Halloween 2021 is looking a little pale. Yes, it is only early September, but that is the point. Shelves, normally stuffed with decorative tricks and treats, have been slow to fill. Candy, of course, always the true king of Halloween, is popping up,...

The Jungle Jim pressbooks were usually a six-page foldout. I scanned the pages in the order you would see them when initially opening the pressbook. The JJ series had a long run of B (perhaps more C) movies to fill theater screens when patrons would...

One of my guilty pleasures is watching the antics of the East Side Kids (aka Dead End Kids, Little Tough Guys, The Bowery Boys) troupe's antics. Here they join with the FBI to foil terrorists. A surprising number of movies were made with various...

I caught Orgy of the Dead many, many years ago, late one night. For the life of me I can't remember where, but it may have been a late-night showing on some UHF channel. I was naughty, even then, and UHF had lax standards. After Criswell introduc...
