decadent evil is such a crappy movie . i watched this last night as i didn ' t want to have to think about the story . the opposite occurred .
even some american reviewers noted the political overtones of the west - against - iran story line — and the way persians are depicted as decadent , sexually flamboyant and evil in contrast to the noble greeks .

decadent evil ii has a bigger budget , more fx , and more decadence than the original film . i guess in that way it’s everything you could want a sequel to be . somewhere in the writing process , though , they forgot to add in enough of the comedic elements that helped the original film be the dumb fun it was . decadent evil ii isn’t anywhere close to straight horror , but it’s much too straight for a story as inherently dumb and recycled as this one is .

marvin is back . . . after surviving their encounter with the queen vampire morella in decadent evil , sweet vampire sugar ( jill michelle ) and her human boyfriend dex ( daniel lennox ) travel with marvin the homunculus to little rock , arkansas . their plan : to revive marvin’s dead son , the world’s smallest vampire hunter , 3 - foot tall ivan burroughs ( ricardo gil ) with the life – giving blood of the king vampire .
while i’m comparing things , i might as well mention another instance where decadent evil ii shadows the first film . the sequel opens with sugar and dex carrying around ivan’s corpse with the hope of resurrecting him with the elder vampire’s blood and some mumbo jumbo . this leaves ivan out of most of the movie , but — spoiler alert — they do manage to bring him back for the last half - hour or so… exactly mirroring phil fondacaro’s appearance in the 2nd half of decadent evil . that time he was a vampire hunter , now he’s a vampire vampire hunter . functionally different , but in terms of servicing the story and the action of the film , it’s exactly the same . what am i getting at ? take a good long while off between watching the two films , if you do intend to watch them ; they’re much too similar to enjoy back to back .
decadent evil opens with a lengthy recap of the events that occurred in vampire journals before shifting gears entirely , taking us from the gothic backdrop of eastern europe into the sleazy strip clubs of modern los angeles . here , we find that the evil vampire morella has started a coven of her own using the club as a cover . as she nears her 10 , 000th victim , morella grows closer to becoming the invincible queen of the vampires ! decadent evil is a far cry from the glory days of the subspecies series , as ted nicolaou ' s moody sense of style and atmosphere are both sorely missed in light of charles band ' s drier approach to the material . the majority of the characters are blatantly overacted , and there is no sensuality behind any of the gratuitous nudity , making it impossible to pass this off even in the softcore horror genre . only phil fondacaro gets by with a decent performance as he takes on the role of ivan the vampire hunter . overall , a trite and cliche vampire picture in the same vein as bordello of blood , minus the fun . - carl manes i like horror movies

the videos were conceived and produced by javad shamaqdari , a burly , bearded man who is the president’s “art adviser . ” a month ago , that meant demanding an apology from hollywood for “thirty years of insults and accusations against iran . ” shamaqdari cited the 2006 film “300 , ” about the battle between the spartans and the evil , decadent persians , and last year’s “the wrestler , ” in which mickey rourke grapples with an old nemesis called the ayatollah , who tries to choke rourke’s character with an iranian flag . on the campaign , though , shamaqdari’s role was like that of an american communications director .
this movie was good very entertaining for a movie that wasn ' t that much to make . jessica morris is a great actress and jill michelle wished she made more movies as well . however i don ' t like the fact that amazon only has dacadent evil part 1 for rent only .
after surviving their encounter with the queen vampire morella in decadent evil , sweet vampire sugar ( jill michelle ) and her human boyfriend dex ( daniel lennox ) travel with marvin the homunculus to little rock , arkansas . their plan : to revive marvin ' s dead son , the famous vampire hunter ivan burroughs ( ricardo gil ) with the life - giving blood of the king vampire . on a quest to locate the king vampire , sugar and dex are drawn into a coven of the wicked creatures that are using a local strip club as cover . when sugar is kidnapped for sacrifice to the king vampire , dex manages to revive ivan as one of the living dead to assist in the rescue efforts .
