Sounds good. I got my first DVD player for Christmas, so I can at long last enter the 21st Century (as my daughter pointed out gleefully). I've never seen the...

Sounds like a winner to me. I can tell even from repeated watchings of the Raymond Burr version of Godzilla that there is richer story hidden behind the quick...
I've purchased fine "gray market" tapes of subbed/boxed kaiju films, too, at local cons. However, most Americans still have only seen the dubbed/modified...

Thought folks might be interesting in this Friday lineup on AMC. Sounds like a good day to call in sick! :) Actually some of the later lineup goes into early...
Thanks for the reminder. The Last Days of Planet Earth looks to be a bit of fun. I got to see a bit of teenager fluff called Panic in Year Zero (I think I have...
Talk about weird movies! I caught this odd effort this morning on the Sci-Fi network. It's a vintage, low-budget, B&W 1966 affair starring William Shatner and...
After my last post I "googled" Incubus and William Shatner and I discover this weird little flick is a bonafide cult fave. Who knew!? I can see why it might...
Personally, I love PIYZ. It's done in a very straightforward manner, with no attempts made to cater to drive-in mentality (mutants, monsters or go-go...
You make it sound quite appealing. I only got to see about a half- hour of the movie and that was after the family was already on the road attempting to escape...
Is it Esperanto, or is it a Germanic language, Dean? I've read somewhere that Shatner spoke some Swedish or Danish or whatever when he was young, although I...
The description said Esperanto, and it mostly sounded like broken Latin for the most part. I didn't realize Shatner was bilingual...both English and...

Hi everyone! Check out Bela Lugosi and Boris Karloff in THE RAVEN from 1935, this Sunday, March 21 on TCM: 6:30pm EST. Great Universal horror film! Mark...
This IS my favorite movie. It has been for many years. The premise, the pacing, the action, the acting, the setting, the theme, all work elegantly together to...
Hi Dean, I'm not a fan of colorization, in a sort of curmudgeonly way, so not really sure if that would in any way enhance my enjoyment of this classic film,...
Before a couple of days ago, I'd never seen this entry in the Universal canon. I've seen Dracula of course, and I've even come across Dracula's Daughter, but...
I have loved Son of Dracula since first seeing it a few years backl. It's a bit off the beaten path for Universal's Dracula story but it's definitely worth the...
Hi Dean, I'm a bit of a late bloomer when it comes to appreciating this 40's version of the Dracula tale, primarily because of how much I love Lugosi, that it...
Your point that Dracula actually is a supporting role in this movie is the key to its unusual feel. It certainly frees up the story to move in different...
Hi there. Just after Son of Dracula debuted Lugosi did his own modern day reworking of the vampire myth with a Columbia picture called Return of the Vampire,...
I've had this one for several years, and at the time I was curious how it fit into the Dracula mythos. It's clearly supposed to be Lugosi as Dracula, but of...
Hi there. I quite like the idea of Dracula having a werewolf sidekick but its appearance is marred by the fact that it looks like a rather cute terrier, it...
