I'm in again. Maybe this time I will succeed since I'm unemployed and have quite a bit more time on my hands. (Trying to find the silver lining, here.)

Only 10 of mine were first time viewings. Thanks for doing the tallies!

My final viewings for this year's challenge. I watched The Invisible Ray (1936). Another good Karloff / Lugosi pairing with both giving strong performances. And finally, there was a story in my Facebook feed from the AMIA about the Roy Spence films on the Irish Film Institute website...

Tonight at work, I watched a few episodes of The Addams Family on YouTube. The Addams Family Tree Halloween with the Addams Family Green-Eyed Gomez The Addams Family Meet the VIPs I love this show and it still holds up for me. It was my first favorite show as a kid and Gomez was my first TV...

Today I watched The Raven (1935). Lugosi is spectacularly creepy as the mad scientist and Karloff manages to elicit sympathy in a fairly thankless role.

Trying to get a few in during the last few days. I watched The Black Cat (1934) when I got home from work in the morning. I am truly amazed that much of it made it past the Production Code. Great performances from both Karloff and Lugosi.

Laundry definitely took a back seat to movies this week. ;) I saw The Addams Family on Wednesday, in 3D. There 3D effects were good with a few great pop outs and overall nice depth. It's a kid's movie for sure, with a nice lesson about bullying and for the grown-ups some digs at the Home...

And wait it did. :) Poltergeist was awesome on the big screen.

It's been a busy couple of weeks. I have had a chance to see a few things at the theatre recently. Rear Window (1954) - Top tier Hitchcock. Not really horror, but pretty terrifying toward the end. I highly recommend seeing it on a big screen. There is so much going on and so much detail in...

Day 2 - I had other things that needed to be done today, so I only managed three more cartoons. Midnight Frolics (1938) A Columbia Color Rhapsody. The color was not great and the plot was thin, but I did like the transparent effect used in the animation of the ghosts. Studie No. 8 (1931)...

I'm a bit pressed for time today, so I thought I'd start off the month with some Halloween themed cartoons. I acquired these from Steve Stanchfield's Thunderbean series. He puts out some great rare animation for collectors. I watched: Hallowe'en (1931) A rare Toby the Pup cartoon. It has...

I'm in. I will probably fail miserably as usual, but I'm going to give it a try. ;)