the second half of the book takes us on a tour of elagabalus ' reception through the ages . needless to say , a sex - mad evil oriental tyrant did not get a good press , whether dressed up by german academics (
the late revenge of the semites on greco - roman culture , whose chains it had silently worn for centuries
) or french psychiatrists (
as the victim of a neuropathia dominated by a quasi - unconscious exhibitionism , he would probably have ended in dementia
) . but for the decadent movement , as icks recounts , the worm turned and elagabalus would become an alluring androgyne and an artist :
for artist he had been ! the greatest of his time and many others , without doubt .
sugar and dex have survived morella ' s wrath , but now it is up to them to stop another foul vampire lord from collecting the last remaining souls he needs in order to grant himself immortality , using a sleazy strip club as his front for luring in new victims . like the previous film , decadent evil 2 is utter garbage , and barely passable even as a cheesy b - movie . some may say that the insufferable characters , unimaginative plot , and artless direction should all be expected from a full moon film of the time , but charles band generally brings some fun form of exploitation to even the worst of his features . the sex doesn ' t sell here , and neither does the horror . - carl manes i like horror movies
full moon has a long history with the vampire film , including the excellent subspecies series ( well , the two excellent subspecies films , the one alright one , and the mediocre last one ) , as well as the hilariously - rice - esque vampire journals . the first decadent tried to revive this , but was mostly blah , coming nowhere near the peaks of the earlier vampire films . the sequel , however , is…
our story picks up shortly after the events of decadent evil , with the vampire sugar ( jill michelle ) and her human boyfriend dex ( daniel lennox ) on the run with the caged homunculus marvin in tow . also along for the ride is the corpse of phil fondacaro’s character ivan ( played here by ricardo gil ) , stuffed into a suitcase . i guess being the corpse of a three - foot - tall vampire hunter has its benefits . sugar and dex are tracking down the elder vampire that will take the place of morella ( see de1 ) as leader of the vampire bloodline , and their search has brought them to good ol’ littlerock , ar . and where might this bloodthirsty fiend of the night be hiding his dusty bones ? in a strip club , naturally .
for this uk release film2000 added the word dead to the title , probably in an attempt to sell more copies . this is decadent evil 2 and is a sequel . two survivors from the first film , a vampire and her boyfriend , plan to revive a dead vampire hunter . this is an entertaining and passable vampire yarn . the plot makes sense sort of and the actors take the job seriously , something which is a main feature of all fullmoon releases , which this is in the usa . low budget but very professional . the expositions make sure the audience know what ' s going on and it ' s clever that a vampire girl doesn ' t want to kill her human boyfriend . there ' s a few tense moments as well as some humour too and we see some pretty ladies in the strip bar . the dvd package includes over an hour of extras .
page ' s choreography works seamlessly in combination with the marius petipa original , which dates back to 1890 . jarkko lehmus and eve mutso make for a regal king and queen protecting their child against the evil fairies who gatecrash their party . in the wedding reception finale , their dancing , which mixes traditional ballet with fiery tango kicks , is magnificent . i would have liked to have seen more of them .
ultra low budget horror sequel . having survived their near - deadly encounter with the evil queen vampire morella in the first film , sweet - natured vampire sugar ( jill michelle ) and her human boyfriend dex ( daniel lennox ) travel with marvin the homunculus to little rock , arkansas , where they hope to track down and destroy the head vampire and use its blood to revive marvin ' s dead son .
the stylistic challenge with sleeping beauty is that it has to span a century , packing in everything from the pricking of aurora ' s finger ( brilliantly enacted thanks to a flowering cactus wheeled onstage by the evil fairy carabosse and her grotesque , egg - headed offspring ) to the kiss that brings her back to life , all the while retaining its coherence . this production doesn ' t always succeed in that .
at the end of cinderella the ugly sisters crawled off , blinded and rejected . in sleeping beauty , the evil fairy carabosse may say sorry to the king and queen , but it ' s under duress and she doesn ' t look like she really means it . once again , page has succeeded in creating a festive family ballet which may be all gloss and glamour on the outside , but not far beneath darkness dances .
