I haven't always been much of a fan of Chaney Jr.(I've warmed up to him in recent years) but he's perfect in Spider Baby.

Irony.or.Death posted:we are now enemies hey, I recommended it didn't I? it's very entertaining and weird and worth watching, but it also makes no sense and the acting is bad. Even Lon Chaney flubs a bunch of his lines. also Sid Haig looks crazy young in it, I didn't even recognize him until like halfway through the movie

Having heard a small mountain of praise for Boxer's Omen, I embarked on a long, cruel search for the film. It seemed that no legal or otherwise means existed to see this gem. Was is slowly becoming a lost film? Nah, they posted the drat thing on youtube earlier this month! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Wjq43_WpMg This was one of the very few films that has lived up to it's hype. It's like a kung-fu flick directed by Alejandro Jodorowsky. No words, they should have sent a poet. See this!

OldTennisCourt posted:I know it's non movie related but any fan of horror needs to pick up Paperbacks from Hell if you like your horror insane, absurd and if you like amazing horror covers. It's a detailed, fun history of pulp paperback horror novels from the 60's to 90's. The worst part thought is there are tons of books I want to pick up but are ether out of print or way overpriced on Amazon. The best part is flipping through it and seeing ones you've read.

It's by Jack Hill, who is famous for the Pam Grier films Coffy and Foxy Brown, as well as the Corman exploitation films The Big Bird Cage and the Big Doll House (most famous of the women-in-prison movies). Spider Baby is probably his best/most fun besides the Grier films. Has anyone seen Jack Hill's movie Isle of the Snake People, starring Boris Karloff?

Yeah, they are a bit pricy for paperback, but ebook's not as bad. I believe they're gearing up for a second batch of books since this first one did pretty well.

fliptophead posted:Dunno if this will end up on screens in the States but just heard about Nekrotronik and thought this thread might be interested! Monica Bellucci as a demon succubus who wants to eat the souls of everyone in Sydney? I'm intrigued. I was maybe a little burnt out on horror comedy when I saw this last year and thought it was a little too stupid for my tastes, but YMMV. Belluci is really excellent in it though. I'd love to see her do more (serious) horror.

I just got the Region B LE of Rabid from 101 Films and was comparing the extras to the Region A from Scream Factory (they're the same 2K scan but totally different extras) here: http://www.dvdcompare.net/comparisons/film.php?fid=30837 What's the "Super 8 Version" that's exclusive to the Scandinavian Region B?

I was gonna watch Spider Baby for my 1968 movie last October, but the stuff I read made it sound really exploitative and I just had my fill of that by then. So instead I watched... checks notes The Astro-Zombies. I don't always make the right choices.

This just made me think that doing 30 Horror Movies that are also misfits songs maybe possible.... I know they never did Spider-Baby but I believe the Drummers spin-off band did(it was poo poo)

Restricting it to Danzig era stuff (the only stuff I know) you could do: The Misfits Night of the Living Dead Where Eagles Dare Astro-Zombies Halloween Halloween 2 Return of the Fly The Brain Eaters Blood Feast The Crimson Ghost Might have missed one or two. A few aren’t horror obviously. Edit: okay yeah I don’t listen to that poo poo but it seems like basically 3/4th of their post Danzig songs are named after a movie so you could do 30 no problem.

I saw the Harry Potter and the Cursed Child play for the first time, and it's not all that great. But man... I did not expect the amount of on stage body horror. There is one scene that involves the lady who sells candy on the trains revealing herself to by this Lovecraftian undying monster and doing this gnarly transformation on stage.

I do exactly what gey muckle mowser is talking about because I'm an all or nothing kinda person. I have very little self-control unless I just completely deprive myself of something(maybe an addictive personality?). So most of the year I really don't watch any horror unless something new comes out that's getting a lot of discussion. Rewatches outside of the specific thread challenges are verboten. Imagine if I allowed myself to watch From Beyond willy nilly whenever I felt like it. I'd lose my job and be homeless within a month.
