The first time I watched The Lair of the White Worm, it was with a friend in college who was a huge cult movie fan.

She insisted that the best way to watch it was to keep a running tally of all the phallic symbols in the movie -- and she was absolutely right.

If you haven't seen it before, it's a great film to watch with friends, and it includes impossibly young Hugh Grant and Peter Capaldi, plus Amanda Donohoe at her campy-sexy best. In the US it's available to stream for free in several places at the moment. (In other regions your luck may vary.)

Geständnis: Mit dem „Fräulein Smilla“ hatte ich eine leidenschaftliche literarische Affäre. Ich kann mich zwar beim besten Willen nicht mehr daran erinnern, wo ich das Buch von Peter Høeg gelesen habe. Doch daran, wie ich es an einem Stück aufgesogen habe, erinnere ich mich, als wäre es erst gestern gewesen. Merkwürdig ist das schon, oder..? (ARD, Wh.)
