
SEX, ART, HORROR AND EXPERIMENTATION IN WORLD FILM. Monday, November 21, 2011. POTENTIAL EXPLANATION OF ABSENCE. I was recently contacted via twitter about a disappointment regarding the complete absence of any esotika activity since basically 2009, even after I announced the potentiality of a periodic web-journal back in July. Also, for what it's worth, here's the email I sent out to potential contributors to the Esotika Journal Project:. I am writing to you because I have encountered either your ideas ...
