Listen! 🧚♀️ I'm sick of the mediocre and scathing attacks on this classic southern swamp gothic of nature (and family) eating the rich. Is it padded? Yes, with gorgeous Florida Everglades & every freaking reptile you can think of! Do the frogs eat anyone? That's not the point! Sit down, bitch!
Argento utterly dazzles with arguably his last classic giallo. The glorious style and startling set pieces kick logic to the kerb as it hits the brief bullseye. 1987 #horrorcommunity #horrorfamily #horrormovie #horrorfilm #horrorfan #italianhorror #horroraddict #film #horrorsky #mutantfam #horrorfam
"In science-fiction films, the monster should always be bigger than the leading lady". Roger Corman 70 years ago this month (It Conquered The World) Corman's second genre offering is released onto an unsuspecting audience. Rubber monster madness!
One day late but happy release day (31st July) to #TheLostBoys #joelschumacher's greatest high camp #lgbt vampire film in disguise! I still believe!

"Each picture has some sort of rhythm which only the director can give it. He has to be like the captain of a ship." 🎬 Legendary German-American filmmaker #FritzLang #DOTD 2 August 1976. #Film #Filmmaking
Rewatching classic Who. I've discovered that my love of Doctor Who as a kid wasn't just the fun stories and spooky atmosphere, but moments like this, while a professor is rambling on and on and the Doctor is suffering and unable to mask it. Little Ben felt seen.
The World Documentary Repository: J is for Joris Ivans. Dutch documentarian who blended avant-garde visual poetics with militant left-wing political activism to capture global conflicts, anti-colonial struggles, and human labour across six decades, as illustrated by The Spanish Earth (1937).
Five Dolls for an August Moon (1970) A group of millionaires and their wives on a secluded island vacation to strong arm a professor into selling his formula. When he doesn't it turns into 10 Little Indians. I love this Mario Bava giallo more every time I see it. Ira von Fürstenberg & Edwige Fenech

🚩Un musée à l'abandon jouxtant une route poussiéreuse, se veut le théâtre de crimes sordides dans #TouristTrap (1979), de David Schmoeller. Truffé de mannequins grimaçants, ces derniers semblent s'animer et mener la vie dure à d'impuissants voyageurs égarés... Divinement surréaliste et anxiogène.
LW: Achilles Returns (2026). Less an Odyssey mockbuster, more a micro budget spin off, Achilles now in the modern day fighting Medusa: the star also wrote/directed/hummed the music, it’s filled with stock footage and it’s still only 50 minutes long. Painfully earnest and genuinely hilarious.
House of Wax (1953) Directed by André De Toth starring Vincent Price with Carolyn Jones and Charles Bronson. A remake of the 1933 film Mystery of the Wax Museum.

According to the IMDb, SQUIRM opened OTD 50 years ago today, Jeff Lieberman's horror flick about carnivorous worms - with hooks for mouths! - driven to the surface of the earth. Tons of icky fun, and a great evocation of sultry Georgia heat. I have this early Drew Struzan poster on my wall.
It raised awareness of classic literature confirmed Whales genius and made an icon of Karloff. They dont call them the greats for nothing. 1931. #horrorcommunity #horrorfamily #horrormovie #horrorfilm #horrorfan #classichorror #horroraddict #filmsky #horrorsky #mutantfam #horrorfam #boriskarloff
