In this effort, he’s […]

PURE TERROR MONTH: Point of Terror (1971)
I’ve seen way too many Dyanne Thorne films . . . and I’m proud of that fact. The only other person I know who’s seen more than I . . . is the freak that runs B&S Movies. “Who’d the frack is Dyanne Thorne?” you ask. You’re kidding, right? She’s Don Edmonds’s “She Wolf”! “Who’s […]
PURE TERROR MONTH: The Night Evelyn Came Out of the Grave (1971)
“The worms are waiting are waiting for you, Gladys!” If I had a nickel every time a fellow film lover told me they hate Italian Gialli and that the films make no sense. . . . It certainly doesn’t help when a skull-faced woman in a curly-red wig and flowing nighty sashays around a crumbly […]

Graveyard of Horror (1971)
There’s something to be said about the last movie on a multiple film bill late night at a foggy drive-in. You’re half-awake, you’re probably trying to sober up and you might be the only one not sleeping. It feels like you’re surrounded by others but still discovering a movie for yourself for what could be […]
Evel Knievel (1971)
Robert Craig Knievel was the hero of my childhood. After all, who else was brave, insane or dumb enough to attempt more than 75 ramp-to-ramp motorcycle jumps in his life, a life that should have ended way shorter than the 69 hellacious years that he lived on this planet with? How does one become a […]
The Devil’s Nightmare (1971)
I love when movies have more than one title. You may know of this movie by its Belgian title, La Plus Longue Nuit du Diable (The Devil’s Longest Night). In Italy, it’s called La Terrificante Notte del Demonio (The Terrifying Night of the Demon). And it’s also played as The Devil Walks at Midnight. When a […]
