Comics Review: "Unbreakable RED SONJA #2" is a Good Second Issue

LETTERS: Carlos M. Mangual

Red Sonja created by Roy Thomas and Barry Windsor-Smith and Robert E. Howard

“She-Double with a Sword”

Red Sonja is female high fantasy and sword and sorcery hero.  She first appeared in Conan the Barbarian #23 (cover dated February 1973) and was created by writer Roy Thomas and artist Barry Windsor-Smith.  Red Sonja was loosely based on “Red Sonya of Rogatino,” a female character that appeared in the 1934 short story, “The Shadow of the Vulture,” written by Conan the Cimmerian's creator, Robert E. Howard.

In 2005, Dynamite Entertainment began publishing comic books featuring differing versions of the character.  The latest is Unbreakable Red Sonja.  It is written by Jim Zub; drawn by Giovanni Valletta; colored by Francesco Segala; and lettered by Carlos M. Mangual.

Unbreakable Red Sonja #2 (“She-Double with a Sword”) opens with more of that story set in a lost time and place and involving an obsession.  Meanwhile, in the present, Red Sonja is still dealing with the shock of coming face to face with her younger self.

She and the child flee the Hyrkanian town called “Thyner's Roost” and head east for the city of Lhasiri.  There, Sonja hopes that mystics in her debt will have answers regarding this uncanny situation.  During the journey, Red Sonja and pre-Red Sonja hope to find a place to rest, but what they find is that an unnatural horror is still hunting them.

THE LOWDOWN:  Since July 2021, Dynamite Entertainment's marketing department has been providing me with PDF review copies of some of their titles.  One of them is Unbreakable Red Sonja #2, which is one of many, many Dynamite Red Sonja comic books that I have read.

Once upon a time, I read several comic books from writer Jim Zub because he frequently sent me PDF review copies … until he hit the big time and didn't need to send out review copies.  Now, PDF review copies of his work are once again available to me through another source, Dynamite Entertainment.  It turns out that the Unbreakable Red Sonja is an enjoyable Zub comic book.  It reads like classic, old school, sword and sorcery comic books.  It is full of mystery and magic, and just when I thought things were getting a little safe in the story, something gruesome shows up and starts killing.

Artist Giovanni Valletta's illustrations here remind me of old Marvel Comics Conan, and I could imagine Valletta's art being published by Marvel in the 1970s.  Valletta's storytelling is calm until it needs to explode, and explode it does.  Francesco Segala's atmospheric colors are perfect for this art, especially for this chapter's darker aspects.  Even letterer Carlos M. Mangual, who has done some Marvel work, gets in on the vintage Marvel Red Sonja vibe.

I was intrigued by this series' first issue, and this second issue makes me curious about everything that is to come.  Something dark and hellish is coming … I hope, so I am recommending this Red Sonja comic book – although I often recommend Red Sonja.

I READS YOU RECOMMENDS:  Fans of Red Sonja comic books will want to try Unbreakable Red Sonja.

Review: "THREE THOUSAND YEARS OF LONGING" is a Fairy Tale of Love Stories

TRASH IN MY EYE No. 73 of 2022 (No. 1885) by Leroy Douresseaux

Three Thousand Years of Longing (2022)

Running time:  108 minutes (1 hour, 48 minutes)

MPA – R for some sexual content, graphic nudity and brief violence

DIRECTOR:  George Miller

WRITERS:  George Miller and Augusta Gore (based upon the short story by A.S. Byatt)

PRODUCERS:  Doug Mitchell and George Miller

CINEMATOGRAPHER:  John Seale (D.o.P.)

EDITOR:  Margaret Sixel

COMPOSER: Junkie XL

FANTASY/ROMANCE/DRAMA

Starring:  Tilda Swinton, Idris Elba, Erdil Yasaroglu, Aamito Lagum, Ece Yuksel, Matteo Bocelli, and Nicolas Mouawad

Three Thousand Years of Longing is a 2022 fantasy film and romantic drama directed by George Miller  It is based on the short story, “The Djinn in the Nightingale's Eye,” which was written by author A. S. Byatt and first published in the Winter 1994 edition of The Paris Review.  Three Thousand Years of Longing focuses on lonely scholar and a djinn who offers her three wishes in exchange for his freedom.

Three Thousand Years of Longing introduces Alithea Binnie (Tilda Swinton), a lonely British scholar and “narratologist.”  She travels to Istanbul, Turkey for a conference.  While there, Alithea visits Istanbul's “Grand Bazaar” where she enters a store filled with beautiful and intricate glassware.  She purchases an odd, antique bottle, and takes it back to her hotel.

While cleaning the bottle, Alithea is shocked to discover that there is something inside it and that she has unwittingly released its contents.  Alithea has accidentally unleashed a djinn that was trapped inside the bottle.  The Djinn (Idris Elba) offers to grant her three wishes, but Alithea believes that djinn are tricksters and that the wishes they grant turn out to be misfortune for those that did the wishing.  So The Djinn tells Alithea three tales that explain how he came to be in the bottle in which she found him.  Will this convince Alithea to accept his offer of three wishes – an act that will grant him freedom?

