    ★★★★

    I would’ve given this mainly incoherent masterpiece three stars but I’ll give it 1/2 an extra star for a young and handsome Ewan Mcgregor’s ravishing dance moves and another 1/2 star for this to be the only tv show I’m aware of to feature a dance routine with a pantomime camel shitting everywhere.

  • The Blood on Satan's Claw

    The Blood on Satan's Claw

    ★★★

    Extremely harmful in its depiction of rape. On the other hand it uses its fetishistic elements to create an unpleasant atmosphere of the “church” being subverted. But the main trouble I have here, aside from its extremely patchy plot and almost stereotypical script, is how the church are the good guys. It’s a bit black and white in terms of morals, and it mainly just serves as an English historical folklore nightmarescape.
    It’s sold as a tale of Christian redemption…
