Upcoming: Gargoyles
March 19 - 7 pm Pacific

This awesome desert horror creature feature premiered 11/21/72 onThe New CBS Tuesday Night Movies.

After getting word about the existence of a large non-human with wings and horns, anthropology Professor/Doctor Boley (Cornel Wilde) and his daughter (Jennifer Salt) travel to New Mexico to Uncle Willie’s Desert Museum to have a look, and run afoul of the gargoyles, who want their skull back, thankyouverymuch.

There is a gargoyle queen, a biker gang, a kidnapping, and plenty of lore and world-building.

Cornel Wilde is best known for his 1940s/50s swashbucklers and romantic dramas, and best known by me for his noir films: The Big Combo, Leave Her to Heaven, Shockproof, Storm Fear, and Road House, which also stars my darling Ida Lupino.

Jennifer Salt starred, with her former roommate Margot Kidder, in Brian DePalma’s deranged horror film Sisters (also 1972), but is known mostly for being on Soap (1977-1981). Later in life she became a writer and producer on American Horror Story.

Gargoyles was the first film to feature the make-up work of special effects artist Stan Winston.

Yeti: Curse of the Snow Demon

Wednesday 12/17 at 7:30 PST

Join me for this 2008 made-for-cable creature feature that was part of ScyFi's Maneater movies, which included such classics as "Blood Monkey," "Shark Swarm," "Rise of the Gargoyles," and many more. It's Alive meets every-hunted-by-something-while-stranded-in-the--wilderness movie. These f*ckers do not take long before human meat is brought up.

Crowhaven Farm

Monday 11/24/25 at 7:30 PST

Exactly 55 years ago, on November 24th, ABC’s Movie of the Week, Crowhaven Farm premiered and landed in sixth place for the week in the Nielsen ratings (outperforming Bonanza and landing just behind Gunsmoke). The success of this New England tale about reincarnation, witches and revenge ushered in an era of made-for-TV horror films. Hope Lange is reliably adorable and also confused. Paul Burke does a great job conveying a narcissistic would-be painter. And I won't forget a shout out to Lloyd Bochner, one of my favorite character actor bad guys. LLOYD BOCHNER! WOOO!

Satan's School for Girls

Wednesday 11/5/25 at 7 PST

75 minutes of SATANIC PANIC! Join me in watching the progenitor of all the SSfG remakes, brought to you from 19l73 and starring Pamela Franklin, Kate Jackson, Lloyd Bochner (LLOYD BOCHNER!), Ray Thinnes, Cheryl Ladd, and Jo Van Fleet. Lots of spooky candle-lit hallways, lots of screaming, and twists!

Midnight Offerings

Wednesday 10/15/25 at 7 PST

This 1981 TV movie about high school witches starred a couple of America's Sweethearts -- Melissa Sue Anderson (Little House on the Praire) as the dark, powerful witch, Vivian, and Mary Veth McDonough (The Waltons) as new girl/good witch Robin. The source of their conflict? A boya. Of course a boy, right? A permed blonde Cassidy kid--little bro the Shawn and David. Watch for an awesome telekinesis fight in the autoshop.

Give me hagsploitation, psychobiddies, cults, stalkers, bad husbands, evil children, demons, possession, creatures, curses and cursed objects, devil dolls, reincarnation, telekinesis, witches, and mashups thereof.
Every couple of weeks I host a watch party featuring one of these beauties, and I hope you'll join me. We chat (but no Zoom-type video) and it's FUN>>>
Keep an eye on my socials or on this page for upcoming watch parties. There is no weird syncing issues -- wherever we are at when you join is where you are at. Yah? YAY!!!
