I just discovered that a surviving episode of the long thought destroyed BBC horror series LATE NIGHT HORROR has been found! It's a really fun little watch, wonderfully nasty in its tail end. It's a shame the other episodes are lost to us. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mk9k... - ThreadSky

The way those kids unwrap the toy car as one entity unnerved me more than the ending. It was like feral midwich cuckoos.

lmao but say it as lovecraft would

He'd probably not find them eerie, they were white middle-class british kids.

twas then i recognized the sound, as those horrid shades ripped the package--dreams and all--in twain: it was my own heartbeat, sounding the marching drums of war upon the uncanny! oh that i was still among the sindly towers of carcosa, instaed of watching youtube!

It was found in 2016 and is now available on DVD from Kaleidoscope and in colour, if anyone is interested.

I’m just a bit disappointed cos I read the first half of your post and thought it was a second one. Would love another one to turn up!

This is great! Thanks for sharing.

branni.bsky.social•99 days ago

Thank you for this! There's something about older British films for TV that is so unnerving, I'm so glad another bit of lost of media has been found

Ooooh, I watched this last week and liked it quite a bit!

Oh damn!

nicolascurcio.bsky.social•98 days ago

Man you have the best obscure recs, thank you!

nyxknightfall.bsky.social•99 days ago

I believe there is a color treated dvd copy of this floating around as well

William and Mary was remade for Tales of The Unexpected later on and I do wonder if that was a fresh adaptation or used anything from the LNH version.

slimyswampghost.bsky.social•99 days ago

I will check it out! One of the lost episodes of late night horror was a Robert Aickman adaptation, which stings

arajay.com•99 days ago

WOW never heard of this found episode!

clearwind.bsky.social•99 days ago

mini-Alan Bennett, noooooooo

rococorosie.bsky.social•99 days ago
