Share a horror movie that begins with the letter "A" 🎥🖤

#talesofterrortuesday Sticks is Karl Edward Wagner’s 1974 story about a hiker discovering strange arrangements of bound sticks in a remote area of woodland. Eerie and unexplainable (no one lives out there), they are the first sign of a great horror. A Cthulhu Mythos story, among the best post-HPL

Bibliophile joy! Received my signed slipcase set of three #WeirdTales collections from PS Publishing. Incredibly handsome. This put a strain on my book budget but it’s OOP already & selling on eBay for 2X+ I paid. This has been in the works for a while: has Ray Bradbury & Gahan Wilson signatures!

Saw the Doomsday trailer. Zero interest. Am I now old? Is the story old? Is the market saturated? 1 reason I left comics decades ago was the seemingly mandatory crossover events. I remember splash pages of a 100 heroes standing shoulder to shoulder, doing nothing. Give me Spidey & the Human Torch

What painting, photograph, sculpture, or piece of visual art has stayed with you long after you first saw it? Not necessarily your favorite. The one that lingered. Theodor Kittelsen’s Nøkken is so menacing. A stump with fireflies? A creature waiting for you to get too close to the pond? Eerie

Today’s movie snippet is proving difficult, so here’s a hint: A Corman cheapie…..wait, they’re all cheapies It stars the greatest scream queen of the fifties

#frankensteinfriday In their 4th film in the series Hammer swung (and missed?) by transferring a soul rather than assembling or reanimating a body in Frankenstein Created Woman.

European royalty is shunned by the English because of a medical condition.

#werewolfwednesday In 1945’s House of Dracula Larry Talbot (Lon Chaney) begs to be jailed so he can’t kill as a werewolf. He then changes, charges the bars, & faints when he can’t escape. Weird… Why not do this every cycle? Apparently he gets a full night’s sleep. Makes his whining more annoying

#mummymonday Frankenweenie (2012) pays homage to classic horror, including Universal’s 1932 The Mummy. Nassor (voiced by Martin Short) stands in for Im-Ho-Tep & reanimates his mummified hamster Colossus. Sadly the resurrected rodent is no match for the Gamera-inspired beast Shelley & is stomped

What film is crying out for a sequel? 🖤 Dredd

#frankensteinfriday Hammer’s 3rd entry of the mad doctor was 1964’s The Evil of Frankenstein. Victor finds his early prototype creature & uses a hypnotist to waken its vegetative mind. Too bad the mesmerist’s a backstabbing creep… Notable for Universal’s permission to use their classic design
