(1971) DIRECTORS CUT!  Carolyn Brandt, Ron Haydock, Jason Wayne.  Directed by Ray Dennis Steckler.  When this was made back in ‘71, Director Ray Steckler was faced with a distinct problem.  He had a concept for an hour long horror film at a time when distributors weren't touching anything that ran under 70 min.  Therefore, Ray was forced to pad the film with several minutes of extra footage consisting mainly of rodeo action shots and non-essential dialogue scenes.  In this newer edition...

(1959, upgraded 8/31/23) Horst Frank, Michel Simon, Paul Dahlke, Herlmut Schmid, Christiane Maybach, Michel Simon. Another must-see film! A serum that keeps severed portions of the human body alive is used by a mad doctor on its own inventors decapitated head. Horst Frank, as Dr. Ood, is a total nut-job and gives what is easily one of the best mad scientist portrayals of the 1950s.  The insane purpose of his experiments is to give his hunchbacked nurse assistant a new body.  Creepy and atmospheric.

(1926) Paul Wegener, Alice Terry, Firmin Gémier, Iván Petrovich, Gladys Hamer, Henry Wilson.  One of the best horror films of the silent era.  Wegener, as Dr. Haddo, is marvelous as the crazed magician/alchemist who wants to create a new, artificial life by supernatural means.  He puts the beautiful Alice Terry under his hypnotic spell, forcing her into marriage.  His ultimate goal...

(1953) Jack Palance, Constance Smith, Byron Palmer, Frances Bavier, Rhys Williams.  The setting is London in the late 1880s.  The monstrous killer, Jack the Ripper, is on the prowl, killing women left and right.  Palance is the mysterious stranger who rents the gloomy attic room of a Victorian house run by Frances (Aunt Bee) Bavier.  He needs the reclusivity of the room for his "experiments."  Every time there is a new Ripper killing, Bavier begins to suspect...

(1966) Jean Sorel, Lisa Gastoni, Edmund Purdom, Ilari Occhini.  Critics have been a little too unkind to this remake of the 1928 Conrad Veidt classic.  It’s actually a fairly decent Euro-thriller.  Sorel plays a boy who is kidnapped by gypsies.  They mutilate his face into a sardonic, always-grinning atrocity.  

(1928) Conrad Veidt, Mary Philbin, Julius Molnar, Olga Baclanova.  In addition to the original B&W version of this amazing film, you’ll also receive a brand new tinted edition as well.  It looks great, too! Outside of Casablanca, this is probably the role that Veidt is remembered for most.  Veidt, as Gwynplaine, is a side show freak, abused by society and royalty...

(1934, Upgraded 4/7/21) Horace Carpenter, Bill Woods. There's the distinct possibility that this might be the best "worst movie" ever made. Plot concerns a mad scientist and his even madder assistant who conduct experiments to ressurrect the dead. The assistant injects the man with...

(1966, Upgraded 3/25/22) Tom Neyman, John Reynolds, Diane Adelson, Hal Warren, Stephanie Neilson.  This is a movie that will be talked about and studied long after we're all dead.  "Manos," the Hands of Fate is considered one of the worst movies ever made…ever.  Yet its low budget charm gives it a unique cult appeal that keeps your attention all the way to the end. The plot is simple, a family on vacation stops at...

(1957) Luis Aguilar, Flor Silvestre, Jaime Fernández, Crox Alvarado, América Martín.  This forgotten Mexican horror gem concerns a village that has fallen into a state of panic-stricken horror.  There are ax murders that leave gruesome remains for the villagers to discover.  But there’s more than just an ax-wielding maniac afoot...

(1969, Upgraded 1/7/20) Herbert Lom, Udo Kier, Gaby Fuchs, Reggie Nalder. Lom stars as a sadistic witch finder judge in 18th century Austria. His justice is sadistic, brutal, and mostly against women. This film has a large...

(1971) Stephen Boyd, Marrissa Mell. In what had to be one of the most bizarre roles of his career, Boyd plays a well-to-do landowner who is haunted by the grisly spectre of his dead mother, whom he mu
