Monster of the Day

It's been a while since we covered movies available for free on YouTube (although their out of nowhere commercial interruptions are pretty obnoxious).There seem to be a lot of very nice prints (presumably pirated) available there. Universal Video seems to be an official Universal channel. They don't have a lot of horror on there…

Speaking of screaming skulls.... So last Friday I did something I hadn't done in a long while; I went to a theater to see a movie. They were showing a bunch of Halloween themed films to try to pull people in. It wasn't working, as the lobby was a ghost town. I mean, it…

So with (yes) my Internet down again yesterday as they work in the area, I actually *gasp* watched a few of the huge pile of DVDs and Blu Rays I've bought this year. It's already been featured here, and I don't know if any of you have been lusting for years to see a…

By Monday we were down to Sandy, me and Chad R and Chad (the Rev). We started the day with German/Italian Screams in the Night, basically a hybrid krimi/giallo that kept threatening to cross over into the supernatural. It was OK, but honestly I had to look up the title off of Chad R's…

Is Fritz Lang the greatest director nobody talks about (maybe it's just in the States.) Arthur had never seen M--kids today--which might be Lang's masterpiece. I'm sure I'd put it in my top 20 films ever list. Anyway, you can never watch that one too much, so give it another look sometime. Next we…
