Of all the legendary early horror films Carl Theodor Dreyer’s vampire nightmare was once the most difficult to appreciate — until Criterion’s restoration of a mostly intact, un-mutilated full cut. Dreyer creates his fantasy according to his own rules — this pallid, claustrophobic horror is closer to Ordet than it is Dracula or Nosferatu.

You should probably help Pretty Little Liars win the Best High School Show Ever Competition. You should probably do that.
Previously on Pretty Little Liars, Aria and Spencer and that loose girl Cece got all dolled up for one of Noel Kahn's Wild Sex Parties, and the shocker of the hour was that no one contracted anything. And two weeks ago, Wren kissed Hanna, but No I'm Still Not Talking About That Until I Absolutely Have To. Which hopefully will be never. New episode!
Ashley Marin is trying to be a mom by moving plants, because that's the most important thing to do when your daughter's life is in constant mortal peril. But under that plant (oddly enough) is a note from Maya to Emily asking her to meet up (oddly enough) on the night of her death (oddly enough) but the location of their supposed talk is curiously missing...
