La storia è il classico triangolo amoroso: lui, lei, l’altra. Solo che lui (Venâncio) e lei (Dalva) si adorano. Tanto che lui è di una gelosia omicida e, quando vede lei allattare il primo frutto del loro grande amore, strappa il figlio alla madre e lo scaraventa via, uccidendolo – o così sembra. L’altra (Lucy), per converso, è la prostituta più bella e più desiderata della città, ma non da lui, che dopo la tragedia continua a vivere con la moglie, la quale però fa come se lui non esistesse obbligandolo perciò ad andare al bordello per sfogarsi, con la prima che capita.

If the vampire is both scary and seductive, the lesbian vampire, who lives at the farthest fringes of society, is doubly so.

These are some of the weapons she employs to lure and enslave her victims, willing and otherwise. Edited by noted vampire aficionado Pam Keesey, Dark Angels showcases the lesbian vampire in all her glory.

The Cottage on the Hill is a horror story, but it’s a J. Robert Lennon horror story, in which the characters’ loneliness - their disconnectedness, their inability, at times, even to speak or listen to one another - is more chilling than any of the supernatural elements.

Stefano Benni sfida il racconto di genere e apre la porta dell'orrore. Lo fa con ironia, lo fa attingendo al grottesco, lo fa tuffandosi nel comico, lo fa tastando l'angoscia, lo fa, in omaggio ai suoi maestri, rammentandoci di cosa è fatta la paura. E finisce con il consegnarci una galleria di memorabili mostri. E allora ecco gli adolescenti senza prospettiva o speranza, ecco il Wenge - una creatura misteriosa che semina panico e morte -, ecco il plutocrate russo che vuole sbarazzarsi di un albero secolare, ecco una Madonna che invece di piangere ride, dolcemente sfrontata.
