Well, I caught WEREWOLF IN A GIRL'S DORMITORY early this evening. Not a bad little low-budget, Italo-Austrian wolf-man flick, but no must-see classic, either. The werewolf (who has a pretty impressive set of teeth, and is more like a guy with a bad skin condition than a hairy man-wolf) is off-screen for most of the film, and much of the movie plays more like a typical murder mystery with plenty of red herrings, than a monster movie. Some nice, creepy, nocturnal atmosphere, though, and a couple of moderate maulings. A female doctor, who's trying to cure the poor wretch (aka, her lover) of his lycanthropy through medical means, doesn't win any points for intelligence, considering her klutzy way of dealing with dangerous test subjects. Catchy 10-second-long theme song, "Ghoul in School", plays during the brief opening credits.
I was originally planning to watch HORROR CHAMBER OF DR. FAUSTUS (1959, aka EYES WITHOUT A FACE) for the first time, but it turns out I don't have it...Funny, I could've sworn I had an old copy a friend had taped for me years ago, but it must've been my (warped) imagination. Oh well, since that film is now out of the running, I've taken the opportunity to add some more horror flicks I've never watched before to my earlier post on this thread, including DON'T LOOK NOW (1973) and THE MEPHISTO WALTZ (1971). Fortunately, I *do* have those (and everything else I've listed) available to watch.
***Update (10/12/01): I *do* have HORROR CHAMBER OF DR. FAUSTUS on tape after all, so it's back in the running!

Anyway, back to the tv!
