October Horrorthon!

Inspired by the GGtMC, I decided to try and watch a different horror film each day of October.


For the 1st, I went with 1965 Hammer horror "Die! Die! My Darling!". I enjoyed it quite a bit, mainly due to Tallulah Bankhead's fine turn as the wickedly repressed would-be mother-in-law. Peter Vaughan plays a surprisingly sleazy handyman, and of course there's Hammer's typical production value, combined here with something of a Hitchcockian sensibility.

Starkweather Reunite (But Not Really)

Last Friday, the original trio of Starkweather -- Doormat, Jay Matuschka, and Pius Panzram -- met up in Beautiful Downtown Oshawa to drink, be merry, hang out for the first time in about 16 years (!?), and speak with author Nick Martino.

To mark the occasion, this crappy photograph (L-R Jay, Pius, Doormat):
