Thittivasal (2017)

시카고 항, 브라질에서 도착한 산토스로 선상에는 머리가 뜯겨져 나간 시체들로 대참상이 벌어져 있다. 다고스타 반장(Lt. Vincent D'Agosta: 톰 시즈모어 분)이 조사에 착수하지만 사건은 미궁속으로 빠져들 뿐... 이즈음, 박물관의 그린 박사(Dr. Margo Green: 페네로프 앤 밀러 분)는 운송되어 온 유물 속에서 식물 잎사귀의 DNA를 감식해 본 결과, 도저히 믿기지 않는 사실을 발견하고 경악한다. 당시 박물관 측은 재정적 압박을 해소하기 위해 저명인사들을 초청, 개관 기념파티를 펼치고 있었다. 홀 곳곳에선 경비병들이 모든 통로를 차단한 채 감시의 눈초리를 번득이고 있다. 순간, 그린 박사의 불길한 예감이 적중이라도 하듯 물샐틈없는 삼엄한 경비망을 뚫고 마침내 미지로부터의 묵시를 띤 파충류의 급습이 시작되고 만다. 강도 7의 지진과 같은 엄청난 진동과 함께 보안씨스템이 올스톱되고, 천정의 스프링쿨러가 풀가동되자, 파티장은 순식간에 아수라의 지옥도로 변해 버린다. 파충류의 집중적인 추격을 받기에 이른 그린 박사. 끈끈한 점액질의 채액을 흘리며 다가오는 입에선 두 갈래로 갈라진 긴 혀가 그녀의 목덜미와 얼굴을 감싸는데...

The little coastal town of Clark's Harbor seems like the perfect place for psychiatrist Brad Russell and his wife to get a little peace and spend more time with each other. But the locals don't seem very friendly and every time a storm rolls in another mysterious death occurs... Could an ancient Indian legend of ghostly tribes and human sacrifice have anything to do with it?

With Pete Smith providing dry off-screen commentary, we watch some serious fishing: a marlin caught near Catalina, a hammerhead shark caught then wrestled in a small rowboat near Baja, the largest (721 pounds) great white shark caught to date in California waters, Chinook Indians catching salmon at Celilo Falls in Oregon - each with his designated place on the river where his ancestors stood, and, last, a crew on a boat off Mexico hoisting and hurling tuna using unbarbed hooks (baited only with a feather) as fast as they can as long as the school is there - backbreaking work - but a $25,000 catch.

Don Pablo Salazar steals a fortune in jewels from an Indian tribe and an Aztec medicine man puts a curse on the jewels until they are returned. Years later, an American insurance man promises to deliver the Salazar fortune to the rightful heir...

Xapiri is a Yanomami term that characterizes the shamans, male spirits (xapiri thëpë) and also auxiliary spirits (xapiri pë). Xapiri is an experimental film about Yanomami shamanism that was filmed during a meeting of 37 shamans at the Watoriki Reserve, Roraima, in March of 2011. The film was designed to take into account two different notions of image: those of the Yanomami and ours. Therefore, it does not set out to explain shamanism, its methods or procedures, but to allow different cultures to visualize and feel the way in which the shamans “embody” the spirits, their bodies and voices.

We begin at the train station near Montana's Glacier National Park, where Blackfeet Indians meet the arriving tourists. Glacier Park, an off-screen narrator tells us, has the remnants of 60 glaciers, from three ice ages. We visit the lodge, built in Swiss style, where college students dressed in Swiss garb do the serving at the restaurant. We watch Indian dancing and a ceremony. After views of lakes, mountains, and trails in the park, it's north to Canada's Waterton Lakes, a vacation spot for Canadian and U.S. families.
