So I was contacted by someone on TwiX killer Bluesky. (follow me: https://bsky.app/profile/corpsecandy.bsky.social ) asking me if I'd be interested in checking out their short film. They told me it was about goat cults and I said "sure, why not. I'd love to check it out." A few messages and a few days later I recieved a DVD in the mail. The film in question is La Cabra by Toruga Productions. Here's the blurb from their youtube page: "Set in 1974, this atmospheric short horror film depicts the story of Laura, a child who has an affinity for goats. As this macabre tale unfolds, we see Laura drawn deep into the forest to commune with the Great Hooved He-Goat.Music by Alicia Fricker, with kind permission of David Amito - Antrum."
I rather enjoyed this under 15 minute short film. I was nicely shot and gives retro folksy spooky vibes. I watched it late at night on my 13" Sony CRT television which I think gave it a more "vintage" feel and I think it would sit nicely with Piers Haggard's 1971 folk horror film The Blood on Satan's Claw. Cults and devils and spooky kids are usually a recipe for good things and La Cabra delivers.
