The House That Dripped Blood is primo extravagant over-the-top 70s horror.

During our last showing we discussed the sci fi and horror novels of Ira Levin, and when I looked into it lo and behold there is a free copy of The Boys from Brazil up on Youtube. Seems fitting, our first 2020 scary movie was about a plague, number two is about clones and nazis. Any objections?
this is a great film for anyone who wants to see Gregory peck get into a fistfight at a formal event.

i really liked this movie. i think it's very good at just being a movie, by which i mean that the premise is kind of far out there but it never fully veers into scifi or horror terrority and instead plays out like a tuaght thriller.

i think my big takeaway is that this is the only one of the dozen or so film adaptions of the story that nails (or even accepts) the key premise--that morgan is the monster. and i think that's a shame because without that twist it's kind of a one-dimensional story.

are there any pro-zombie movies? My zombie apocalypse fantasy has always been to just join the zombies ASAP and we can work with them to build a better constitution and civilization with a much healthier environment since nobody needs all the disgusting living-human luxuries that taint the world.
Fido is kind of a pro-zombie movie?

the nice thing about old horror movies is that they are often more palatable for a wide audience. movies like slither and from beyond are great, but the gore factor can be off putting for some users.
that having been said... is ‘the serpent and the rainbow’ on YouTube? zakes mokae’s mean smile is the best practical horror effect I have ever seen.

maybe a ridiculously horrible 70s action film?
I know that covers a wide swath, but really anything with hideous clothes and bad fight choreography should be good for a movie night.

The prequel is also referenced in the classic Wu-Tang Clan track Wu-Tang Clan Ain't Nuthing ta gently caress Wit
"The Flying Guillotine" is also the name of the RZA's kung-fu cinema drafthouse on Staten Island: https://algae-lavender-a7n7.squarespace.com/
edit: I don't think it ever actually happened. Possibly another COVID fatality. I'm not going to Staten Island to find out.

Is this happening?
Also, I just can't get this past Saturday's movie out of my head. Even for an 80s film it just doesn't make a lick of sense.
On that note it inspired me to leave home to become a wandering martial arts fighter.
Have you decided which animal to emblazon on your cloak?

To be fair, Maximum Overdrive is only the second-worst movie to feature the Green Goblin. And I think it's probably in Emilio Estevez' top 5.

Anybody still up for The Great Rupert tonight? I was a little late getting to the channel, hope I didn't miss anybody (it's empty presently).
I'll stick around for a few more minutes just in case. http://www.psp-tv.com/r/BYOBmovies
Edit- Thanks everyone! That was a lovely evening, I love that movie more every time I see it. Happy holidays!
I really didn't know what to expect from this movie, but it was actually pretty great.
Sadly Rupert's real-life story did not have such a happy ending. He fell under the harsh spotlight of the McCarthy hearings and was blacklisted for his unabashed communist leanings. Deported, Rupert lived out the remainder of his life in Algiers where turned to drugs to cope with the loss of his craft and country. In his autumn years, Rupert converted to Islam and was able to come to terms with his tumultuous life. He died in 1963, surrounded by his 12 children, 102 grandchildren, and that droopy old guy who played the squeezebox.

Tonight, at midnight GMT, join us at http://psp-tv.com/r/BYOBmovies for another Christmas classic: 1945's The Cheaters!
![](https://i.imgur.com/LPl2UuA.jpg)
I've never heard of this one before but it's got a very interesting history: for any of you 'yobbers who were with me for the Summer of Serials, this is a Republic Pictures film! A Christmas screwball comedy feature from the people who made Black Whip, Spy Smasher and Captain Marvel. It's a really weird outlier, and from what I'm reading it was a staple of late-night local TV for decades, and has been released as Mr. M and the Pigeons, The Amazing Mr. M, The Magnificent Mr. M, The Magnificent Rogue, and The Castaway. Huh.
Plus cartoons and camaraderie! See you in five hours, friends!
From the poster I thought this was going to be a movie about old-timey swingers starring the Tom Baker Dr. Who. NGL I am a little disappointed that it's not.

This movie was deeply triggering for me because I have a beard, dated a bookish girl in grade school, spent a brief period in a psych ward, and my job involves having old white guys coerce me into publicly saying things that aren't true.
It was still a good time, tho.

very sad I missed this week, but always down to enjoy a bad movie, but selecting one will be tricky.
there are terribly bad bad movies like the room, and incredibly good bad movies like the original suspiria—and a whole spectrum in between.
much to think about.

BFM you should check out TransTales Youtube channel. It is 100% African animation, and although most of them are shorts, Mark of the Uru is just over an hour long. It's not as slick as what Pixar was doing in 2011, but it has a cool cell-shaded style. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HdaMi62RT_M

Can't really go wrong.
Either you go "woah that's good" or you go "lol that knife is smaller than my bread knife".
But I still call a film noir on my bday in Feb.

A couple of notes from last night:
- re Lord Kuruku: a pathologically lonely and bitter person using the power of hate to turn people into puppets and break up families is a very heavy methaphor that kind of eluded me while I was watching.
- re Unico: he is a truly tragic hero, because even though he can overcome great evil and spread love and friendship, he can never enjoy the peace and harmony that he brings, instead being whisked away to yet another desolate lonely world in need of his help.
- re me: I am a cat, and that's why I sing, sing a song, a song of meow meow meow.

You can rewrite the cat song to be about anything. Any animal you want. For example here is a good song to sing to my dog, King Francis, or for him to sing to himself:
It is my belief that this is what all animals are saying when they bark or meow or quack or whatever.
