Yep, here's an alien race called "Vykiens" (VIY-KEE-INS) who've been living on Earth for many years.

The Vykiens are a peaceful race, but two evil Vykeins named Vexter and Zarkia turned on them and eventually created their own clone army of Vykiens (now renamed "Vexiens").

As well as Viy there is 'The Terrible Vengeance' ' Strashnaya mest' by Gogol - a story about evil spirits and the antichrist. It evokes folklore but seems to be his own paranoid invention. Cossacks do not fear sorcerors! Powerful illustration by Barry Bruner

I finally watched Soviet Folk Horror VIY (1967), and loved it to bits! A gloriously inventive technical achievement (I have to assume Sam Raimi is a fan), with fun performances and a terrific score. The climactic eye-popping phantasmagoria unleashed is truly a sight to behold..!

One of those crucial missing links in cinema’s development, Soviet classic finally gets the attention it deserves via Blu-ray.

Love movie nights with
Our double feature was ‘Viy’ and ‘Gothic’.
One a Hammer-ish Russian flick with a witch who rides a coffin.
The other, Ken Russell’s bonkers take on Mary Shelley’s night at Villa Diodati.

Both under 90 mins
Both visually insane
Would recommend🍷

Viy (1967) dir. Konstantin Ershov, Georgiy Kropachyov

Based on the novella by Gogol this is the first first Soviet-era horror film to be officially released in the USSR and it is magnificently atmospheric and bizarre.

"Viy" -Spirit of Evil, Вий- (1967, Yershov and Kropachyov)

Demonic soviet films from the 60s are always the best!!

"Viy" is a novella by Nikolai Gogol. The title is the name of the entity central to the plot.Gogol insisted that Viy, the King of the Gnomes, was a character from Ukrainian folklore, but no discovery has been made of any East Slavic folktale resembling the story