marvin is a nasty , horny homunculus , part human / part reptile , who stands twelve inches tall . and lives alone , trapped inside a bird cage . once completely human , marvin was turned into a homunculus after his lover morella , a 100 year old vengeful vampire , learned of his betrayal with another human . set at the âmeat marketâ ? , a decadent strip club , the male clientele unknowingly become victims of morella and her sexy young vampire strippers , sugar and spyce . as morella executes her final kills to become the most powerful vampire of all plans his ultimate revenge against her .
i watched this movie without having seen the first
decadent evil
, and they show you a 2 or 3 minute recap at the beginning of the movie , and that was enough for me to understand the story leading up to that point . the movie is about a sweet vampire named candy and her boyfriend dex , who are traveling with marvin the homoculus and marvin ' s dead son ( died in the first movie ) to arkansas , to track down the head vampire and to get his blood so they can revive marvin ' s dead son . they end up tracking him to a small town ' s strip club , where they take jobs ( dex as a janitor and candy as a dancer ) to infiltrate the vampire clan to find out who ' s the head vampire . the movie is not bad , not much happens though . and it ends up turning into more of a mystery movie than any horror movie . but , none the less it still entertains . this movie is not for everyone . if you enjoy b movies or have seen other full moon movies you should enjoy this one . if you ' re seeing this only cause the plot is centered around a strip club you shouldn ' t be too dissapointed in that aspect . but , if you like
horror
in your horror movies you should probably keep looking . the only real horror in the movie are the vampires .
and do you know what “the world” is to me ? shall i show it to you in my mirror ? this world : a monster of energy , without beginning , without end…as force throughout , as a play of forces and waves of forces…a sea of forces flowing and rushing together , eternally changing and eternally flooding back with tremendous years of recurrence…out of the play of contradictions back to the joy of concord , still blessing itself as that which must return eternally , as a becoming that knows no satiety , no disgust , no weariness ; this my dionysian world of the eternally self - creating , the eternally self - destroying , this mystery world of the two - fold voluptuous delight , my “beyond good and evil , ” without goal , unless the joy of the circle is itself a goal… . this world is the will to power—and nothing besides ! and you yourselves are also this will to power—and nothing besides !
ahmadinejad seems to delight in his role as a diplomatic provocateur—dismissing the holocaust as “a myth , ” calling for the end of israel’s “zionist regime , ” and bragging about the progress being made in iran’s nuclear program . he is fifty - two and tiny—about five feet tall—and very thin . he wears a perpetual five - day growth of beard , a sign of devoutness . his eyes are unusually small and black , like raisins , and deep - set . from a distance , this can make him seem remote , even blind . in front of large groups , ahmadinejad is demagogic and unsmiling—an unhappy warrior—pointing his finger and shaking his fists . in more intimate settings , he projects an almost inappropriate joyousness . he speaks in circular loops about good and evil , east and west , god and man , but in his meandering riffs , always elusive in their logic , there is something chauncey gardinerish , as if he were in over his head .
here , apparently , nietzsche’s doctrine of the feeling of power has become more than an observation on the natural history and psychology of morals . the “teaching” reaches into the heart of life , and it says something absolute about obeying and commanding . but what is being obeyed , on the cosmological level , and what is being commanded ? at this point , zarathustra passes on a secret told to him by life itself : “behold [ life says ] , i am that which must overcome itself again and again…and you too , enlightened man , are only a path and a footstep of my will : truly , my will to power walks with the feet of your will to truth . ” we see here that a principle , will to power , is embodied by the human being’s will to truth , and we may imagine it taking other forms as well . reflecting on this insight , for example , zarathustra claims to have solved “the riddle of the hearts” of the creator of values : “you exert power with your values and doctrines of good and evil , you assessors of values… . but a mightier power and a new overcoming grow from out of your values…” that mightier power growing in and through the embodiment and expression of human values is will to power .

