With an Introduction by David Stuart Davies Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu (1814-1873) was one of the great masters of Victorian of mystery & horror fiction & can be regarded as the father of the modern ghost story In a Glass Darkly (1872) one of his most celebrated volumes purports to be the casebook of Dr Hesselius a pioneer psychologist These five tales represent some of Le Fanu's most accomplished work which rises above the staid conventions of the age Although drawing on Gothic conventions
- the book features both ghosts & vampires
- Le Fanu redefined the parameters of supernatural fiction He had little interest in the crude depiction of other worldly phenomena in order to provide the reader with a pleasurable frisson of fear Le Fanu concern rather lay in the examination of the results of supernatural experience on the psyche of his protagonist in this he paved the way for the work of Henry James & M R James This volume is an indispensable cornerstone of modern horror & remains one of the finest collections of unsettling fiction in the language

Please note this is a region B Blu-ray & will require a region B or region free Blu-ray player in order to play One of the true classics of the noir psychological thriller In a Lonely Place is one of Humphrey Bogart&s finest performances He is almost unbearably intense as Dixon Steele a screenwriter with high standards & a hair trigger temper who finds himself under suspicion when Mildred a hat-check girl he knows is found murdered Immediately he gets an alibi from a neighbour Laurel & equally quickly he recognises that this is a woman who meets his standards the question is as suspicion of his involvement in Mildred&s death continues can he make himself meet hers? This is a wonderful study in trust & suspicion & the limits of love; Bogart&s performance is impressive simply because he is prepared to go well over the limits of our sympathy in the name of emotional truth The scene where he explains imaginatively to a cop & his wife how the murder might have happened is a spine-chilling creepy portrait of amoral artistic brilliance Gloria Grahame is equally fine as the woman who lets herself love him for a while ...
