Black Flame
Black Flame | Gretchen Felker-Martin
2 posts | 3 read | 4 to read
One woman's deadly obsession with a haunted archival film precipitates her undoing in Black Flame, from the USA Today bestselling author of Manhunt, Gretchen Felker-Martin. A cursed film. A haunted past. A deadly secret. The Baroness, an infamous exploitation film long thought destroyed by Nazi fire, is discovered fifty years later. When lonely archivist Ellen Kramer--deeply closeted and pathologically repressed--begins restoring the hedonistic movie, it unspools dark desires from deep within her. As Ellen is consumed by visions and voices, she becomes convinced the movie is real, and is happening to her--and that frame by frame, she is unleashing its occult horrors on the world. Her life quickly begins to spiral out of control. Until it all fades to black, and all that remains is a voice asking a question Ellen can't answer but can't get out of her mind. Do you want it?More than anything? Also by Gretchen Felker-Martin: ManhuntCuckoo

Litsy, I read horror, so I don‘t know why I felt like I spent most of my time clutching my pearls while reading this. Like I was brand new to this. lol. We follow Ellen, a deeply closeted person who works at a company that restores films. A newly found exploitation film believed to be destroyed by the Nazis has arrived. It‘s haunted and soon, Ellen finds her reality being blurred while also wondering if the choice to be closeted was the right👇🏼

Reggie one. This book becomes a scab and Gretchen just picks and picks and picks at it. There‘s an epigraph from Clive Barker and in the back she thanks him. The whole time I was reading this book I was thinking of him. I finished this last night and I‘m still on a reader‘s high this morning. Pick! (edited) 3d

A World War 2 exploitation film thought to have been destroyed is found. Cut to the 1980's, a closeted film archivist is tasked with restoring the work for some wealthy producers. As she digs deeper into the lore of the movie, a strange possession is unleashed, leading to the release of suppressed desires, carnality, and a sinister curse in this feminist horror novel.
