As usual, I have 95% of the movies on DVDs.

I don't know this 1972 CRESCENDO.  TCM's synopsis: "Research on a recently deceased composer gets a music student mixed up with his dysfunctional family.  Stephanie Powers..."

1972.  Early Stephanie.  Afternoon showing...

Sandwiched between a Hammer Frankenstein and a Hammer Dracula.  Hmmm...

After Halloween's midnight - technically Nov 1 - there are a bunch of David Lynch shorts from the '70s, it appears.  "Six Men Get Sick" - a cartoon about 6 characters vomiting.  Uhhh... and it seems to go downhill from there.  Amputee 2 is followed by Amputee 1.  Hmmm... Holy Eraserhead, Batman.

I don't know this 1972 CRESCENDO. 

Latter day HAMMER.

Oh great!  I thought it was a poor choice when Hammer trimmed out staff from their '50s crime-drama and mystery films, reducing their 'diversity' sometime in the '70s so all they were doing was churned out boiler-plate drive-in Dracs and Franks.  I'll definitely be paying attention to CRESCENDO.
