Writer/director/producer BERT I. GORDON, who was directing monster movies before Famous Monsters published its first issue, turns 100 in September.
Here's to you, Mr. B.I.G. 🍻
One a week, we must pause and remember:
It's #WerewolfWednesday
#watched THE LAUGHING WOMAN (1969)
A delightful slice of Eurocult weirdness about a journalist and the wealthy sadist who abducts and imprisons her in his fabulous pop-art lair. Featuring a typically fine score by Stelvio Cipriani.
From the new #Bluray by @MondoMacabroUSA
#watched SILENT NIGHT DEADLY NIGHT (1984)
It's nasty, it's meanspirited, it's in exceptionally bad taste. But everything that happens in this movie is a sliver of real life. Innit tho?

French artist Théodore Géricault (1791-1824) painted decapitated heads, severed limbs, and intact corpses from life: these were actual "models" from a morgue he visited. #art
Horror mask advertisements from the back of Horror magazines. Baby Stinky anyone?
#watched BLOW OUT (1981)
A sound editor capturing night noises for a horror movie inadvertently records a murder that the authorities would rather cover up than investigate. He wants to know why.
