The Art of Human Sacrifice

Last updated on: August 5, 2013 at 1:41 pm By Peg Aloi

Although it takes place in the days leading up to Beltane, the 1973 film THE WICKER MAN might as well take place at Lammas, which is a traditionally a pagan festival associated with sacrifice. So it's deliciously appropriate that the news of a newly-discovered complete print of this cult cinema classic (and required viewing for all of the pagan persuasion) should be announced in time for this festival of first fruits.

Blackmore’s Night “Dancer and the Moon” (Review)

Last updated on: June 29, 2013 at 8:37 pm By Peg Aloi

This new album is the pair's 13th studio album. Like their previous work, the songs represent an array of styles and genres, while maintaining a unique signature sound that no other rock duo has achieved: a mix of hard rock, medieval and classical -infused art rock, grad-folk, and gypsy stylings. It's safe to say Blackmore's Night shows no sign of slowing down or losing their edge. Read more

Adventures of a Devil-Worshipping Whore, or, Why I Don’t Believe We’re Arguing About What We Believe

Last updated on: June 26, 2013 at 3:31 am By Peg Aloi

It doesn't matter if you call them gods, or myths, or fairy tales, or trees, or rivers, or porcupines, or the fey, or the Good Folk, or archetypes, or hallucinations. What does matter is that our human ability to imagine and manifest a better world is bound up in our willingness to engage with the wholeness of the human experience, and limited only by our own creativity and courage.

Adventures of a Non-Deist, or, Why I Don’t “Believe” in the Gods

Last updated on: June 9, 2013 at 2:14 am By Peg Aloi

I know, I know, it'a fluff. I don't care, I loved this movie! An old family of Louisiana witches faces a battle with their town when the local Christians think the "new girl" is too witchy to be at school with their sweet little Jesus-worshiping Mean Girls. Read more

LORDS OF SALEM: cool look and vibe

Last updated on: May 21, 2013 at 11:12 am By Peg Aloi

I want to see it again before I write a review, but my first response was that I loved the visuals and the vibe of the film very much. But I did think there were some weird holes in the plot and some poorly written dialogue. Still, it's worth a look. Read more