mj simpson presents : the longest - running single - author film site on the web , est . 2002 .
from the man who brought us all those great straight - to - video empire movies in the 1980s and all those great straight - to - video full moon movies in the 1990s , comes the first title from his new straight - to - dvd company , wizard entertainment . ( i must just say that , while ' wizard ' probably isn ' t an adjective in the states , here in the uk this company sounds remarkably jolly and delightfully exciting :
i say , you chaps ! this entertainment is absolutely wizard !
anyway . . . )
is a curious title to lead with . it ' s not really typical charles band fare , lacking both killer dolls and flying heads , although it does have a sort of puppet monster . three other films are in post - production as this one hits the streets -
- and all sound more like what one would expect ( the last one seems to have been shot pretty much back - to - back with this film as the crew is largely identical ) . but of course , each film has to stand or fall on its own merits .
the other curious thing about this movie is the way that the publicity and packaging play up the character of ' marvin the horny homunculus ' , who is really a subplot in the film itself , and make little if any mention about the main story which involves vampires and would , one would therefore think , be more marketable . there are plenty of dad - can - i - borrow - the - camcorder ' films ' out there which have shown that some people will watch any old piece of crap so long as it features a sexy woman with fangs .
) and her two acolytes sugar ( jill michelle ) and spyce ( raelyn hennessee ) who both work at a lapdancing club in la . at the club , spyce picks up bruce ( roger toussaint ) and his rather reluctant girlfriend tami ( april gilbert ) ; bruce can ' t believe his luck when spyce takes them back to a big old mansion and it looks like he ' s in for a threesome , then when morella appears his eyes go wide as dinner plates and for a moment he is the happiest guy in the world - until she rips open his throat and drinks down the spurting blood .
) . such a relationship does not meet with morella ' s approval of course and it also raises a bunch of moral questions that are never touched upon . presumably sugar also requires human blood to survive and therefore her only chance of happiness with dex is to continue as a serial killer and make him her accomplice . however , at the moment dex is unaware of his girlfriend ' s haemavorous habits because her fangs only become visible when she gets hungry .
according to vampire lore ( we are told ) , the most important blood is the first spurt of arterial blood after the victim ' s throat is slit , the ' primal blood . ' any vampire who consumes 10 , 000 spurts of primal blood will reach a new level of being which will make them not just immortal but actually indestructible . over the past century or so morella has consumed 9 , 997 primal blood spurts - she keeps them listed in a damn great book - so after bruce and tami she needs just three more to win the prize . spyce later meets up with a guy she met in a chatroom although typically ' studboy ' turns out to be an overweight , middle - aged guy ( john f schaffer , who was in a great - sounding martial arts movie called
movie ! ) rather than the hunky young athlete which he claimed to be . spyce doesn ' t care because all she wants is his blood but when morella tracks them down and discovers that she has missed out on the primal blood she is none too happy , although spyce makes up for this by bringing home a hooker to be victim number 9 , 998 . ( the idea of drinking down spurting fluid has an obvious sexual connotation which isn ' t explored at all , though that may be a good thing . )
the other interesting aspect of morella is that she keeps a homunculus in a bird cage - you see how much of the story we have covered before ' marvin ' becomes relevant ? this is an ugly little red humanoid , about 12 - 18 inches tall , wearing a sort of sacking smock , who grunts a lot ; he is described as
a tiny , prehistoric human , half - reptile like all men .
marvin is a rather stiff and immobile rod puppet , although he does have blinking eyes , created by ( and voiced by ) christopher bergschneider (
) . he was , we learn , morella ' s former lover but she is such a man - hater that she turned him into the form we see now ( apparently you can make someone a homunculus using homunculus blood - this will become relevant later ) .
but here he ' s working for the other side , lugging around a bag full of garlic powder , wooden stakes and other assorted vampire - hunting paraphernalia . fondacaro really is one of the best short actors out there . like warwick davis or the late david rappaport , he ' s an actor who happens to be short rather than a short guy who acts . his presence in any cast is always a bonus .
burroughs explains to dex what sugar really is and the two of them head over to the mansion . dex wants to sneak his girlfriend away , spyce wants to curry favour with morella and morella wants a brace of kills to hit that magical number - and ivan and dex will do nicely , thank you . complicating matters slightly is the fact that ivan recognises marvin as . . . well , i ' ll leave some plot for you to find out yourselves .
