(1936, Upgraded 10/27/21) Tod Slaughter, Stella Rho, John Lister, Eve Lister, D.J. Williams. Tod's most famous film. Two maniacs murder for profit, hack up the bodies, and then sell thim in meat pies. Sounds appetizing, doesn't it. The scenes of Todd dumping his victims from his barber chair, backwards through a secret floor panel into his musty basement below really packed a jolt back in 1936.  Quite grisly even by...

(1966, Updated 12/30/20) Lon Chaney, Carol Ohmart, Jill Banner, Quinn K. Redeker, Beverly Washburn, Sid Haig, Mantan Moreland. Perversely delightful, often hilarious, and downright horrifying. Chaney is the household master of an eerie mansion full of regressive psychos. Mantan Moreland's famous window-slice-and-dice opening scene gives you a grim but humous taste of what's coming...
