After rewatching the 1990 Night of the Living Dead remake, I’m amazed at how Tony Todd was able to exactly convey the frustration of losing a long board game, then discovering you would’ve drawn the winning item on your next turn.

This will be my first time attending The Frida cinema's 12-hour all-night horror movie marathon, Camp Frida.

Are there any regulars out there with advice for a first timer?

Enjoying a double feature of William Castle flicks at the New Beverly.

William Castle, Robert Bloch, Paul Frees, Vic Mizzy & William P. McGivern…

It’s like someone was filling out the Bingo card of my brain.

Do you have any films that you love so much that you feel you’re legally obligated to see them if they ever come back to theaters?

About to see a midnight screening of my obligatory film, The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai at the New Beverly.

Got to enjoy a trio of vintage Acquanetta flicks at the New Beverly: Captive Wild Woman, Jungle Woman and Dead Man’s Eyes. As expected, the Inner Sanctum mystery was the best, with a great performance from Thomas “Cadwallader” Gomez.