isn ' t bad . the direction , production design ( by the brilliantly named elvis strange :
) are all competent without being exceptional - and in these days of shot - on - video cheapies competency is a major plus - point . the blood effects are pretty good and there is one digital effect towards the end that stands out because , well , you would expect more of them in a charles band picture . all the actors acquit themselves well apart from the wooden actress who plays the hooker . james sale (
is that there really isn ' t very much of it . the running time is 70 minutes but that includes a staggering eight minutes of very , very slow end title crawl which is really a bit of a cheat , especially as there is no additional footage woven into it or tacked on the end as a bonus . the film starts with about five minutes of voice - over and stock footage from
explaining how the vampires got to la , but that is entirely superfluous to the actual plot . without the prologue , nobody would be saying
wait a minute . . . vampires in la ? how the hell did they get there ?
the opening titles run for about three or four minutes and the opening scene in the strip club is about five minutes of ' atmosphere ' with a few lines of characterisation from bruce and tami . writer / director c courtney joyner (
( and incorporating several brief stock shots of night - time la , at least one of which is repeated as a distinctive car drives past ) . with a tight budget and only six days to shoot the piece , presumably the script - by ' august white ' ( a pseudonym for domonic muir :
) , from a story by band - was deliberately kept down to about 45 - 50 pages but it ' s still a bit dodgy to market a film this length as a feature . on the other hand , the dvd format gives plenty of room for extras including a short ' making of ' - talking heads and a little behind - the - scenes footage - directed by jethro rothe - kushell ( associate producer on the feature ) and entitled , in defiance of punctuation rules ,
there is also a message from band himself in which he explains about wizard entertainment and his plans for the rest of 2005 , which he cheerfully admits might slightly confuse people buying this dvd a couple of years from now . ( curiously this consists of a mostly static shot of band in front of two posters depicting a range of full moon titles , but there are a couple of close - ups that were obviously shot separately because there is a reproduction poster for
' how to make films ' package . plus there is a ' blooper reel ' which is really just some unused takes ; i imagine that there ' s very little time to joke around when you ' re shooting a movie , even a shortish one , in less than a week . and there is a brief look at the in - production
so there ' s plenty of stuff on the disc , but i can ' t help feeling that some viewers would prefer slightly more of it to constitute the actual movie . why not at least stick the blooper reel and / or the preview of the next wizard movie in among the end credits to make them worth sitting through ?
. but bear in mind that this was shot in less than a week on a minuscule budget . this is no
) . it does at least have a story , it isn ' t packed with tedious softcore sex scenes and fondacaro is as great as ever . but it ' s hard to see this movie converting any new fans to the work of charlie band . then again , maybe it ' s not intended to . band has been making movies long enough ( and has made enough of them ! ) that he knows his audience and the freedom of internet distribution means that he can target them directly and accurately .
as for the marketing emphasis on ' marvin the horny homunculus ' , that is probably due to his imminent appearance as an action figure . his ' horniness ' , presumably derived from years of sexual frustration in his cage , only really comes to the fore in the final gag shot and in a sequence when he escapes from his cage and finds the hooker strapped to a bed . shots of this creepy puppet licking the girl ' s nipples are the only real ' horror ' part of the story . ( an unfortunate continuity error in a conversation between marvin and ivan means that the homunculus ' hands , which are fixed to the cage , are positioned differently in the forward and reverse shots . )
and the other titles . let ' s have some killer toys , some flying , disembodied heads , maybe a few stop - motion effects and about ten minutes more of actual footage in each film please .

sugar the good vampire , her boyfriend dex , and marvin the homunculous attempt to hunt down a powerful vampire in order to resurrect marvin ' s dead son .
i didn ' t ask for much with this film . . . i just wanted it to be better than the first . and it wasn ' t . so the good ? they sort of change genres to make this film more of a mystery . sugar and dex are looking for the new clan leader vampire to use its blood to bring their vampire hunter buddy from the first film back to life . there ' s some attempt to keep this a mystery to the audience by supplying several suspects . that ' s good . this is also a true sequel in that it does logically follow the first film and references the few plot points that had ; some of these sequels abandon continuity altogether so i give props if they keep it . …
i wanted to take a look at this film because it was shot in and around little rock , ar , where i live . it ' s terrible . i remember full moon movies being terrible but this is really terrible . i will forget this even existed in a few hours and will be all the better for it .
