Folk Horror & Filmmaking: An Interview with Sean Garland by Kimberly Lindbergs

I recently asked director Sean Garland (BANSHEE BLACKTOP, AN IRISH GHOST STORY (2016) and NOKOTAHEART [2011]) a few questions about his filmmaking career. He also shares some Halloween streaming recommendations for FilmStruck subscribers that should appeal to discerning horror enthusiasts.

FILMSTRUCK: Could you tell readers a little bit about your background and how you became interested in filmmaking?

SEAN GARLAND: Well I grew up in a predominantly working-class North Dublin household where there was always a stream of activity. Three Irish sisters and three Irish brothers in one relatively small suburban house. My Ma had a quiet, encyclopedic knowledge of old movies and dad squirrelled us away in the dark of a Dublin cinema as often as possible to keep us preoccupied. I was the youngest, so I got to see a lot of films beyond my years. John Guillermin’s 1976 remake of KING KONG always comes to mind. I recall seeing it vividly in the cinema, with John Barry’s score washing over me, but I must have been only 4 or 5. The Christian Brothers school I attended (until I was 12) would often have a pop-up cinema on Fridays but they’d project the most random and irreverent films. One week it’d be HERBIE GOES BANANAS (’80) followed by Philip Kaufman’s INVASION OF THE BODY SNATCHERS (’78). Another week THE LAND THAT TIME FORGOT (’74) followed by John Badham’s 1979 version of DRACULA. I was pretty young but old enough to decide what I wanted to do with the rest of my life after sitting up and watching JAWS (’75) with my Da one night on Irish TV.

I painted a fair bit back then, wrote short stories and always had a book in my hand. Two books in particular set me on a path in my teens: Michael Pye’s and Linda Myles’s The Movie Brats and Peter Nicholl’s Fantastic Cinema. It wasn’t enough anymore to immerse myself in other people’s movies, so I started shooting my own short stories on my sister’s video camera, which she brought home from London. It was the Ark of the Covenant to me, and Jim Sheridan and Neil Jordan had shown the world you could be Irish and make great, impactful films for an international audience. Times were changing, so after leaving college after my first year (finding film studies too generic and unadventurous to ever be exciting) I came into contact with Jim Sheridan by sheer happenstance and somehow convinced him to give me a break. I got a job as a production assistant on IN THE NAME OF THE FATHER (’93) and, after a long stint travelling in the States and living in Los Angeles I finally elected to make my first short film, THE MAJESTY OF THE HAUNT (’96). We shot it on Super 16mm in County Wicklow for a pittance, a stone’s throw from where John Boorman shot EXCALIBUR (’81).

FS: Who are some of the filmmakers that inspired you to start making your own movies?

SJG: When I was younger, the filmmakers that inspired me where chiefly within the pages of those two books (The Movie Brats & Fantastic Cinema). It was the Spielbergs, Carpenters and Cronenbergs, the Hal Ashbys and Terrence Malicks of the world that made me pursue a career as a director, but as I got older my tastes diversified. Pretty soon I was watching everything I could get my hands on. Ken Russell, Polanski, Roeg, Parker, Tarkovsky, Schlesinger, Michael Mann, Ridley Scott, Lumet, Leone, all the greats. I fell willingly down the rabbit hole let’s just say. I mean I loved David Lean, but I also overdosed on Romero— that kind of thing. That sense of discovery never really ends, don’t you think? Watching movies is still the best film school money can buy. One is always going to stumble upon a film or a particular filmmaker that slipped your net then resets your palette. It’s healthy. It keeps one intrigued and humble.

FS: I absolutely agree. That sense of discovery and the desire to share my findings with others is what inspired me to start writing about cinema. Before you began making films you worked with other Irish filmmakers including Jim Sheridan and Neil Jordan as a production assistant. What was that experience like?

SJG: I worked with Jim on IN THE NAME OF THE FATHER but never had the pleasure of working alongside Neil. My work on INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE (’94) included pre-production just weeks before the bulk of the shoot in New Orleans. It was a straightforward gig really. I was to assist a handful of stuntmen who were rigging up Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt for the vampire flight sequences, which sadly never made the cut. I was just 20, fairly green and newly arrived in L.A. I was happy to get a job and never dreamed I’d be working alongside names like that months after rocking up in L.A. But what made the experience even more surreal and memorable for me was that it all took place at Stan Winston’s Studios. I’d gushingly arrive at least an hour before the crew in the morning and roam the workshops, chat to the staff and hang out in Stan’s display room where he kept his creations. I remember him being a very jovial, approachable man. As for the experience of working with Jim, I remember the first few weeks being something of a baptism of fire if I’m honest. Not because of Jim but because I was the new kid on the block, young and impressionable, but I soon toughened up and started to enjoy it. Jim was unerringly gracious though I probably drove him up the wall requesting to see the rushes and stand alongside the camera. He worked with cast and crew entirely without ego and that stuck with me for years.

