the anaesthetist is always right (black sunday)

this was a line in a dream horsemouth had yesterday (casting of the runes day - the day on which the action, in m.r. james’s gothic chiller begins). casting of the runes becomes (by the process of film-making) night of the demon - which becomes (by the process of sampling) the hounds of love by kate bush.

except the line in the dream was this morning - horsemouth in his sleep fuddled state has elided the two together.

horsemouth has been contemplating a reissue for the summer - a fifteen years since the making of horsemouth and goatboy (possibly with the additional track - the one from the second phoenix compilation).

outside it is sunny (and yet horsemouth is farting about indoors). yesterday he went for a walk on the common, read the daily torygraph (his parents choice of newspaper), and watched black sunday (aka the mask of satan) - not to be confused with black sabbath - the first mario bava film (losely related to viy by gogol).
