Description:
The world's smallest gallery, TwentyByThirty at Pushka bar, are having another collaborative exhibition by artists Wanda Gillespie and Sergei Ignatievsky. This time it's a book, and supposedly it floats. The Book of Levitation will be hovering for a month at the TwentyByThirty space, and according to the press release, "The authoritative gothic font (of the book) alludes to something pious, while the mysterious nature of its levitation suggests an otherworldliness," which sounds like some heavy left-brained twaddle until you actually see the book hanging in space, and thin,k "That shit's putting over some serious supernatural vibes, just like the release said.

Back in 1999, The Blair Witch Project was unleashed on what now seems a touchingly innocent public. Ten cynical years later, Big Brother has ground away the novelty of watching lo-res, observational footage of smart-arses. And studio pictures come pre-packaged with online viral campaigns. Now everyone's going bananas over microbudget horror flick Paranormal Activity as if those 10 years didn't happen.

Packed with symbolism and almost unbearable tension, this Finnish horror film doesn't confuse atonement with redemption. In 1595, after a 25-year war between Russia and Sweden, two brothers, veteran soldier Eerik (Ville Virtanen) and sheltered geography professor Knut (Tommi Eronen), join a border delegation sent to divide Finland between the two nations.

You know things are about to get SERIOUS when you're handed a ‘barf bag' walking into a cinema. That was the scene that greeted multiplex patrons in 1979 when Lucio Fulci's Zombie was finally edited enough to get a western release. Coke, popcorn and a barf bag - lovely.

Some random things we have learned from horror movies: promiscuous teens must die; splitting up to explore creepy mansions is stoopid; you can't stay awake forever; repeating "Candyman" in the mirror will get you murked in a really messed up way. Maybe you'd like to add your own horror convention to that list? If you have a video camera, a bit of inspiration and some fake blood you can submit an entry for Oh.
