I recently re-watched the great Spider Baby. A quite strange movie for something being shot in 1964. Some really interesting extra material on the DVD as well. — |

That's a great scene from Spider Baby. If I remember correctly, that was the first role ever for that young actress. She seemed so detached and vacant throughout the film compared to the more experienced, camera savvy actress who played her sister. The creepy kid sub-genre is one of my favorites. From Bad Seed to The Omen to The Brood, The Exorcist... — |

My band used clips from the 1960 film, Horror Hotel(a.k.a. City of the Dead),for a promo video. It's in the public domain, available at archive.org, and well worth watching on Halloween. The video tweaks the narrative a bit, but the film is big on atmosphere, with lots of fog, hooded shapes, graveyard crosses and a witch burning. Christopher Lee stars, also! — |

Yep, you remember it correctly. Jill Banner was apparently a novice while the girl who played her sister had a background as a child actress. Despite that, I really like what Banner did with her role. From the DVD extra material I also learned that she was Marlon Brando's secret girlfriend for many years before getting killed in a car accident in the early 80's. She was also a classmate of Carl Wilson! — |

I just watched "City of the Dead" 1960, a British film with Christopher Lee. It was released in the U.S. as "Horror Hotel"--(a much more sensational title with a poster to match)! I love the artwork, but the movie itself is much less lurid, and actually very moody and creepy but in a more subtle way. Lots of atmosphere, shadows and fog all filmed in b&w. Surprisingly , the protagonist gets killed half way through the movie a la "Psycho" which I did not see coming! |

Pet Sematary was the scariest movie I've seen. I was 19, in the U.S. Army stationed at Ft. Benning, GA when it was released, and went to see it at one of the movie theaters in Columbus, GA. When I'm back at my barracks, about to go to bed, here I am 19 years old, full of piss 'n' vinegar, can kill with my bare hands if need be...and I check under my bunk for the boogy man before I climb in. As to Pantasm, a bunch of us in a unit I was TDY (temporary duty) with, at Dugway Proving Grounds, UT, were watching this one in the barracks dayroom, one Saturday. The scene where they're in a hallway, and he's shooting the orbs with a shotgun...on the third one he shoots, I yell "PULL!" A couple of my buddies nearly fell off the sofa with that one. —Fast Cars & Loud Guitars! |

I finally caught The Cabin in the Woods (Joss Whedon/Drew Goddard) last night, and was pleasantly surprised by pretty much everything; story, makeup effects, acting, etc. — |

The first really scary movie I saw was The Blob. I was eight years old and it had just come out, so I saw it in a first-run theater. It was wonderful. Steve McQueen, cool girls, hot rods, the scene in the movie theater when I think everyone glanced back to the projection booth at least once. And the ever growing Blob. Just a great film. It remains one of my favorites to this day. Plus, I get to eat at the diner whenever I feel like a short drive. The movie theater is still there too. And BlobFest! How cool is that? http://theblobsite.filmbuffonline.com/category/locations/ —This is Noel. Reverb's at maximum an' I'm givin' 'er all she's got. |

One of my favorites. I accidentally started watching the remake and it was awful. The Changeling with George C Scott is also one of my top 5 fav scary movies. —Shawn Martin |
