The Spell (1977)- "Misery chases overweight teen Rita Matchett (Susan Myers), who is rejected by her classmates and ridiculed by her sister, Kristina (Helen Hunt), but when the brooding outcast discovers her telekinetic powers, her thoughts turn from inner loathing to outright revenge."

Made for TV movie.........a great little flick in the grand tradition of the Golden Age of TV horror, the 70s!! Great acting, great story, and a great twist of an ending that caught me completely by surprise. Scatter gives it 8 bananas out of 10.

Will have to look that one up Scatter. As soon as the little one falls asleep we'll be watching The Thing From Another World.

MAD DOCTOR OF BLOOD ISLAND (1968)

I first saw this flick at the Drive-In, co-featured with BLOOD DEMON, when I was 12 or 13 years old.  It's a sequel to BRIDES OF BLOOD (that I watched last week).  Directed by Gerardo de Leon & Eddie Romero & filmed in the Phillipines.  Once again, creepy jungle scenes, naked island babes, gore galore and a green-blooded monster/mad doctor.  Stars John Ashley, Angelique Pettyjohn & Ronald Remy.  Not as good as Brides of Blood and some of the camera work was dizzying, but I still enjoyed it immensely as a blast from my monster-kid past.

Next up in the Blood Island series, BEAST OF BLOOD - really looking forward to this one!

How is that working for you? Are you hard wired into the router or wireless? Our wireless not working for Netflix

Wireless, through both the Wii and the Roku box. Did you go through the setup?? What are you using to capture the Netflix stream?? You can't just pull it from the router to your TV without an intermediate "catcher" like a Wii or a Roku or some DVD/Bluray players, or a TIVO hooked to your broadband. Do you have any of these Rob??

We actually got Sony BluRay disk players and my wife/step daugher tried to link from downstairs to router upstairs via wifi. I have not yet tried in the TV room, but friends and co-workers here say that the wireless is too ineffective.

I hate to advocate drugs, alcohol, violence, or insanity to anyone, but they've always worked for me.

U.P.   some of my favorites of the Al Adamson/Sam Sherman collection. Have you watched, Brain of Blood yet?

If you can stream from the router upstairs to your computer with no trouble, then you can stream Netflix. It's very adaptable to various stream strengths. Put it this way.............I watch streaming Netflix at work with a 4" parabolic dish stealing a signal from a house 1/4 of a mile away.

In your Blu-Ray player, are you able to get to a menu where it searches for a WiFi signal?? Does your Blu-Ray have wireless capability??

Here is a list of all the compatible devices you can use to capture the Netflix stream:

Yep I've gotten it on my laptop. Like I said, I have not yet tried it so it may be no big deal...just polling for experiences--and thanks!

Love the Blood island series!

I watched The Witches Mountain(1970) a disturbing Spanish film about , well, witches. It was fairly creepy and I thought it's storyline predated Blair Witch Project by decades. Of course perhaps the scariest element was the lead male's thick 70's moustache

Caught this on TV while my daughter was taking a nap. First horror/monster movie in awhile!

The ending always left me thinking. Cheesy 80's vibe running through out the movie, but it is John Carpenter.

Piranha(2010)...pretty entertaining, if only for all the hotties running around.

Doctor Who: Masque Of Mandragora(1976)..vintage WHO with Tom Baker at his best battlling the Cult Of Demnos and the Mandragora Helix in 1492 Italy!

DARK SHADOWS:

Plus it has Alice Cooper as a creepy homeless guy and ALice did an awesome song for the movie too.
