Planet of the Vampires (1965)
Dir. Mario Bava

Oozing with Bava-ish visual style and atmosphere, two crews land on a spooky colour-soaked planet where the locals hijack corpses, turning space exploration into a gothic séance with ray guns & fog machines.

Tonight's 🎥: Sunset Boulevard (1950, dir. Billy Wilder). The best film about films ever made? Undoubtedly. One of the all-time great movies, stuffed with an embarrassment of riches, from the writing to performances to production design, cinematography and direction. Savage, melancholy, brilliant.

ANIMAL CRACKERS (1930) just entered the public domain and it's already on Tubi (and elsewhere).

I remember its 1979 TV premiere on CBS, after decades of unavailability due to rights issues.

I hope a new generation discovers the Marx Bros. now, just like I did then. #FilmSky #PublicDomain

Pretty much my favourite Madness B-side—The Business. Sure it's just an instrumental version of Take It or Leave It, but, still, as an instrumental, it is fab! A great little foot-tapper. #NowPlaying 🎶🎵🏁

Cannibal Holocaust (1980)
Dir. Ruggero Deodato

Ah yes, one of the most controversial films of it’s era. Also the first found footage horror flick, literally.
Exploitation 101. It’s a rough one, proceed with caution.

America invented the western, but Italy put their own spin on the genre with the spaghetti western, and we think these are the best of them.

I couldn't remember what Fackham Hall resembled until I saw Keep It Up Downstairs, an 'oh er missus' British 1976 comedy.
Hazel Adair is the writer, Jack Wild, Willie Rushton and Diana Dors are all in the cast, and it's all more British than a toad in the hole. 3/5
