An actual blog entry for the blogathon — Peter Nellhaus looks at a Shadowplay favourite over at the always stimulating Coffee, Coffee and More Coffee — H.G. Clouzot’s perverse and haunting last feature, LA PRISONNIERE.
In addition to that welcome news, we’re happy to bring you an older post by Mimic Hootings, commemorating AN INNOCENT WITCH, the last a late film of Gosho Heinosuke, here. It fits right in, so who cares if it’s five years old? Sink into an atmospheric bit of film writing!
And finally (for now), here’s the first contribution from Limerwrecks, celebrating in song the demise of the Universal MUMMY series with THE MUMMY’S CURSE. And again here and here and here Finally, he rests! Or does he?

Cheers. Just a brief correction: An Innocent Witch, released in 1965, was a late film in Gosho’s career, but it wasn’t his last. He finished up his career a few years later, in 1968. I have seen one of his even later works – Utage, from 1967 – but although it’s a good film, it’s not on the same level.
An Innocent Witch was available to watch on Hulu. Not sure if that’s still the case.
