Ils ont découpé Youpi en morceaux pour en faire des coussins. 😱https://www.centris.ca/fr/maison~a-vendre~westmount/16675472?view=Summary&uc=13
Photo of the interior of a house for sale. It's a living room. There are several windows in the back. There is a training machine and a drum set. There's a mirror on one wall. A carpet covers part of the room, and on it is a glass table. In the middle of the room is a large, L-shaped couch on top of which are three orange, fluffy cushions that resemble Youpi, the mascot of the Montreal Canadiens.

Being pansexual is like, yeah, sure there's Mr. Darcy but also Jennifer Ehle as Elizabeth is 😍
Image from the 1995 BBC adaptation of "Pride and Prejudice". In the blurry background is some greenery (trees or bushes). In the foreground, on the left side (from our perspective) is Hugh Grant as Mr. Darcy, wearing time-appropriate dress. On the right side is Jennifer Ehle as Elizabeth Bennet. Her curly hair is up in a bun. She wears a light-coloured dress.

"pack this"
A cardboard box. In it are piles of books (the top ones are Danya Ruttenberg's On Repentance and Repair, and Daniel Guérin's L'anarchisme), as well as my ginger cat, Simba. He's looking down, trying to "dig" into the books, his tail stretching out of the box.

I have not yet named him. The SPCA called him Michel.

I'm leaning towards Zathras.
Photo of my new cat, a not-so-short-haired black cat with yellow eyes. He is just in front of my, lying on the lower bunk bed. His face and some of his torso are in the frame.

Ingrid Pitt in The Vampire Lovers (1970)

About a dozen horseradish roots, unprepared, in a gray bin.

Photo of the view from my bedroom window: our field covered in freshly-fallen snow. A red shed is on the right side. In the distance is a forest. The leaves are almost all gone from the trees, but there are several coniferous trees.

48. The Bad Seed (1956)

I will not claim Rhoda was the first Creepy Child in horror, ever, but she was certainly one well before it became a very common thing. Watch with non-horror Mildred Pierce (1945), if you want.
Screen capture of the 1956 film The Bad Seed. A blonde-haired girl with two braids looks at her mother, a hand against her face.

47. Les Yeux sans visage (Eyes Without a Face) (1960)

A haunting film. A woman is in a car accident that leaves her disfigured. Her father wants to graft a new face to her, so he seeks a, um, "donor". (he kills women for the skin)
Screen capture of the 1960 film Eyes Without a Face. A woman (Édith Scob) stands in a room with curtained windows. A white mask covers her face, only exposing her eyes.

45 and 46. (The) Little Shop of Horrors (1960 and 1986)

Why, yes, another original and remake pair. The remake is a musical; both are funny.
Screen capture of the 1986 film The Little Shop of Horrors. Rick Moranis stands on the right side, his back to us, facing Audrey II, which is a large potted plant with its "mouth" open, showing a tongue and teeth.

44. Black Sabbath (1963)

Known in Italian as I tre volti della paura (Three Tales of Fear). An anthology, obviously. Unequal, as those tend to be, but worth a watch overall.
Boris Karloff in the 1963 film Black Sabbath. An old man with a fur hood.

36-43. Corman's Poe Cycle (1960-1964)

On a total budget of 12$ (adjusted for inflation), Roger Corman directed 6 movies based on the works of Edgar Allan Poe (sort of, because some are loose, and one is a story by Lovecraft). And he did a marvelous job.

My favourite is The Masque of the Red Death.
Screen capture of the 1964 film The Masque of the Red Death. Two character stand in a white room. To the left, tall Prospero (Vincent Price), looking at Juliana (Hazel Court).

35. Kwaidan (1964)

An anthology of four stories based on a book by Lacfadio Hearn, who compiled it from existing Japanese folklore. It includes the Yuki-onna (snow woman) like in 34, but also other stories.

It is an absolutely beautiful movie. It made me find the world itself more beautiful.
Screen capture of the 1964 film Kwaidan. In a frozen, snow-covered building, a man lies on the floor. A pale woman, dressed in white, with long black hair, crouches in front of him.

34. The Snow Woman (1968)

My review says "Beautiful, eerie and sad".
Screen capture of the 1968 film The Snow Woman. A pale woman with long, dark hair, looks down. She is dressed in white, but the close-up hides most of her body. Behind her is the ceiling of a frozen wooden building.

33. Viy (1967)

Based on a Nikolai Gogol story, it is actually one of the very, very few Russian movies I have watched. Yet another atmospheric one, with fairy tale motifs.

One of my favourites on this list.
Screen capture of the 1967 film Viy. A woman with long, straight, black hair, stands up and looks at the camera. She has a crown of flowers on her head. Behind her is a crypt lit with many candles.

32. Kuroneko (1968)

Shindô Kaneto is probably better known for Onibaba, released four years earlier, but I preferred this one. A sad story.

Warning that the movie starts with rape. It's a rape revenge story, which may not be for everyone.

As a side note, "kuroneko" means black cat.
Screen capture of the 1968 film Kuroneko. Close-up of a woman with hikimayu.

31. The Yôkai Monsters movies.

Heavier on the fantasy than on the actual horror. A trilogy of Japanese movies from the late 1960s.
Screen capture of the 1968 film 100 Monsters. Two characters in historical Japanese dress (a woman, and a man holding a paper lantern), stand on the left side and look to the right at an umbrella with an eye and a tongue (actually a kasa-obake, a type of yôkai).

30. The Vampire Doll (1970)

Some movies are an atmosphere. This is one.
Poster for the 1970 film The Vampire Doll. A colourful poster, splashed with blood. On the top right, a character with yellow eyes looks down at the rest. In the bottom and middle, a woman in a white dress carries a knife. At the bottom left, a man looks scared, holding out his hands.

29. Don't Torture a Duckling (1972)

This is obviously a movie you first look into because the title makes you curious.

Someone is killing children in a small Italian town. A reporter investigates.

Warning for some values dissonance regarding mental disability as well as sexuality.
Screen capture of the 1972 film Don't Torture a Duckling. Close-up of a child of about 10, staring at the camera.

28. Theatre of Blood (1973)

Vincent Price's character taking FABULOUS revenge on the critics that wronged him.
Screen capture of the 1973 film Theatre of Blood. Vincent Price, wearing a suit and a cape, sits on a throne. A character with sunglasses stands next to the throne, leaning on it. Behind them is a theatre scene that includes a banner that reads "Critics Circle Awards 1970) (the word "Critics" is only partially visible).
