Finally get to watch Werewolf in a Girls Dormitory.

But it's on Tubi, which means will have commercials. Oh well.

I think the movie's okay for the time period, but ultimately probably forgettable. Hopefully you have a good time with it, though.

Well, Survivorz was an utter waste of time. Onto an interesting looking British film from 1966 called Eye of the Devil. Even has a younger Donald Pleasence in it. Hoping for a good time.

Barbara Lass is frick'n pretty.

So far the only things I'm not liking about this is the lack of effort for wolfman FX and the really bad dubbing.

Soooooo....are there different versions of the Cabinet of Dr Caligari? And if so, which version should I look for? I see TubiTv and Prime has it available.

Would, To Cast a Deadly Spell (1991), count? Its comedy horror. But we allow certain comedy horrors. I get confused lol

The only one of real note is the 1920 version. It was remade in the early 1960's (which I have recorded, but haven't yet watched), along with a few other times, but honestly, aside from just watching them out of interest, anything other than the original is unnecessary in my opinion.

So basically Witchtrap is a knock off of his own Witchboard and a dash of Night of the Demons, but none of the effort?

Eye of the Devil was a fantastic film, and I could easily see it being in my top twenty horror films from the 1960's.

Seems like this could've been better as a slasher film, posing as a confined demon/spirit/haunt film, rather than a regurgitated demon/haunt film. There was real potential there for Elwin (Stooge) to be a straight up killer. What a waste.

Well Witchtrap was a big disappointment.
