Return to Nuke'Em High Volume 1 (2013) Lloyd Kaufman

Many note the film’s pre-giallo tone—structurally, visually (but also, duh, Cornell Woolrich source code)—yet the comparison feels most precise in the stylistic overlap between its graveyard set piece and the park-after-dark sequence in Four Flies on Grey Velvet!

The watershed first Italian horror film of the sound era from Freda with an assist from uncredited Mario Bava. Stunningly shot and dripping in spooky style. 1957. #horrorcommunity #horrorfamily #horrormovie #horrorfilm #horrorfan #italianhorror #horroraddict #filmsky #horrorsky #mutantfam #horrorfam

Kuroneko. 1968. Two brutally murdered women return as shape shifting ghosts killing passing samurai. A stunning folk horror from the director of Onibaba. #horrorcommunity #horrorfamily #film #horrormovie #horrorfilm #horrorfan #classichorror #horroraddict #filmsky #horrorsky #mutantfam #horrorfam

Robot vs The Aztec Mummy. 1958. Last of the lovably threadbare Popoca trilogy and the best tatty mummy versus ropey robot film you'll ever see. Probably. #horrorcommunity #horrorfamily #film #horrormovie #horrorfilm #horrorfan #mexicanhorror #horroraddict #filmsky #horrorsky #mutantfam #horrorfam

Double feature…

The Phantom Carriage, Victor Sjöström, 1921

For all its excess & comic vulgarity, Tinto Brass' ALL LADIES DO IT (1992) is less cynical & ultimately more tender than “serious” romcoms, imagining intimacy as mutual recognition rather than overt control, with the possibility of love expansive enough to contain fantasy rather than repress it.

Recent Physical Media addition... on blu-ray ISLAND OF THE DOOMED [MANEATER OF HYDRA] (1967 - Dir. Mel Welles) Cast: Cameron Mitchell, Elisa Montes, Jorge Martin, Kai Fisher

Frankenstein (1931) Directed by James Whale and produced by Carl Laemmle Jr. stars Colin Clive as Henry Frankenstein and Boris Karloff as the monster.

McDowall is a delight as an odd curator living with a corpse and invoking a killer golem. Often overlooked but creepy fun and Jill Haworth's a joy. 1967. #horrorcommunity #horrorfamily #film #horrormovie #horrorfilm #horrorfan #classichorror #horroraddict #filmsky #horrorsky #mutantfam #horrorfam

Happy Birthday to the late Jesús Franco. He was born on this day in 1930
