Have you seen Viy? I adore that film hugely underrated.

Excellent, I loved it. This movie definitely influenced giallo films, with the black gloves on the killer to the brandy everyone seems to be drinking. I can tell it also influenced many modern slasher movies but the difference is this is a really good film, with great acting, sets and cinematography. Its even got a Barrymore in it so how can you go wrong?

I'm sold-cheers for the rec.

Yes, I did. And this movie is not a crap. But Viy is the part of classical Soviet cinema legacy (and, of course, it was based on the strong classical fundament), and it have nothing to do with the modern shit. We cannot consider this movie like a "Russian horror", because it was "Soviet horror".
Well, actually we have here a few pretty strong horror movies made in undergound community, but when it comes to wide screen, the situation is very sad.

it had it's moments but it just took from other movies and was like i had seen this before, this was, in my opinion, a ponderous, badly scripted, poorly thought out affair. Must have looked at my watch about five times after the first half hour.
