Halloween: It’s All About the Masks (Part Two)

Ten Posters I Like

An incredible image--that doesn't give away how campy the flick actually is.


A classic! (Although the poster is a little busy, but that in itself is highly representative of the time...)


Oh yeah, I need to see this flick toot sweet!


Jack Davis perfectly captures, and enhances what this classic is all about.


Haven't seen this flick; would like to; and need to post something to keep the "Zexy Replikantz" fans happy....


When this was originally released, I saw this in the theater (the old Georgetown Twin in Brooklyn), twice! For fans of 1970s dystopic future flicks like Soylent Green or The Omega Man/
Chosen Survivors is worth a look.


Boobies! (And a great piece of cinema from good old Otto Preminger.)


A childhood favorite--the poster and the ad campaign on TV, that is. When we finally got around to seeing The Legend of Boggy Creek (at the Tannersville movie theater in upstate NY), well...I learned a lesson, that's all.


I'm not sure if I've ever seen any of these flicks--they're the type of movies that probably had lots of different titles over the years... But I've loved this poster since I was a kid, and saw it advertised in the late, great and lamented The Monster Times.


Gotta love Oliver Reed! (And Sitting Target is highly recommended!)

The Return of the Linkadelic Zexy Replikoidz!!!

Yes, Brian De Palma’s Femme Fatale IS a great film

The “New Economy”: work turns you into an addict, and addiction keeps you working

David Mamet and the zeal of the convert
(So why do some creative types—Mamet and comic book creator Frank Miller come to mind—become raging right-wing nutcases after a certain age? Because when they were younger, their political consciousness was nil, and now they are scared old rich men who desperately want to “protect” their fortunes—and the situation isn’t helped by the insular worlds that they have retreated to. If they weren’t so ridiculous, you could pity them. But don’t.)

Speaking of Mamet, here’s something he got a bundle of $$$ to “ghostwrite”: John Frankenheimer’s last great film, Ronin—




I’ve heard of burning Indian wives, but burning monkey witches?