a nice vampire and her boyfriend seek to revive a dead midget vampire hunter to please the dead guy ' s homunculous father . this requires them to get jobs at a strip club and find out who the head vampire is ( a la lost boys ) . all of which is basically and excuse to show lots of strippers conducting their business .
all the films mentioned by name in kim newman ' s definitive encyclopedia of horror films , nightmare movies . well worth a read . …
update ! i guess that the number 3300 is the maximum for a letterboxd list . whenever i add some new movie…

the makers of this film couldn ' t decide what kind of film they wanted . the first 10 mins of my copy had exerts from
vampire journals
. so this film must be some kind of continuation , but they needed to give you 10mins of the previous film to bring you up to speed . next we get to the present film . it started off really good . a guy takes his girl to a strip joint . she ' s reluctant to be there . a stripper ( a vampire ) comes over and offers her a lap - dance - and this is where it got better , the stripper is able to seduce her and they all go back to the stipper ' s joint - which happens to be a mansion . again the woman ' s reluctant but the stripper has some power to turn her on . and then suddenly all of this is taken away . another vampire ( the ' queen ' ) shows up . bits the guy . the girlfriend runs off , grabbed by the queen who feeds on her . suddenly they ' ve gone from having a sexually charged willing victim to just a victim . and the vampire bites her and less than five seconds later she ' s done . what happened to their power to seduce their victim ? then there ' s a puppet vampire ! one of the vampire strippers falls in love for a guy she works down at the club with - a very over - used plot vehicle . the guy she works with teams up with a midget vampire hunter . what a confused mess .
cheesy , but keeps you watching to see what happens next ! the ending is crazy and well worth waiting for ! gotta love sexy female vampires . : )
a female vampire leads a covey of vampire stripper babes . they get their victims from the strip club , one line , and call girls . a midget van helsing , who knows the ins and outs of this particular blood line , is after them . one of the vampires has a human bf that she doesn ' t kill . there is also marvin , a weird foot tall bloody creature who looks like something out of the puppet master series . the first kill involves a real classy guy who takes his reluctant girl friend to a strip joint and gets her a lap dance . the movie is so corny it is funny . a good one to watch stoned . not much horror . hardcore porn star harmony rose provides the nudity in a weird scene with marvin .
only reason i ' m writing a review is because i ' m a fan of the subspecies films and the spin - off vampire journals . . at the beginning of the film you ' re shown a quick run down of what happened in vampire journals and then a hour of boredom . . i don ' t see how this is a tie - in to the other films . three lady vampire strippers , a midget vampire hunter and a tiny creature named marvin who ' s kept in a cage . that basically sums it up . . but the only cool thing was marvin ( a creepy puppet which is typical in a charles band film ) . . if you ' re a fan of the subspecies series , this crappy tie - in will dissapoint you . .
exquisite ambiance . however the cinematography , at times , lacked boobs . in addition , the acting fell short of what i expected giving the long standing tradition of the genre .
this movie isn ' t worth the time it would take me to write a proper review of it .
this has got to be one of the most forgettable movies ever . i rented it a few months ago and watched it several times ( in my location there ' s no cable or broadcast tv ) .

the hit american movie “300” has angered iranians who say the greeks - vs - persians . . .
the hit american movie “300” has angered iranians who say the greeks - vs - persians action flick insults their ancient culture and provokes animosity against iran .
“hollywood declares war on iranians , ” blared a headline in tuesday’s edition of the independent ayende - no newspaper .
the movie , which raked in $ 70 million in its opening weekend , is based on a comic - book fantasy version of the battle of thermopylae in 480 b . c . , in which a force of 300 spartans held off a massive persian army at a mountain pass in greece for three days .
in iran , the movie hasn’t opened and probably never will , given the government’s restrictions on western films , though one paper said bootleg dvds were already available .
still , it touched a sensitive nerve . javad shamghadri , cultural adviser to iranian president mahmoud ahmadinejad , said the united states tries to “humiliate” iran in order to reverse historical reality and “compensate for its wrongdoings in order to provoke american soldiers and warmongers” against iran .
the movie comes at a time of increased tensions between the united states and iran over the persian nation’s nuclear program and the iraq war .
but aside from politics , the film was seen as an attack on persian history , a source of pride for iranians across the political spectrum , including critics of the current islamic regime .
state - run television has run several commentaries the past two days calling the film insulting and has brought on iranian film directors to point out its historical inaccuracies .
