This sounds like a neat idea - great reason to run my Blu-ray again! Sunday afternoon 3/19 would work best for me. |

I agree Bud - this one would make for a good round of chatting. I've got the DVD, of course. |

Thanks for the nod, Bud. Believe me - Mangano practically owns this movie. For years I've only known about BITTER RICE from that famous shot of her standing in the rice field in a tight, form fitting ... |

BITTER RICE, Giuseppe De Santis' post-war depiction of female rice-field workers in Northern Italy's Po Valley, is a film classic that defies genre categorization. Part melodrama/film noir/allegory/do ... |

Love it — thanks, Bud! That's about what I paid for it about six months ago. My classmate only paid 60 cents for his!  |

My first recollection of JUNGLE CAPTIVE is a Famous Monsters issue from 1970 that featured a terrific cover painting of the Ape Woman strangling Otto Kruger.

Nice capsulization of this underrated gem, Bud. Even though it takes a few liberties with Curt Siodmak's original novel, cinematically, it's much better than the 1953 version which is decidedly bland ... |

I mean it when I say A TRIP TO THE MOON is one of my favorite movies.

At the moment, I'm watching this atmospheric, beautifully lit monsterfest which I think gets too easily bumped in favor of HOUSE OF FRANKENSTEIN. I first saw HOUSE OF DRACULA 45 years ago to the day - ... |

Thanks, Bud - it's good to be aboard. With me, it was a no-brainer to pick up the entire series when it was released in '07. Loved it ever since I tuned in when it debuted back in '68. But then, I was ... |
