Images, 1972 - Retreat to a quiet, rural setting proves to be anything but.  (Does that ever work?)


Susanna York, Rene Aberjonois and Marcel Bozzuffi.

The Irish countryside lends a wonderfully creepy, isolated setting for this unnerving tale.

Not sci-fi and no monsters - but I still consider this one first-rate horror.  The first real indication that all is not well is really jarring for a first-time viewer who does not know it is coming.


Intriguing mind screw (UMA won't let me use the proper term) of a movie.

I think Philip K. Dick would have been a fan.

The Oblong Box, 1969 - Nineteenth century British adventurers run afoul of African natives and bring the results home to England, where they deal with them in the most interesting ways.

Vincent Price, Christopher Lee, William Atkinson and Peter Arne.

Voodoo curses, hidden relatives, body snatching, premature burials and Vincent Price - what more could you want?  Poe's name is invoked in the advertising, but don't expect this one to adhere to closely to anything by Eddie you may have read.

The Blu-Ray is a must.  It restores tiny bits of nudity and gore that were cut from the original British edit for squeamish U.S. censors.

Price and Lee have far too little to do together and the movie suffers from inadequate makeup.  I thought the frenetic voodoo dances were overdone - then the credits told me the dances were actually an African dance troop.  I felt slightly vindicated when I saw that the Witch Doctor was played by Danny Daniels.  Credits can be fun.


Still, fun romp through a period horror with established actors.

Devil's Whorehouse-aka-Dark Moon(1972) VHS

Any more info on this one?  I can't find anything on the net; always interested to hear/see something that might relate to a Misfits song title.

It may be another title. But the two VHS titles I own are the same film, with two different titles.. I went to iMDB, and nothing. Btw....I had forgot that song, from Walk Among Us.

Hmmmm.....maybe had yet another title or two?  I wonder if info can be tracked down using the plot or actors in it?

Hellhole, 1985 - A woman's mother is murdered in front of her, leaving her injured and with amnesia. She's sent to a mental institution where things just get worse - much worse.

Judy Landers, Mary Woronov, Ray Sharkey and Marjoe Gortner.


Pure '80's schlock.  But, what else would you expect from a movie that features former 4-year-old faith healer Marjoe Gortner in its cast?

Fun, if you don't have anything better to do.

Brain Dead, 1990 - The Eunice Corporation's "New You" outlets offer a brain operation that will give customers surcease of trauma and feelings of guilt or inadequacy and replace them with blissful peace of mind - if it doesn't leave them a driveling idiot.  What could possible go wrong?

Bill Pullman, Bill Paxton, Bud Cort and George Kennedy.

Roger Corman's daughter, Julie rescued this Charles Beaumont script from a 1960's pile of discards in her dad's files.  It is the only film that stars both Bills.


I was prepared to be really disappointed by this one, but it turned out to be a rather pleasant little charmer.
