Bathory movie (PETER MARTINOVIC)

noreply@blogger.com (PETER MARTINOVIC) — Mon, 14 Jul 2008 08:42:00 GMT

I‘d like to draw your attention to the newest Slovak movie (well, in fact it is a co-production with mainly Czechs taking a major part in it). It’s called Bathory and it’s about a beautiful noble woman from Slovakia (then the Upper Hungary as a part of the Austrian Empire) who lived in the 17th century. Her name was Erszebet Bathory. She was a rich widow of a war hero, having more wealth...

New Film – Báthory (Taliesin meets the vampires)

noreply@blogger.com (Taliesin_ttlg) — Sun, 13 Jul 2008 07:01:00 GMT

I mentioned the biopic The Countess last year but it seems another Báthory related film has been in production. Entitled Báthory it stars Anna Friel and a trailer is embedded here .My gut reaction is that it is likely rather stylised (not necessarily a bad thing) and the embedded trailer offers a glimpse of the delectable Miss Friel blood bathing.

Nachtmystium – Assassins: Black Meddle Pt.1 Review (IGN)

Tue, 10 Jun 2008 21:52:00 GMT

- When Nachtmystium originally got together in the late 90's, their influences were clear to most Black Metal followers. On early albums Reign of the Malicious and Demise, the Chicago based band cooked together a stew of early Burzum and Bathory inspired Metal that was short on intricacy and overflowing with raw, lo-fi intensity. Sure, the material was worthy of a spot in your CD collection...

Anna Friel, 'Pushing Daisies' (Variety.com)

Thu, 05 Jun 2008 16:23:38 GMT

The facts were these: "Daisies" was indeed a departure for Friel, who has a resume that's short on comedy but includes such heavy roles as a murderess in the biopic "Bathory" and a heroin addict in "Niagara Motel." On the other hand, ABC's darkly whimsical fairy tale -- about a mild-mannered guy who can revive the dead with his first touch and return them to the great beyond with a second --...
