In the Early Hours

Sometimes you have to stay up late. You’re not always sleepy. Then you get hungry, and while eating something you found in the fridge at 1 o’clock in the morning you turn on the TV to find that just started is an old British movie, about which the cable channel had this to say:

“I Don’t Want To Be Born”

Bizarre horror starring Joan Collins and Eileen Atkins, 1976. Chiller in which an ex-stripper cursed by a dwarf gives birth to an enormous havoc-wreaking, satanic infant.

It sounded too good to miss. And I tried watching it, but it was unwatchable. I was there for 20 minutes or so, by which time the baby had drowned the babysitter. You may find this difficult to believe, but Joan Collins was the ex-stripper, and Eileen Atkins was an Italian nun.

I've put a "Links" list on here, by the way, over on the right hand side ..... I've been meaning to do it for a while, but had to learn how to do it, and kept putting it off. It's done now.
