Monster of the Day #3094

Another really ’70s kind of deal was the Amicus anthology films, which themselves always featured fabulous casts. Asylum is one of the lesser ones, but it’s still pretty good. If one story isn’t that great, wait 15 minutes and you’ll get another, generally better one.

    I thought the wrapped-up breathing head was pretty creepy. And is this the one with the wooden Indian? I recall that one used some very well-known classical music to score his rampage.

    Another great film here. I’ve got it on DVD but it’s been a while since I’ve watched it.

    And I mean who here hasn’t had a least one nightmare of a doll with the face of Herbert Lom???

    BTW: I’ve got some more monsters if you want them Ken. I don’t want to be pushy but if you can use them…

    This is the film that ended the screening of horror movies at Pop’s high school. The sequence with the dead wife’s crawling body parts freaked out a bunch of the students. Because of this, Pop was never able to convince the school board to run INVASION OF THE SAUCER MEN!

  • What helps is that a fair chunk of Amicus’s anthologies were written by the great Robert Bloch. The man was good.

    Ha, two rather different movies!

    He deserves to be remembered for far more than just Psycho.
