It's a bit slow-moving and talky. snail

By now, Ian Ogilvy would've crashed three sports cars and five speedboats.

A man has turned up who I recognise from somewhere else.

by **The Call of the Wendigo** Sun May 07, 2023 6:08 pm

He played a villain in some film but I can't remember what.

by **The Call of the Wendigo** Sun May 07, 2023 6:09 pm

Oooh, hold on. He was the villain in The Plague of the Zombies.

That was about voodoo.

And, so far, in this episode, all he's done is talk about voodoo.

Coincidence?

Or something altogether more grave-emptying? scared

So far, this is much classier than Return of the Saint but, also, much duller.

The Call of the Wendigo wrote:Of The Witches, the Radio Times says it stars Clint Eastwood as a husband battling comic-strip characters for the love of his wife.

Nightjar wrote:It seems to be a Hammer portmanteau film where the directors are among the gr8est Italian directors of all time.

Antonioni, Pasolini, De Sica...

It sounds completely bizarre.

That film is instead:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Witches_(1967_film)

Clint is in the final segment:

"An Evening Like the Others"

Clint Eastwood is a western movie lover who does not know how to change the flat relationship with his wife. One day the character disguises himself as a gunslinger to entertain his wife, but she is not impressed and he realizes that their relationship is broken forever. In the final scene, she imagines herself as a glamorous star, walking along in an evolving series of haute couture while being ogled by a growing crowd of middle-aged businessmen. She lastly dons a magnificent gown made of multiple layers of silk, each in a vibrant shade, which she peels away layer by layer.

One of the Radio Times's more baroque booger-oops I think.

This rubbish that's on on 'Legend' now is the feature film with Joan "Fell In The" Fountain in.

by Nightjar Sun May 07, 2023 9:37 pm

Every woman in this film is like Betty Marsden in Carry On Camping.

by Nightjar Sun May 07, 2023 9:38 pm

Which would be gr8 if it was a Carry On film.

Which it are not.