“the film depicts iranians as demons , without culture , feeling or humanity , who think of nothing except attacking other nations and killing people , ” ayende - no said in its article tuesday .
“it is a new effort to slander the iranian people and civilization before world public opinion at a time of increasing american threats against iran , ” it said .
iran’s biggest circulation newspaper , hamshahri , said “300” is “serving the policy of the u . s . leadership” and predicted it will “prompt a wave of protest in the world . . . . iranians living in the u . s . and europe will not be indifferent about this obvious insult . ”

this is the final ballet in the trilogy of reimagined fairytales that ashley page has introduced to scottish ballet , and although sleeping beauty doesn ' t have the sass of cinderella , or the surrealist charm of the nutcracker , it ' s another surefire hit in the company ' s repertoire .
the story gallops along , from the christening of aurora in the 1830s when the curse is put upon her , to the 1940s chi - chi glamour of her wedding reception 100 years later . in between , there is her birthday party in the palace hothouse , in which claire robertson ' s solo as the innocent , intense 16 - year - old princess is the highlight , and the enchanted forest where our dashing prince encounters snow white , cinderella , belle ( from beauty and the beast ) and red riding hood in search of their suitors ( don ' t worry , they don ' t have to look for long ) .

his short story has been longlisted for short story day africa’s terra incognita and his film felistas fable took home awards for best feature film , film of the year , best screenplay and best actor last friday at the uganda film festival ( uff ) awards .
we have organized a special preview screening of the felistas fable , on 10th december , at tilapia centre in bunga , starting at 7pm . come watch and give us your comments ! the final cut will be ready by january , then we shall start to think of a premier .
the last 15 or so months have been sweet ones for ugandan writer dilman dila . from having his short story a killing in the sun nominated for the commonwealth short story contest last year , to having his movie the felistas fable sweeping the uganda film festival awards gala a few weeks ago , it has been a great time for the writer .
but first , we must concentrate on making the felistas fable . it’s not a smooth ride . it’s full of bumps and rapids and cliffs you could fall off and break your leg . we are already behind schedule , and we have to work extra hard next week to get back on schedule and finish within the days we have set .
this is a public apology to mathew nabwiso and tibba murungi kabugu , whose reputation is suffering because of a misconception over a video i uploaded on youtube , a few months ago . the video is being taken out of context . it is not porn , or a sex tape . i appeal to all media houses and tabloids in the country to desist from spreading the lies around this video . mathew and tibba in a scene in the felistas fable .
i already wrote about it earlier , in the post “ i suffer to entertain you . ” but after one week of trying to make the film , the felistas fable , i just can’t help but to write about it again . the pains of film making — you go through a lot of pain to raise money for the film , and you go through worse pain to make the film . you will think you are ready , but you reach on the shooting day and you realize you are not ready at all .
dilman dila recently published a collection of speculative short stories , a killing in the sun . he was long listed for the bbc radio playwriting competition ( 2014 ) , shortlisted for the prestigious commonwealth short story prize ( 2013 ) , twice long listed for the short story day africa prize , and nominated for the 2008 million writers awards . his films include the masterpiece , what happened in room 13 ( 2007 ) , and the narrative feature , the felistas fable ( 2013 ) , which was nominated for best first feature at amaa 2014 , and which won four major awards at the uganda film festival 2014 . more of his life and works is available at his website urltoken .
so , i know how much you love my work , and i know you ' ll love it more if you know how i made it . i ' ll give you a tutorial through the whole process . you get the storyboards and director notes . plus download access to an . mp4 of the film . plus i ' ll answer any question about making it . plus , as thank you for backing me , you get an ebook with screenplays of my two feature films , her broken shadow ( a scifi ) and the felistas fable ( a fairy tale comedy ) plus , all rewards above .
