Shapes of an alternate reality – Il gatto a nove code (1971)

The dreams I dream only the lonely dream
Of lips as warm as May
That hopeless scheme only the lonely scheme
That soon somewhere you’ll find the one that used to care

Drácula contra Frankenstein (1972) or: Deconstructing horror with Jess Franco

As you look through my window
Deep into my room
At the tapestries all faded
Their vague and distant glories
Concealed in the gloom
The icy fingers of forgotten passions
Softly brushing my lips
At the tips of my primitive soul

(Black Sabbath – Born Again)
