I would love to write more about Elvira. Hope the Muses hear my call. This one's from 2016 on Psycho Drive-In. psychodrivein.com/abcs-horror-...

Cassandra Peterson, however, will always be the Hostess with the Mostess, the Queen of Halloween, the Mistress of the Dark, and for that we can never thank her enough.

I covered Scott Schirmer twice on Director Roundup. His newest film Gush is having its world premiere June 7. If you know any of these films, check the comments for where his other films are streaming. Headless is unique though. It's a sort of spinoff from Found but directed by Arthur Cullipher.

Branded to Kill
1967
Seijun Suzuki’s Branded to Kill (1967) came in at work. First time watching it, a great hitman movie. I kept thinking it felt like a Maya Deren hitman movie.

Sexy Beast (2000)
Put in Sexy Beast from my curiosity pile, directed by Jonathan Glazer. Ben Kingsly's character is one for the books. Great parallel editing scene in the second half of Beast after Ray Winstone goes to the heist job Kingsley was trying to get him to do.

Book haul. I don’t know all these authors, but they came in a pile with Guy N Smith and James Herbert books that I am waiting to be priced. And it was all from the same person so it seemed like a good recommendation for
the authors I don’t know .

Put in I Walked with a Zombie. Love Jacques Tourneur and Val Lewton’s work. It’s not often a work is called so-and-so’s work. Oftentimes a Lewton produced movie is Val Lewton film. I have no problem with that. Great atmospheric dread.

First time watching Deadly Games (1982). Good slasher flick with some good twists and great dialogue/acting from Jo Ann Harris. I felt like they were trying to go satirical a lot like Pretty Maids All in a Row but they wound up with a by the book slasher film.
