Lost Souls Lost Souls
Sometimes the worst nightmares happen in broad daylight! An utterly gripping novel for ... more
fans of Peter James and Mark Billingham  from a
rising star in the crime genre.  A woman is found
brutally murdered on a quiet housing estate  her
tongue and eyes ritualistically gouged out. 
Children are being abducted and then returned to
their families days later without a scratch and
with no knowledge or where they have been - or
with whom.  If DC Laura McGanity thought moving
from London to sleepy Lancashire was taking the
easy option then she can think again. Already
worried about uprooting young son Bobby to follow
her reporter boyfriend Jack Garrett back to his
hometown  she must quickly get a handle on these
mystifying cases terrifying the people of Blackley
- without putting the local officers' noses out of
joint.  Meanwhile  restless Jack is itching to get
back to his writing and the cases provide the
perfect opportunity to do so. But as he delves
deeper into them  he finds murky connections
between the two crimes and skeletons buried in the
most unlikely of closets.Most astonishing of all 
he meets a man who 'paints' the future - terrible
events come to him in vivid dreams which he then
puts onto canvas.This 'precognition' is not so
much a gift as a curse and to Jack it becomes
terrifyingly that many people  including his own
family  are in danger!

Lost Souls - Spaccanapoli Lost Souls - Spaccanapoli
Coming across like a Neapolitan Fairport Convention, Spaccanapoli's roots lie in an even ... more
earlier age, harking back to the pre-Christian
rites of Dionysus. The band sprouted from the
remains of the communistically inclined Grupo
Operario E Zezi (a worker's collective ensemble,
formed in 1974), with some of their old repertoire
still surviving on this album. The musical concept
was based on the "zeza", an
eating-drinking-dancing street party, packed with
theatre, song and salami. Spaccanapoli share
direct influences from the post-1970s
industrialisation (mostly Alfa Romeo car
factories) that had spread out like a canker
around the foothills of Vesuvius. The "new" band
is named after an ancient part of Naples which has
a twin existence as spruced-up tourist site and
vibrant cultural heartland. Even though possessed
of a folk-rock attack, their sound is resolutely
acoustic, packed with pipes, flutes, guitars,
accordion, jaw harp, double bass, rattling
percussion and exuberant vocal chorus. The
unhinged carousing of "O Mare" features clarinet,
fiddle and dishevelled brass, leading into the
more liturgically flavoured "Sant' Anastasia" and
"Vesuvio". It's back to the rollicking spirit for
the title track, alternating between a relay of
solo singers and hearty chorus, then hurtling
towards the final knees-up of "Moezzo A Festa" and
"O Rinillo O Rinello". --Martin Longley

In an about-face that will infuriate technophiles, this group of dance revisionists ... more
celebrate guitars and "real instruments" in the

their mate Jim Goodwin first had a hit with the
disco-charged "Ain't No Love (Ain't No Use)", but
disillusionment with the Manchester scene set in,
so they picked up guitars and formed Doves--a band
determined to infuse raw emotion into music. From
instrumental opener "Firesuite"--which showcases
their rumbling, restrained guitar firepower--to
the tumbling acoustic shanty "Sea Song", the Latin
guitar lines of "The Man Who Told Everything", the
balmy Technique-era New Order rocker "Catch The
Sun" and the aqueous, soaring "Rise", none of the
album's 11 tracks bear any real resemblance to
each other. Doves have produced an outstanding
debut album in Lost Souls, alternately melancholy
and uplifting, sparkling darkly with charged
atmospherics. --Mike Pattenden

Full review

Comparisons are odious, but unfortunately this film invites them. ‘The Exorcist’ set the standard for films about demonic possession. ‘The Omen’ is the classic about the return of Satan to claim his inheritance and ‘Lost Souls’ wants the best of both worlds.

It begins with the botched exorcism of a psychiatric patient. During the exorcism the name of the Anti-Christ is revealed to Maya (Winona Ryder) and the film follows her attempts to convince him of the coming Transformation which will occur on his thirty third birthday. The plot then, is not too complex.

The real strength of this film is in the characterisation of the main players. Winona Ryder gives a superb performance as a girl teetering on the edge of madness; you can almost feel the pressure. Similarly, Ben Chaplin, who plays Peter Kelson, the soon to be Anti-Christ, gives a bravura display. Initially sceptical, as the plot unwinds, you can almost taste his growing fear and panic. John Hurt, as a priest, is in there as well, but spends most of the time catatonic. Still, it pays the rent I suppose.
The ending is original and surprising, so I’ll say no more about it.