First, I must say that Three Thousand Years of Longing has excellent production values, and I would expect nothing less from a great filmmaker like George Miller, best known for his Mad Max films, including the original Mad Max (1979) and the most recent, the winner of multiple Oscar-winner, Mad Max: Fury Road (2015).  The costumes, sets, art direction, hair and make-up, the score, and cinematography give Three Thousand Years of Longing a golden hue.  It is in the depiction of The Djinn's stories that this film's production values assert their power in transforming Three Thousand Years of Longing into a engaging fairy tale full of wondrous fairy tales

However, these same fairy tales often outshine the main narrative, much of which deals with the impasse in which Alithea and The Djinn find themselves.  Luckily, Three Thousand Years of Longing is a story with a beginning, middle, and an end.  For it is at the end that we learn that Three Thousand Years of Longing is truly a love story, but a love story that only a fairy tale can tell.  Love is a story, and in this story, love, with its endless longing, is different and lives differently.

George Miller and his co-writer, Augusta Gore, could only tell this film story with two extraordinary and exceptional actors.  Tilda Swinton, strange chameleon and splendid thespian, and Idris Elba, whose profound voice reveals the deep pool of ability from which it springs, are so perfectly matched in being mismatched and star-crossed, that they make us believe in what their characters ultimately make for themselves.  Three Thousand Years of Longing is not perfect, but it is the kind of fantasy film that only exceptional cinematic talents can create.

Review: "PEARL" Horror Film is as Crazy as It Wants to Be

TRASH IN MY EYE No. 72 of 2022 (No. 1884) by Leroy Douresseaux

Pearl (2022)

Running time:  102 minutes (1 hour, 42 minutes)

MPA – R for some strong violence, gore, strong sexual content and graphic nudity

DIRECTOR:  Ti West

WRITERS: Ti West and Mia Goth (based on characters created by Ti West)

PRODUCERS:  Jacob Jaffke, Harrison Kreiss, Kevin Turen, and Ti West

CINEMATOGRAPHER:  Eliot Rockett (D.o.P.)

EDITOR:  Ti West

COMPOSERS:  Tyler Bates and Tim Williams

HORROR

Starring:  Mia Goth, David Corenswet, Tandi Wright, Matthew Sunderland, Emma Jenkins-Purro, Alistair Sewell, and Amelia Reid

Pearl is a 2022 horror film from director Ti West.  The film serves as a prequel to the 2022 horror film, X, and is also the second entry in the “X” film series.  The film focuses on a young woman who feels trapped on her family's isolated farm where she dreams of stardom and harbors a dark side.

Pearl opens in 1918.  In Europe, World War I rages on, and in the United States, the homefront is plagued by an influenza pandemic.  The story focuses on Pearl (Mia Goth), a young woman who lives on a Texas farm with her parents who are German immigrants.  Pearl's husband, Howard (Alistair Sewell), is serving in WWI.  Her domineering mother, Ruth (Tandi Wright), insists that Pearl always work, either tending to the animals or caring for her paralyzed father (Matthew Sunderland).

However, Pearl longs for a more glamorous life, and she visits the local cinema where she can watch silent films.  Pearl wishes she could be like one of the chorus girls she sees in her favorite films.  Pearl wants to be a star, but she also shows signs of being quite the disturbed individual:  killing farm animals, abusing her father, and thinking about killing people.

Pearl is certainly a horror movie, but the film is also a psychological drama and suspense and mystery thriller.  Writer-director Ti West and writer-star Mia Goth plumb the depths of Pearl's character, her conflicts, and her dreams.  Pearl is like other people, although she does not think so.  What makes her stand out is that he murderous impulses are not held in check and only get worse.

Pearl is also an edgy immigrant family drama that uses the clash between the old (the immigrant) parents and the new (Pearl the daughter) as a vehicle for Pearl's rage.  From the moment the story introduces Pearl's tiresome mother, Ruth, the family conflict devolves into a tawdry, yet alluring Gothic horror of the kind that recalls the work of the late novelist, V.C. Andrews (1923-86).  The demands of Pearl's parents, especially the bitter Ruth, with her ruthless tongue, push out the darker aspects of Pearl's identity and personality.

Pearl builds its suspense and mystery on a game of time and fate.  When will the repressed homicidal aspects of her personality, which Pearl seems to think of as her “true self,” come busting out?  Pearl's dreams might be pipe dreams, but in her performance, Mia Goth convinces her audience that Pearl really does want to perform for the people she believes could be her audience.  Pearl wants to be loved, but she believes that the real her cannot be loved, nor is true self worthy of love.

Pearl is complicated.  Horror films have long dealt with duality – killer and victim.  However, there is a strain of horror that deals with lead characters that are sometimes sympathetic.  They also turn out to have personality disorders that result in the compulsion to brutally kill people within their reach.  In the 1976 film, Carrie (based on Stephen King's 1974 of the same name), the title character seems to have her dark side forced out of her.  Pearl forces a light side of herself out into the world, but her homicidal nature does not need to be pushed out.  It does not need much coaxing to come out and play a game of death with unwary victims.

As a team, Ti West and Mia Goth deliver a truly unique cinematic work of horror and (yes) suspense in Pearl.  As Pearl the character, Goth is the pounding hell-spawned heart of this film, and it needs a strong heart.  Honestly, outside of Pearl the character, Pearl the film's plot, characters, and setting art surreal to the point of being too cute.

In the second half of the film, Goth has a delightful dance sequence that personifies to the depth of Pearl's character.  I can see why Oscar-winning director Martin Scorsese says that Goth's performance here is Oscar worthy.  Mia Goth liberates horror of its needs for scream queens, masked killers, final girls, and supernatural theatrics.  Pearl shows that horror movies can be quite horrifying simply by imagining the ultimate heart of darkness in its prettiest maidens, smiling waifs, and perky sprites – you know, the kind of female that is usually the victim in scary movies.
