Seems fair after celebrating the birth of Christ to do the same for the Antichrist. Perfectly terrifying with a rousing score and genuinely chilling credibility. 1976.

Bronze votive statuette of a warrior with a shield, wearing a helmet is of Athenian type with the cheek-pieces upturned, and a scale corslet over a short tunic. He originally held a curved sword, of which part survives, in his left hand, and probably had a spear in his right.
#Etruscan (See Alt.)
British Museum Museum number 1847,1101.5 The statuette was cast whole, with the shield and helmet-crest (now missing), made separately. The stance reflects Greek Sculpture of the late 5th century BC, and the style is related to the bronzes of central and northern Etruria. 420BC-400BC Findspot Excavated/Findspot: Falterona, Mount, Perhaps from the site of the Lago degli Idoli. Found in 1836. Europe: Italy: Tuscany: Florence (province): Falterona: Falterona, Mount. The bronzes from Falterona (from J.Swaddling in Bruschetti et al, 2014, pp.417-418): In 1836, after a chance find, many votive bronzes were brought to light in or near a small lake high on Mount Falterona, a peak of the Apennines about 40km east of Florence. It has become known as the ‘Lago degli Idoli’. Over 600 bronze statuettes were found together with more than 2000 other offerings. These included models of animals, tools and weapons, coins and representations of various parts of the body. Many of these objects have since been lost, and others have been dispersed to various collections. The offerings date mainly between 600 and 200 BC. . Like other votives they were dedicated to the gods in thanksgiving or in the hope of favours. No remains of buildings have been found near this remote lakeside sanctuary, which may well have been connected with a cult of healing. The discovery of the deposit is recorded by George Dennis (Dennis, G, Cities and Cemeteries of Etruria, John Murray 1848, pp.108-112), who relates how a shepherdess by chance noticed a bronze figure in the soil. Word of the discovery of the statuette, representing Herakles, soon got out and local villagers were quick to search for more objects, draining the lake to aid their recovery. Other Herakles figures and those of warriors, in addition to weapons, suggest a lakeside sanctuary which may have been a stopping point for soldiers and merchants crossing the Apennines.

Divisive. Are we laughing with or at our horror heroes? Either way it's terrific to see Lugosi under the cape and Chaney still fighting the fur. 1948.

Street Art “Silent Star” by Martín Ron in San Telmo, Buenos Aires 🇦🇷

Painted on a narrow courtyard wall, this mural captures the elegance of early cinema. The portrait of a woman in a wide-brimmed hat, evokes the quiet glamour of the 1920s

The Count hits Victorian London with a vengeance in gruesome Hammer style. Deliciously dark with a terrific cast and marvellous mean streak. 1970.