Where this film scores highly is in its realism. It is thoughtful. It doesn’t rely on projectile vomit or gratuitous decapitations; instead it has people reacting as they might really react when told that they are the spawn of Satan. The lighting is atmospheric to the point where you wonder if they can make a decent light bulb in the U. S., but the suspense builds nicely.

Had I never seen the two films that I mentioned, then I think that ‘The Lost Souls’ might be up there in the top ten, however where it really loses out is in the soundtrack. Both ‘The Exorcist’ and ‘The Omen’ had tremendous, rip-roaring, unforgettable soundtracks, which added immeasurably to the suspense and anticipation, but ‘The Lost Souls’ has nothing comparable.

An excellent film then, but it misses out on greatness.

Lost the plot
Review of Lost Souls (DVD) by maxshreck

Advantages: cinematography
Disadvantages: everything else

Ironically for an industry so clearly embarrassed by the genre that spawned enfant terribles such as Hooper and Romero, Hollywood has a long-held tradition of cannibalising itself, with every conceivable cinematic and generic theme being constantly explored, revisited, updated and rehashed. In some instances these revised texts are successful in breathing new life into a tired old formula, the most obvious example being he recent glut of horror movies ...
...its particular blend of post-modern irony and prerequisite lashings of blood, but it didn’t take long for a succession of sequels and blatant rip-offs to follow this slasher into the multiplexes. It’s popularity proved a couple of things; people enjoy watching beautiful 90210-types being brutally butchered by a masked maniac (no surprises there) and that horror has some of the most loyal fans of any genre. Audiences flocked to The Blair Witch Project ... Read review

Good film
Review of Lost Souls (DVD) by pulp

Advantages: Scary
Disadvantages: Not a surprice ending

...best out of those three. Lost Souls, is a modern horror movie which has all the elements of the classic moments. Many shocking seconds, where the audience will break the back of their seats. A serious and gripping amosphere was build up straight away during the first 15 mins of the film. It is very much a flim to do with exorcism and the Evil. Driving out evil spirits by prayers, sometime it worked, sometime it doesn't, and have the opposite effect. ...
...would! Because of all that, the whole film is full of tension and very very scary moments. Plus a great soundtrack from 'Gomez', perfectly directed and casted. Winona Ryder's performence seems to be good, but really all she has to do is being herself in her usual roles. I am not a big fan of the endings of this sort of films from the pass experience with the 'Exorcist' and 'Stigmata', and 'Lost Souls' is the same. The rest is brillient. Go see ... Read review

How the Hell did this Movie make it to the Cinema
Review of Lost Souls (DVD) by gcooper

Advantages: Nice Trailer, actually more promising than the movie itself!
Disadvantages: They tried and they failed to make a movie about a difficult genre

I first heard of Lost Souls in a Trailer clip that advertised it before as I was waiting for Unbreakable to start in a local Cinema... I must admit the initial trailer for the movie had me gripped as it portrayed what I felt looked and sounded like an excellent potential movie for me to see on my next trip to Warner Village Cinema... Sadly however when I did return to see the 'full' version of Lost Souls it turned out that the original trailer for ...

Lost Souls is one of those very poor films that somehow managed to make it to the Cinema instead of going straight to its rightful home on the bottom shelf of the Video Store or the obscure late night TV schedule of Bravo or the Sci Fi Channel...

Worth a Watch
Review of Lost Souls (DVD) by crazymullets

Advantages: The atmosphere created
Disadvantages: The ending

The film is about religious fanatic (played by Winona Ryder) who believes Satan is about to take a man’s body and walk the earth. She finds out a man that writes about murderers is the body that Satan will take. She has to try to do something to stop this from happening. This film is very easy to get into. The plot develops quite early in the film so you get interested straight away. The atmosphere built up quickly. There are some weird moments ...
...but there were strange and creepy. It had an eerie feel to it. The content and the subject of the film really makes you think about the powers of good and evil and whether or not they really exist. It leaves you with something to think about as well as being slightly creepy. This film isn’t really as good as some of the other horror films. I much preferred ‘The Exorcist’. This is because ‘The Exorcist’ was more visually ... Read review

XES - the DVD review
Review of Lost Souls (DVD) by Staggly

Advantages: Above average horror - with Winona Ryder!
Disadvantages: Could have been a lot better

