Have not gotten through all of them, but really enjoying the Jean Rollin films on Criterion. Atmospheric, lyrical, a little smutty, a lot gothic. All about 90 minutes. Really fitting the October mood #criterionchannel

heretical priests and strange sex magick rituals! in the 70's satanists were quite dedicated to attempts to birth a new dark overlord....whatever happened to that?? Less some of the (light) gore and nudity, felt like something from Mystery! in the 80's when that show was a bit weirder.

This deserved a big bowl of popcorn/large soda. Scuzzy, campy, surprisingly energetic and still current. Absolutely atrocious early 80's fashions, and a NYC you probably don't want to re-visit. Absolutely luminous Zoe Tamerlis, knew nothing about her (or her sad short life).

One of those movies I will continue to think about, randomly, for a long long time. Just gets darker and darker as it moves along. Also need to track down the Cheever short story! #criterionchannel

Coogan's Bluff (1968) - in the Criterion Channel's "Fun City" collection. A minor Eastwood, not a must-see. The "filthy cities filled with crooks, bureaucrats, and ethnics" remains a GOP narrative today. Hippie club scene is kind of fun, as is the late 60's decor and clothing. Good support cast.

I generally eschew 80's movies but damn Crossing Delancey (1988) is a quietly charming little romantic comedy. It's "80's" in the setting but feels timeless. Beautiful score from The Roches. Joan Micklin Silver collection on the Criterion Channel.

Which town you gonna watch The Ave in???

RIP Anthony's (last day)
