In article <memo.421876@cix.compulink.co.uk> you write: > >>The line "it's in the trees, it's coming" in K8's song >>"Hounds of Love"... what's that from? A film? >>Or did she and Paddy and Del and the gang just cook >>that one up on their own? > >This may be one of many replies... > >I believe that it is a sample from the 1957 film "Night of the Demon" >("Curse of the Demon" in the USA). ...with an original title of "Casting The Runes." An in-joke about this appears in the lyrics of "Science-Fiction Double Feature," the song over the titles of "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." Thanks again to the person who pointed out the connection between "Curse Of The Demon" and "The Line, The Cross & The Curve."
