Runtime: 1 hr 34 mins Starring: Ralph Bates, Martine Beswick, and Gerald Sim Director: Roy Ward Baker I would say this is Jekyll and Hyde adjacent, too. It shares Dr. Henry Jekyll’s character with the original material, as well as our doctor experimenting with things better left alone. There is…

Runtime: 2 hr Starring: Jack Palance, Denholm Elliott, and Leo Genn Director: Charles Jarrott I watched this on a Monday night. When I say I watched this on a Monday night, I mean I fell asleep at some point and woke up with a heavy sigh of frustration. When I…

Runtime: 1 hr 28 min Starring: Paul Massie, Dawn Addams, and Christopher Lee Director: Terence Fisher Friends! We finally stepped out of the silver screen and into Technicolor! My eyes were starved for what Technicolor could provide me, given that I watched quite a few movies in black and white…

Starring: Janet Smith, George Hastings, and Arthur Shields Runtime: 1 hr 11 mins Director: Edgar G. Ulmer I feel like I’m about to half-ass this. Friends, I zoned out while trying to watch this. This time around, Dr. Jekyll had a daughter. I say “had” because there is technically no…

Starring: Bud Abbott, Lou Costello, and Boris Karloff Director: Charles Lamont Runtime: 1 hr 16 min We have found another comedic adaptation of Robert Louis Stevenson’s story! Now, while the previous comedic film (Dr. Pyckle and Mr. Pryde) made me giggle, this film actually made me guffaw. Like, serious, loud,…

Starring: Louis Hayward, Jody Lawrance, Alexander Knox, and Lester Matthews (as my guy Utterson) Runtime: 1 hr 18 mins I don’t know what to say about this film! Alright, so, apparently we are now operating on the idea that Dr. Jekyll didn’t die at the end of his story. No,…

My adventures in horror movies, as you may have read previously, started with Freddy Krueger. As much as I loved that franchise growing up and as much as I adore Robert Englund, most people are surprised to find out that no film in that series has taken the crown as…

Giggle So, Dr. Pyckle and Mr. Pryde starring Stan Laurel (of Laurel and Hardy fame) was fun! I have heard of Laurel and Hardy, but I have never sat down and watched any of their work. This was about 30 minutes long (give or take) and most definitely a parody…

Most of my reading this year has been very middle-of-the-road, but a few books stood out in April, May, and June. The Haar by David Sodergren Primary Genre: Horror My Goodreads Review: This is equal parts horrifying and heartbreaking. Also, a little gross. Another Sky by Cynthia A Rodriguez Primary…
