First Look Review - "The Girl With The Needle"

by Eric Hillis, TheMovieWaffler.com
published 2024-12-10

Writer/director Magnus von Horn follows The Here After and Sweat with another intense character study in period drama The Girl with the Needle. This one is loosely inspired by the real life Danish serial killer Dagmar Overbye, but von Horn's true inspiration seems to come from the melodramas of the silent era and perhaps from Richard Fleischer's 10 Rillington Place, with which it shares several thematic elements. Like the recent films Woman of the Hour, The Man in the White Van and He Went That Way, it's a movie about a serial killer that is centred not on the killer but on someone unfortunate enough to find themselves in their orbit.

Rock On! This Week's Sound Bites... 07/23/2026

"Correct! I actually performed on The Totally Tubular Festival two years ago. I was playing solo that night and they asked me to come back, so I thought I'd do something a bit different and so I decided to reform my backing band from 1988, The Lost Toy People. The last show we played together was with Depeche Mode and OMD at the Rose Bowl for the legendary 101 Concert and the other night in Phoenix was our first show in 38 years; how about that?"




Wesley Pierre: "Catharsis"

Even those who don't know very much about visual art are familiar with the Cubist approach to the human body. Pablo Picasso liked to present a person from many angles at once, and compress three-dimensional form into a two-dimensional frame. No matter what step she's on, that nude descending a staircase comes at us all at once. We know we're looking at an individual person, even if it's never clear which of those fields of color represent the present moment and which are afterimages, projections, and vapor trails. Representing human beings like this guarantees that there’ll be distortions: facial features in strange places, unexpected angles, duplicates and odd subtractions, clashes between heads, necks, and torsos, the shuffling of expressions, and the surprise and disquiet that comes when an obviously human figure doesn't look much like a human at all.
