This Saturday at 11 PM EST, Bill and I will be be showing John Old Jr.’s slashtastic giallo — oh, you know, we mean Lamberto Bava — A Blade In the Dark! You can join us on the Groovy Doom Facebook and YouTube pages. You can watch this movie on Tubi or order it from Vinegar Syndrome.

Each week, we watch a movie and discuss what it’s about, the ad campaign and even have a drink that ties into the feature. Here’s the cocktail for A Blade In the Dark AKA La casa con la scala nel buio (House of the Dark Stairway), La Maison de la Terreur (The House of Terror), Cuchillos en la oscuridad (Knives In the Dark) and Das Haus mit dem dunklen Keller (The House with the Dark Basement).

Switchblade In the Dark

• 2 oz tequila
• .5 oz dark creme de cacao
• .75 oz lime juice
• .25 oz simple syrup

1. Shake with ice, then strain into glass.
2. Stir with a switchblade as you hear voices that say, “You are a female! You are a female!”

See you Saturday!
