Based on
the recommendation of
intelligentrix,
anitar, and
reverendjim, I have now watched
The Company of Wolves (1984). I don't want to comment on it until I've watched it a second time, but I will say that on the first viewing it seemed too horrific (especially the first werewolf transformation) but still utterly spellbinding. Thanks, guys! Perfect recommendation. And it's got me thinking about
Angela Carter, who wrote the screenplay based on stories from her collection of reimagined fairy tales,
The Bloody Chamber (1979).
( Like the subject-line says ... )