FS: I haven’t had a chance to see your first film (ABBOT’S APPROACH, ’00) but I believe it takes place in Ireland as does your most recent film, BANSHEE BLACKTOP, AN IRISH GHOST STORY. The latter film features some stunning location photography and incorporates elements of Irish mythology and folktales. How has your background and upbringing influenced your work and do you plan to make any more movies set in Ireland?

SJG: Anybody who's grown up in Ireland feels an intuitive vein of storytelling in their heritage. It's in the conversational tone of the people, the music you hear and the landscape that’s never too far from the city. You feel more Irish abroad because, until you leave, you don't realize you carry all that inside you on some instinctive level. So I've always returned to Ireland between other projects to make films and always will. BANSHEE BLACKTOP, AN IRISH GHOST STORY was an opportunity to indulge that connection with a lifelong love of slow-burn, atmosphere-laden ghost stories. BANSHEE BLACKTOP was always going to feel oblique and unsettling. It was never going to please the gore hounds or those who like their horror-fare readymade and jump-scared. It was non-horror films that served as inspiration while I was shooting: NIGHT OF THE HUNTER (‘55), WALKABOUT (‘71), PICNIC AT HANGING ROCK (’75).

FS: FilmStruck, in association with Criterion, has a wide variety of horror films available to stream this month in anticipation of Halloween, including some films that could fall under the folk horror banner such the Val Lewton classic ISLE OF THE DEAD (‘45) and the Japanese film KURONEKO (‘68). What are some of the horror films currently on FilmStruck that you would recommend readers watch this Halloween?

SJG: Well, right out the gate I’d pluck SPIRITS OF THE DEAD (‘68) off the shelf, if only to experience Fellini’s genuinely unforgettable “Toby Dammit” segment. I think it’s actually my favorite short film. I’d follow that up with ONIBABA (‘64), surely one of the greatest horror films ever made. And then, just to blindside myself, I’d treat myself to another queasy viewing of the hugely underrated THE NIGHTCOMERS (‘71), which I didn’t expect to warm up to upon my first viewing but was pleasantly...well, blindsided. It’s not THE INNOCENTS (‘61) but it’s a worthy ‘prequel’.

Royal Portrush, Once Deemed Too Small, Gets Another Shot at the British Open

In 1951, the British Open was played outside of Scotland and England for the first time, crossing the Irish Sea for the cliffs of the Royal Portrush Golf Club in Northern Ireland.

Max Faulkner of England won that year, a command performance that loosened the stranglehold Bobby Locke of South Africa was placing on the Claret Jug. Historians place the crowds at 7,000 per day, and hopes were high that Royal Portrush would get another Open.

A decade later, Royal Portrush was still waiting.

The civil strife in Northern Ireland in the 1960s had helped keep away the Open. And later, Royal Portrush was deemed too small by organizers to handle the infrastructure required of a modern Open.

“If you’d have asked me 10, 15 years ago, would we ever have the Open Championship,” Darren Clarke, who won the British Open in 2011, said a month ago, “I’d have looked at you as if you’d been in the pub for too long.”

This week, after nearly 70 years, Royal Portrush completes a return to the Open spotlight, presenting itself to an audience largely unfamiliar with the striking landscape that places it among the world’s top dozen courses.

Even with such star power as the world No. 1 Brooks Koepka, Rory McIlroy, Dustin Johnson, Tiger Woods and the defending champion Francesco Molinari, Royal Portrush might generate the biggest buzz.

“I’m sure it’s going to be an amazing atmosphere,” Molinari said. “It was impressive to see how quickly all the tickets were sold initially.”

With a cap on ticket sales prompted by Royal Portrush’s smaller size, all 190,000 were sold within seven weeks. A new block of tickets sold out in days, and no walk-up tickets are available.

“The whole town is exciting, the whole atmosphere,” said Clarke, who grew up about an hour away from the course. “It’s going to be an incredible week.”

It is a sentiment shared by golf’s other two major champions produced by Northern Ireland: McIlroy and the Portrush native Graeme McDowell.

