Possibly due to my idealism or complete indifference to plot holes, Dracula Untold (2014) is a very appealing depiction of failed self sacrifice.

I recently rewatched the first 2 seasons of Twin Peaks (in preparation to see The Return for the first time) and forgot how much was in there. When there was a brief glimpse at the map in the second season I was like "...is that MEANT to be a sign of Jupiter?" but they didn't touch on it until a few episodes later. I was suprised Coop didn't have his alchemical symbols memorized!

Stephen King's film "Hopelessness" - Rare film Apostles of the Raven, short film. Krabat and the charodeis. Stigmata. Howl 1 Howl 2 and the movie Wolf with Jack Nicholson...

Most likely, this is not a favorite film, but rather those films that help form a kaleidoscope-mosaic of all global occultism. That is, they are, as it were, parts of a global and cellular picture...Like cells of society or honeycombs in which we all work.

"Having walked in silence along a difficult and roundabout path, having accepted the blows of fate, the test of a noose, then of fire. Having played a game in which there is no equal, I rose above the vicissitudes of fate, forgetting about the burden of expenses, I found the key and that key is from the 9 gates"...

"Having walked in silence along a long and winding path, having rejected the arrows of failure and the noose of troubles, without being afraid and without retreating before the fire. By entering a game in which there are no equals and winning, despite the cost, you will crush fates and obstacles, and then you will obtain the precious key that will unlock the 9th gate".

This is a quote from the movie The 9th Gate, which in my opinion is considered one of the best on the topic of the occult.

I even have a postcard from this film and several books, including one on the 9th Gate practice.

Ninth Gate is amazing movie. Way better than the book. Though I recommend reading Club Dumas anyway, it has some cool hints on the Nine Gates book worth reading.

The Ninth Gate
I'm not too much into movies myself, but man, this one was fantastic, probably the first movie that comes to mind that i would watch several times. Not too much to say: Great comfy atmosphere, very alluring, it's just a cool film overall. Polanski made good stuff, he also worked on the "Chinatown" movie featuring Jack Nicholson "Jake Gittes" detective. Detectives and the occult are a wonderful combination.

I'll add one, that I lately really enjoy:
Batman: Doom that came to Gotham
Adaptation of comic tale, very Lovecraftian.

Dracula is name of dozens of movies. Which one is the one you refer to? Or if that's the name, what year it was published?
My reply:
Taste the Blood of Dracula (1970)

Thanks for sharing, I investigated about Night of the Demon and found 2 interesting things "Casting the Runes" by M. R. James and "Mystery and Imagination" the Brittish TV show wich aired their own adaptation of Casting the Runes.
Ramsey Campbell's favourite horror film. "It's in the trees! It's coming!" Kate Bush likes it too. As do I.
