    Went with weird TV tonight instead of a movie: Episodes of Psychoville, Garth Marenghi's Dark Place and Tokyo Vampire Hotel. Last night was The Descent: Part 2 (Jon Harris, 2009). Kind of a waste of time, it was like The Descent: The Theme Park Ride.

        Watched part of Blood from the Mummy's Tomb last night, and will finish it up tonight. One of the few Hammer Horrors I hadn't seen. I know it kind of goes without saying for a Hammer movie, but Valerie Leon is gorgeous!

          Valerie Leon is THE reason to watch that film. Shame she didn't do more Hammer.

          Twins of Evil for me last night.

            ^Man, I LOVE Twins of Evil. Perhaps Peter Cushing's best performance. And I wish Damien Thomas had done more Hammer too. THERE'S your NEW Dracula, Hammer!

              I love Twins of Evil for pretty incouragable reasons.

                ^Well, I like it for those reasons as well, but its honestly less lurid and exploitative than it COULD be. Compared to The Vampire Lovers, it's practically chaste!

                I love that one too, and mostly for incorrigible reasons. Although it's a pretty faithful adaptation of Carmilla.

                  Vampire Lovers was the first movie I rented filled with nudity. I had seen half of it on TV and wanted to see the first part, the TV print was completely censored and i didn't see the movie coming. I own it on Blu Ray now, it seems so tame.

                  Not to hijack the thread (just read it's purpose) here is mine:

                  Hallween 2
                  Halloween 3
                  House that dripped blood
                  Psycho 2
                  House on Haunted Hill
                  Trick R Treat
                  Dawn of the Dead (original and remake)
                  Friday the 13th
                  The Old Dark House


                  I'm not big on slasher flicks, in fact I couldn't finish Friday the 13th (bored) but my wife is a quintessential 80s kid. I had high hopes my Blood Island set would arrive in time but later realised that it hasn't actually come out yet. Oh well.

                    I also watched Friday the 13th a few weeks ago, wasn't impressed. Jason doesn't show up until the second film but I'm not in any hurry to see it.

                    Jurassic Park is kinda a Halloween film. It really looked good on Blu-ray.

                          I think those are the same reasons I've never completely watched any of those films except Countess Dracula.
                          WANTED: Dick Grayson SI trousers; gray AJ Mustang horse; vintage RC Batman (Bruce Wayne) head; minty Wolfman tights; mint Black Knight sword; minty Launcelot boots; Lion Rock (pale) Dracula & Mummy heads; Lion Rock Franky squared boots; Wayne Foundation blue furniture; Flash Gordon/Ming (10") unbroken holsters; CHiPs gloved arms; POTA T2 tan body; CTVT/vintage Friar Tuck robes, BBP TZ Burgess Meredith glasses.

                            In my mind I thought Twins of Evil was more racy than it actually is. I think there is more nudity in the promotional material than the film itself actually.

                              I really like House That Dripped Blood!

                              They really found the right actor who looks the maniac part in the first story.

                              An actress that I enjoy watching for Halloween is Caroline Munro.

                              One movie that she is in that I really like is Captain Kronos: Vampire Hunter. It was also fun seeing her in Dracula A.D. 1972.

                                Kirk just told him he would be a natural for it.