“I haven’t tried to hide the fact that I’m playing a major championship basically at home,” said McIlroy, who holds the Royal Portrush course record after shooting 61 as a 16-year-old. “I didn’t know if I’d ever have an opportunity to do that.”

[Read more on how McIlroy made a name for himself at Royal Portrush.]

Royal Portrush will not have to wait so long for another Open, with a commitment from the R&A organizers to bring two more Opens there by 2040.

The club is along Northern Ireland’s northern coast, a land of heaving terrain and craggy cliffs that overlook white sandy beaches.

Just to the east are the ruins of Dunluce Castle, dating from the 13th century, which was used as the Castle Greyjoy in “Game of Thrones.”

The club dates from 1888, offering a new pastime to visitors in the resort town, and was given its royal designation four years later. Tom Morris, a four-time British Open winner commonly known as Old Tom Morris to differentiate him from his son, designed the original layout.

The Irish Amateur Open played its first edition at Royal Portrush in 1892, and the first professional event on Irish soil came along three years later.

In 1929, the English golf course architect Harry Colt overhauled Royal Portrush, routing the new Dunluce Links closer to the sea. As Britain emerged from World War II, Royal Portrush was asked to host the Open in 1951.

Faulkner built a six-stroke lead through three rounds of that tournament, aided by a bold play at No. 16 in the third round. With a wayward drive leaving his ball against some steps straddling a barbed-wire fence, he hit a 4-wood that eventually took a hard right turn and bounded onto the green to save par.

“That’s the greatest shot I’ve ever seen,” Frank Stranahan, his playing partner, said afterward.

Faulkner cruised home to win by two over Antonio Cerdá of Argentina.

Among those smitten by the course was Bernard Darwin, a golf writer who described Colt’s creation in The Times of London as “a monument more enduring than brass.”

“Altogether I find it hard to imagine a more admirable test of golf,” Darwin said.

The call to host another Open never came, even as Royal Lytham and Royal Birkdale each held three editions over the next 15 years, and St. Andrews was the site for four. Royal Portrush did hold the 1960 Amateur Championship and the Irish Amateur in 1952 and ’57.

“In the 1980s and early 1990s, nobody wanted to come to Northern Ireland, let alone to play golf,” Wilma Erskine, the club’s secretary for 35 years, told the Open’s website. “We were struggling a bit.”

The R&A awarded the British Amateur to Royal Portrush in 1993. The Senior Open followed two years later, won by Brian Barnes, Faulkner’s son-in-law.

The Irish Open came in 2012, setting a European Tour attendance record of 112,000. Nonetheless, R&A officials still wondered if Royal Portrush was too small to handle a British Open.

The R&A felt that the 18th hole was hemmed in by the clubhouse, allowing no room for the grand seating that creates an amphitheater around the Open’s final hole. Corporate hospitality had no room to build. Local infrastructure was inadequate.

“There would be much work to do for an Open to go to Portrush,” Peter Dawson, then the R&A’s chief executive, said at that Irish Open.

Clarke was not taking that for an answer. Along with McDowell and McIlroy, they kept the quest in front of Dawson and others.

“I’d be speaking to him,” Clarke said, “and would just subtly slip it in all the time and tell him, ‘It’s good enough, it’s good enough.’ And he listened.”

With commitments from the club and local government to improve the infrastructure, including a change that would incorporate two holes from Royal Portrush’s second course, the R&A awarded the club the 2019 Open.

The 17th and 18th holes have been eliminated in the Open configuration, with two new holes inserted late into the front nine. One is the 590-yard seventh hole, with an elevated tee that forces golfers to choose whether they want to take on the huge Big Nellie bunker guarding the right.

No. 8 is the other new hole; the original seventh hole will be No. 9, and so on. Royal Portrush’s most famous hole — the 230-yard, uphill par-3 known as Calamity Corner — will now play as the 16th, followed by the potentially drivable par 4 No. 17.

“It’s an accuracy golf course tee to green,” McDowell said. “Even with the slight lack of rough, it’s still penal if you miss it in the wrong places off the tee.”

Clarke suggested golfers that would quickly have to figure the best landing areas off the tee, some of which won’t require the big stick.

“If they’re trying to go with driver everywhere,” he said, “they’ll probably only wear half the clothes that they brought with them.”

Translation: They will likely miss the cut.

“I think the guys are going to absolutely love it because a lot of them will never have played there before,” Clarke said. “For all the people who are lucky enough to go, it’s going to be a week that they’ll remember.”
