Jason has seen it 18 times already. Too much talking for Jiggy.
I have seen a few movies past 1929, you know. :P

Going to start up Silent Night, Bloody Night (with a print that, according to comments, people can actually see, so looking forward to that) shortly, but was going to do some quick shopping first.

I've had a DVD of that in a slim case from Walmart for more than 20 years and when you open it it smells like rain.

Barely remember the movie.

Honestly, I don't even think it's that bad (though on the slow side, but that's sort of par for the course for the 1970's). It's just that it's in public domain, and pretty much every print looks like shit, which obviously doesn't reflect well on my movie.

That said, I've not seen it in probably ten years, at least, so I may be wrong about how good it is. :P

adoration seems to be another good movie that isn't a good horror movie. but maybe the horror will pick up during the last forty.
