I finished Donal Grant this evening. Hard to believe MacDonald could improve on Sir Gibbie, but he may have in this sequel. Adventure, mystery, deep theology — and those great MacDonald characters. Doesn't get much better.

"… it is merely the voice which tells us distinctly that man is not the creature of the drawing-room and the Stock Exchange, but a lonely awful soul confronted by the Source of all Souls, and you will realise that to make literature…" (continued)

There's something to this notion. It reminds me of quotes, like the following, from Machen's Hieroglyphics: "… from the literary standpoint, Catholic dogma is merely the witness, under a special symbolism, of the enduring facts of human nature and the universe…" (continued)

@BruvverEccles Now do the artists. Protestants have fewer (and inferior) novelists, artists and composers because they have rejected the sacramental cosmology.

An expected guest appearance on ep. 4 of Colonel March of Scotland Yard: Christopher Lee! I wonder if March (Boris Karloff) knew he was dealing with both Dracula *and* Saruman?

@CatPlissken The SGIs of the time gave it a run for its money but yes, great looking computers. I owned a NeXT slab - terrific hardware and OS.

I always thought the NeXTcube was the best looking PC of its era. Dark & edgy in a sea of beige & boring.

@TheCarnacki Bloodborne clearly is the easier, slightly more gothic film for a studio like A24 to try and really cut their teeth on. Elden Ring probably a little further out of reach because of just how fantastical it is.

In 2026 there are literally hundreds of editions of H.P. Lovecraft's works available. Some good, some awful. However, for me, none come close to the four volumes from Arkham House. These are the first editions of the definitive texts, edited by S.T. Joshi.

"… the only charge against her (the Church) is that she is no friend to Caesar—no friend, that is, to any system that seeks to organize society apart from God." Prescient words from R. H. Benson on Europe. From The Friendship of Christ (1912), ch. XII - The Seven Words.

... including Pyramid Head. I'm not wild about the film's look - very CGI. A bit more time should've been invested there. Having said that, I actually enjoyed the film. It's probably the best of the Silent Hill movies, although that's a low bar. Give it a chance. 3 out of 5.

Quick review: it's an adaptation of the Silent Hill 2 game. Angela appears, as does Eddie (however briefly). The former we only get a sketch of her character from the game. Maria is there and gets a bit more time for characterization. All the usual beasties are present...

Tonight's movie - Return to Silent Hill (2026, directed by Christophe Gans). I've not heard good things. The soundtrack (Akira Yamaoka of course) is terrific nonetheless.
