The controversy around Anna Biller’s The Face of Horror got me thinking about our curious habit of calling anything theatrical, beautiful or emotionally sincere “camp”.

What’s his story or novella in which the protagonist takes photos using an antique process? If I’m remembering correctly, it’s not SF or fantasy.

Plot of #ItTheTerrorFromBeyondSpace seems inspired by two 1939 stories by A. E. Van Vogt, later incorporated into his 1950 novel Voyage of the Space Beagle. Van Vogt lived to sue #Alien & got $50,000 settlement.

I’ve never seen it, but in 1964, Ferrer repeated the role of Cyrano, w. Jean-Pierre Cassel as D’Artagnan. It does not have a great reputation, despite being the last theatrical film directed by Abel Gance. Sylva Koscina & Daliah Lavi are the heroines.
