Jabootu's Bad Movie Dimension

This is the same as Monday's. Although torpidly paced, this film at least did some interesting things with the vampires. It does lean heavily on Horror of Dracula, a fact that fails them at the end when they try to recreate the former's climax. Still, they do give it the old college try. As…

Although they were still shooting in black and white in the mid-'60s, this still suggests the Italians did learn some lessons from Hammer.

"Hmmph. Brother, the thing's a girl's got to do to get a job in this town!" Watched this over the weekend, mostly because of a similar film Sandy Petersen and I tele-watched over the phone the weekend before. This one was weirdly coy, with the fangs not appearing until the film was two-thirds over.…

That's a lot stronger meat than I expected from an Atlas/Marvel horror comic. It really foretells The Manster, that's for sure. EC would have titled it "Split Decision" or something, though. Went to my childhood haunt the Pickwick theater last night, where my old friend Matt Hoffman ran Abbott & Costello Meets Frankenstein on…

Let's admit it, when you work at a place called "Horrormoor," your reputation is sort of baked in the cake. Meanwhile, that girl who stumbled in from an Archie comic must be horribly confused.

Sorry about yesterday, the site was down before I left for work, then I went out last night. Still, Halloween draws ever closer. "Lost in the Graveyard" seems the least of his problems. I really, really miss the day where you'd draw this and then toss in a bat to make it spookier.

It's Halloween week! I think I'll do some Marvel horror comics from the EC era. These look pretty sweet, although suspect they were rather tame compared to EC's stuff, given that it was the latter that led to the creation of the Comics Code. I assume The Ghost Still Walks because who can afford…

Another shot from The Thing prequel/redo. Not my bag, really. The extraction / healing so far has been pretty painless. Mostly it's about not disturbing the blood clot so you don't get a horrific sounding thing called dry socket. By Sunday I might try Mac & Cheese and see how that goes. So far…

I heard the 2011 prequel of The Thing was actually just more of a complete remake/rip-off, and thus quite lame. I didn't see it, though, so I have no evidence as to whether this is true.
