Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 54.161.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 10:07, 1 October 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''''Red Kingdom Rising''''' is an independent [[Fantasy film|fantasy]] [[horror film]] written, produced and directed by Navin Dev. The film is inspired by [[Lewis Carroll]]'s 1865 novel ''[[Alice's Adventures in Wonderland]]'' and its 1871 sequel ''[[Through the Looking Glass]]''. It marks Dev's first feature-length film, following on from his similarly themed fairy tale short films.

==Plot==
Mary Ann has been tormented her whole life by dreams of a sinister figure called the Red King and his morbid fairytale kingdom. Following the death of her father, she returns to her family home where she recalls the childhood stories of the Red King and Alice from ''[[Alice's Adventures in Wonderland]]'' that her father once read to her. Within the decaying and neglected state of the gothic family house, Mary Ann soon discovers that her once highly religious and abusive mother is now secretly engaging in black magic.

A brutal bewitching attack from her mother propels Mary Ann into the twisted, fairy tale dream world of the Red King. In this dream world Mary Ann encounters an unlikely guide in the form of a mysterious, [[Cheshire Cat]] masked little girl calling herself Alice. Alice prompts Mary Ann to question the relevancy of the dreamscape and whether this is Mary Ann's dream or that of the Red King's.

Haunting events and emergence of suppressed memories force Mary Ann to unlock secrets of her painful childhood as she journeys through the realms of the dream world, landing in a final confrontation with the Red King. Mary Ann must face this embodiment of her childhood fears to forever gain closure to the pains and horrors of her past.

==Cast==
* [[Emily Stride (actor)|Emily Stride]]&nbsp;– Mary Ann
* [[David Caron]]&nbsp;– Father
* [[Silvana Maimone]]&nbsp;– Mother
* [[Etalia Turnbull (actor)|Etalia Turnbull]]&nbsp;– Alice

==Production==
Director [[Navin Dev]] was inspired by real accounts of adult survivors of child abuse and wanted to portray a symbolic, nightmarish world that evoked the psychological horrors they endured. Having researched [[Bruno Bettelheim]]'s ''[[The Uses of Enchantment: The Meaning and Importance of Fairy Tales]]'', Dev set the film within the fantasy horror genre as it would enable the film to be elaborated upon the mature and symbolic themes found in fairy tales.

Carroll's ''[[Alice's Adventures in Wonderland]]'' and in particular, ''[[Through the Looking-Glass]]'', were used as direct inspirations due to the ideas of dream reversal, occultism, and dream symbolism that Carroll presents in his work and that author [[Marc Edmund Jones]] elaborates on.((citation needed|date=December 2016))

Production of ''Red Kingdom Rising'' was achieved on a low budget, with pre-production commencing months prior to shooting in order to design and build the complicated character make up prosthetics as well as a full scale Red Kingdom dream world. Dev undertook extensive rehearsals with his cast, familiarising them with [[affective memory]] exercises in order to reach the complexity of the troubled characters.

Visual inspirations for ''Red Kingdom Rising'' ranged from [[Gustav Dore]]’s fable paintings, artist [[Mark Ryden]]’s work, numerous graphic novels to [[Jaromil Jireš]]' 1970 film ''[[Valerie and Her Week of Wonders]]''. Dev chose to shoot the film on the [[Super 16mm]] format due to its grainy and organic quality that would uphold the organic visual style of a fairy tale.

==Release==
''Red Kingdom Rising'' had its world premiere at the [[Portobello Film Festival]] at which it was nominated for the Best Horror Film award. It was also screened at the [[Gotham Screen Film Festival & Screenplay Contest]] in New York.

''Red Kingdom Rising'' won Best Fantasy Horror Film at the 2014 Feratum Film Festival - Mexico's largest genre festival in fantasy, sci-fi and horror.

A Special Edition US DVD of the film containing Navin Dev's short films and a [[5.1 surround sound]] mix of the film was released on [[Amazon.com]] on 28 April 2014 by the film's production company [[1406 Pictures Ltd]].

==Reception==
An early cut of the film had a private press screening at [[Wilton's Music Hall]] in London to which acclaimed critic and [[Empire (magazine)|Empire]] contributing editor [[Kim Newman]] attended. He said that the film had 'a nicely dense, imagistic feel and a grasp of the nightmarish, a study of a cracked psyche, using the tropes of scary children's stories....'

''Red Kingdom Rising'' has received many favourable reviews, most notably from UK genre film journalist [[MJ Simpson]] who described the film as 'a hugely impressive feature debut, a visual poem reminiscent of the masters of dreamlike cinema...'<ref>((Cite web|last=Simpson|first=Mj|date=2014-04-29|title=Cult films and the people who make them: Red Kingdom Rising|url=http://mjsimpson-films.blogspot.com/2014/04/red-kingdom-rising.html|access-date=2020-07-02|website=Cult films and the people who make them))</ref> and ''[[Flickering Myth]]'' who described it as 'an eerie and imaginative dark fantasy dreamscape with a visual style reminiscent of directors such as [[Tim Burton]] and [[Guillermo del Toro]]....'<ref>((Cite web|last=Collinson|first=Gary|date=2012-02-14|title=Movie Review – Red Kingdom Rising (2012)|url=https://www.flickeringmyth.com/2012/02/movie-review-red-kingdom-rising-2012/|archive-url=|archive-date=|access-date=2020-07-02|website=Flickering Myth|language=en-US))</ref>

''Red Kingdom Rising'' has been featured in history books; [[English Gothic: Classic Horror Cinema (1897-2015)]] by [[Jonathan Rigby]] and [[The History of British Literature on Film (1895-2015)]] by [[Greg M. Colon Semenza]] and [[Robert Hasenfratz]]. The latter described that 'to most viewers, [[Joss Whedon]]'s [[Much Ado]] won't look much different than an equally well-crafted 16mm film such as ''Red Kingdom Rising'', Navin Dev's 2014 horror adaptation of Lewis Carroll's Alice novels.'