I should state early on that I am a big fan of Horror (especially religious/psychological horror) and I’m also a huge fan of Winona Ryder. Although I will try to be objective, a small amount of bias is bound to creep in…sorry! Winona Ryder plays a woman who was once possessed by a demon who had to be exorcised. After several years have passed she finds herself helping to exorcise a guy who also claims to be possessed. At this exorcism ...
...reborn soon in the body of a man, Ben Chaplin. Winona then has to convince him of this and help him before it is too late, problem is, Chaplin is an atheist… OK so this isn’t exactly as good as the Exorcist but it ain't bad either. It is by far the best horror film to be released this year (so far and that’s excluding The Hole as horror). Winona doesn’t exactly push herself to great new heights but she is still good, as is ...

Review of The House Of Lost Souls (DVD) by  Joscyn

Advantages: Cheap and cheesy
Disadvantages: cheap and cheesy?

...for the night, until strange happenings in the middle of the night disturb their sleep?? Will they all escape the House Of Lost Souls in one piece? Why will the spirits not leave them alone and what is their story? On the face of it this film sounds like a typical 'Group of kids break down and pull up at a scary mansion' cliché, and I suppose to a certain extent it is but the thing that makes it work is that the hotel is not some crumbly Addams Family style building but could be any simple European hotel (except for the strange happenings, obviously, although if you have encountered spirits hell-bent on evil in Magaluf, please feel free to correct me.) The setting is quite unremarkable - which is why you could forgive them for not realising the place was haunted when they first check in, unlike some films where you wonder how they could...

Stylish and Weird Action Film
Review of City Of Lost Souls (DVD) by  fraz1511

Advantages: Stylish, Fun, Action Filled, Off The Wall Thriller
Disadvantages: Boring Central Character and Weak Ending

...The City Of Lost Souls - 2000 - Japan Supercharged fantasy thriller from Takashi (Audtion & Ichi The Killer) Miike. I think this is one of Miike's most accessible films it's more fun, less violent and faster moving than most of his films. In this violent action/comedy/thriller, Teah (A half Brazilian half Japanese model) plays Mario a supercool gunman trying to save his girlfriend from the clutches of an evil, bondage obsessed Triad boss who loves playing Ping Pong. Mario accidently steals a bundle of cocaine from the triads and all hell breaks loose. Throw in a bad guy with a mohawk, martial arts, a cockfight filmed in the style of the matrix, plenty of Hong Kong inspired shoot outs, a blind girl and a booby trapped ping pong table you start to get the idea. As usual with Miike the cinematography is crisp glossy... Read review

Anatomy or Elegy?
Review of Butley (DVD) by  Silverback

Advantages: A stellar seminar in self-destruction
Disadvantages: Slightly over-long; the seventies setting dates it.

...of a tutorial with a quip like "a bit fishmongery, that," after an earnest student, reading her essay, uses the phrase "the frozen soul." Gray sums up Butley's "self-destructive vanity" in his DVD commentary, saying that he's "Got a lot of passion, but it hasn't got a focus. He's a lost soul. He's full of a sort of energy that's become demonic. He's not sure that teaching is of any use; he's feasting off the dregs of his relationships. The other characters all have something in their lives that mean something to them. He clearly doesn't." So we have Richard O'Callaghan as the prissy, but slimily ambitious Joey. He's clearly still attracted to Butley's bitchy snobbery, whilst tiring of the endless cynicism. Eventually he has to decide between this and the straightforward honesty of Reg. The other outstanding performance comes from Jessica... Read review

DVD Description

Years ago, priests exorcised a demon out of young Maya Larkin (Winona Ryder). Now she uses her unusual sensitivity to the same demons who once came after her to help the priests in other exorcisms. In one such case, a serial killer named Henry Birdson (John Diehl) claims to know the name of a man who will soon be possessed by Satan, beginning a reign of evil over the world. Maya discovers that the man in question is Peter Kelson (Ben Chaplin), an author of true-crime books who has both wealth and fame but no religious faith. At first Peter is skeptical, but a series of strange and mysterious clues indicates that he might indeed be the victim of a massive satanic conspiracy. Maya and Peter must work together to learn how to reverse what has already begun before time runs out. A haunting and creepy religious horror movie in the tradition of ROSEMARY'S BABY and THE EXORCIST, LOST SOULS features shocking, disturbing imagery and a deeply rooted sense of human mortality.
