I recently rewatched the first 2 seasons of Twin Peaks (in preparation to see The Return for the first time) and forgot how much was in there. When there was a brief glimpse at the map in the second season I was like "...is that MEANT to be a sign of Jupiter?" but they didn't touch on it until a few episodes later. I was suprised Coop didn't have his alchemical symbols memorized!

Stephen King's film "Hopelessness" - Rare film Apostles of the Raven, short film. Krabat and the charodeis. Stigmata. Howl 1 Howl 2 and the movie Wolf with Jack Nicholson...
Most likely, this is not a favorite film, but rather those films that help form a kaleidoscope-mosaic of all global occultism. That is, they are, as it were, parts of a global and cellular picture...Like cells of society or honeycombs in which we all work.
"Having walked in silence along a difficult and roundabout path, having accepted the blows of fate, the test of a noose, then of fire. Having played a game in which there is no equal, I rose above the vicissitudes of fate, forgetting about the burden of expenses, I found the key and that key is from the 9 gates"...
"Having walked in silence along a long and winding path, having rejected the arrows of failure and the noose of troubles, without being afraid and without retreating before the fire. By entering a game in which there are no equals and winning, despite the cost, you will crush fates and obstacles, and then you will obtain the precious key that will unlock the 9th gate".
This is a quote from the movie The 9th Gate, which in my opinion is considered one of the best on the topic of the occult.
I even have a postcard from this film and several books, including one on the 9th Gate practice.

Ninth Gate is amazing movie. Way better than the book. Though I recommend reading Club Dumas anyway, it has some cool hints on the Nine Gates book worth reading.Stephen King's film "Hopelessness" - Rare film Apostles of the Raven, short film. Krabat and the charodeis. Stigmata. Howl 1 Howl 2 and the movie Wolf with Jack Nicholson...

The Ninth Gate
I'm not too much into movies myself, but man, this one was fantastic, probably the first movie that comes to mind that i would watch several times. Not too much to say: Great comfy atmosphere, very alluring, it's just a cool film overall. Polanski made good stuff, he also worked on the "Chinatown" movie featuring Jack Nicholson "Jake Gittes" detective. Detectives and the occult are a wonderful combination.

Ramsey Campbell's favourite horror film. "It's in the trees! It's coming!" Kate Bush likes it too. As do I.

Occult Forces (1942).
It's labeled a Nazi production, but history is written by the winners. By no means, so I harbor any antisemitism, but the movie itself is very telling.

Great topic!
Rosemary's Baby (1968)
To me, best depiction of "true" or authentic satanists and the use of "black" magic. No super edgy goth kids but "normal" people, at least from the outside. Summoning the Antichrist to see the world burn, but still getting mad about somebody ruining your parquet floor. This scene kills me every time.
Ghostbusters (1984)
A weird cult building a skyscraper out of a rare metal to summon an ancient deity to destroy the world? Classic stuff! Most important scene: a mere mortal standing bravely against a god: Gozer the Gozerian, good evening. As a duly designated representative of the city, county, and state of New York, I order you to cease any and all supernatural activity and return forthwith to your place of origin or to the nearest convenient parallel dimension!
Ghostbusters II (1989)
From Magicians, Martyrs, And Madmen by Leon Zundinger: Vigo the Carpathian born in 1505 and died in 1610, also known as 'Vigo the Cruel', 'Vigo the Torturer', 'Vigo the Despised' and 'Vigo the Unholy'. History would remember him as a powerful magician and an intelligent genius, but also as an oppressive tyrant, an egotistical autocrat, a psychopathic lunatic, and a genocidal madman. Just before his head died, his last words were "Death is but a door, time is but a window...I'll be back."
I would also say The Ninth Gate, but honestly, the movie gets outshined by the novel it's based on, The Club Dumas by Arturo Pérez-Reverte. Best depiction of the Devil I ever read: I don't understand why they keep on calling upon me, there is nothing I can give.
The same goes for The Name of the Rose. Awesome movie, but the novel by Umberto Ecco is such an amazing deep dive into Ancient and Medieval literature, politics, philosophy and Christian mysticism. A movie could never deliver this in such a detail.

"don't understand why they keep on calling upon me, there is nothing I can give."
classic because it is a lie, perhaps?
newsflash: the devil owns this world and its banks and its power and its celebrities and the press

Interesting film and it is unusual that someone knows about it!
A faithful representation of what actually freemasonry is: a (still, even though now somewhat less) powerful lobby whose members are in mostly only for their benefits and don't care about enlightening humanity at all. Hypocrites.