this film explores the plight of a woman suffering from fistula , a damning ailment associated with early sex and homosexuality , and notorious for breaking its victims’ self esteem because they are incontinent and reek a foul odour . like thousands of other ugandan women living with the disease , felistas is a social outcast .
i first met both mathew and tibba when i was working for the hostel , a short lived stint that lasted only two months or so , late in 2011 . i saw they were fine actors , and since i had a feature film project , the felistas fable , i invited them to audition for parts in the movie . i was glad to work with them in this film . it is not a pornographic film . however , there involved a sex scene between the two characters that they would both be portraying . this scene was not simply for the sake of having graphic displays of sex , but it was a plot device and it was also for comic purposes .
dilman dila is a ugandan writer and film - maker . his short stories have appeared in several online and print magazines , and book anthologies . one of these stories , ' homecoming ' , received a nomination at the 2008 million writers awards : notable online stories of 2007 . he makes documentary films to give voice to forgotten and oppressed minorities . his fiction films are redolent of the african oral storytelling tradition . his short film , what happened in room 13 won him accolades at various international film festivals . currently , he is making his first feature length fiction film , the felistas fable , which will be finished in the middle of 2012 . for more about his life and works , please visit urltoken
the short story , courtesy of the film’s website , reads – felistas is cursed . she stinks . no one can stand to stay near her . this causes her to separate from her family and live as a lonely outcast in an abandoned house . but one day , a witchdoctor finds a solution . a cry - baby man can inherit the smell from her . felistas is hesitant to grab the opportunity , because she does not want another person to live through the pain that she has , but she longs to reunite with her husband and child . so she kidnaps such a man , dan , who is a virgin desperate to get married . however , dan recently got a job that makes him very rich . this attracts the attention of kate , a gold - digging woman who he has wooed for a long time , and that of a corrupt cop , jomba , who frames him for murder in an extortion scheme . as felistas races against time to deliver dan to the witch and win back her husband’s love , it turns into a high - energy chase with a voluptuous kate and a trigger - happy jomba hot on her tail .

i wrote that script , about a woman who cannot get married because she has aids . it’s very similar to the felistas fable in that a mother is determined to keep a child from getting married , and that i came up with these ideas about the same time should say a lot about my state of mind at that time . i can’t even remember what it was but well , even men at one point in their lives get scared that they will never get married . with women , when they reach thirty and are still single , they panic . with men , it especially happens after a break up . or after they catch their girlfriend cheating . one or the other must have happened to me at that time and i was terrified i would not find a girl — but now i have , and so in the next few years , the stories i write will reflect my current state of mind .
that aside — soon after felistas , i will try to raise funds for this aids script and offer namanda the role . the last few days i’ve worked with her revived that screenplay in my head . it’s something that i had forgotten about — one of those you write , and put in the drawers , and other things come up and you forget it — but i will pull it off the drawer and dust it off and rewrite it and push for it to be made . hopefully , next year , i will be shooting it .
“the emp , the electromagnetic pulse that accompanied the flash of light knocked out all the equipment in the lab . the lasers , the light , the cameras , everything . only the ups - backed alarms kept blaring in the darkness that reigned between the flash and the restoration of emergency power . then when the power was restored , i looked into the photorium …”
i thought retelling that european fairytale in my home country would not only take us back to a time in african history that is lost forever , but also be symbolic of the foreign forces that destroyed that past and shaped this present . nowhere is this evident as in the quest of african women to attain a beauty as defined by european colonialists . they look at their curly hair and dark skins , and then at the women on tv , and they don’t feel beautiful . they spend a great percentage of their income to make their hair look like that of white people , to bleach their skin using creams and chemicals that are expensive , addictive , dangerous to health and cause permanent skin damage . the resultant ailments have a high cost of treatment , and reduce labor hours ( the women cannot stay long in the sun ) and productivity . some men , the most famous being didier drogba , have started making their hair long and straight too . monsters do not exist in our world anymore , but there are millions of african women who , after they develop fistula , a condition that gives them an unbearable smell , lose their marriages and cannot find love . they are forced to live as outcasts . i had such a woman in mind while making the felistas fable .
