PSYCHO at 55
Here we’re going to look at what is very likely the most iconic and widely discussed horror movie of all time.
COLOR ME BLOOD RED
The third, and least, entry in writer-director Herschell Gordon Lewis and producer David F. Friedman’s fabled gore trilogy
CAPRICCI
An unrestrained phantasmagoria from Italy’s Carmelo Bene, one of the world’s most defiantly idiosyncratic filmmakers
THE WORLD’S GREATEST SINNER
A truly astounding early sixties artifact that remains frustratingly obscure
WITCHFINDER GENERAL
This 1968 gut-wrencher was the final film of Britain’s late Michael Reeves, and one of the highlights of 1960s British horror cinema
THE WHIP AND THE BODY
One of the strangest and most interesting films made by Mario Bava, a film featuring ahead-of-its-time perversity and the type of visual brilliance for which Bava is renowned
THE HAUNTING (1963)
A G-rated horror movie? Yes, there is indeed such a thing, and it can actually work, as this 1963 classic from the late Robert Wise proves
MATANGO
This classic of Japanese horror, from the creator of the GODZILLA flicks, was a groundbreaker in its day and remains an effective piece of work
MARAT/SADE
Peter Brook’s infamous filming of Peter Weiss’ MARAT/SADE is one of the screen’s great depictions of unfettered insanity, as well as a historical drama with definite contemporary relevance
MANTIS IN LACE
Sex and psychedelia merge in this supremely silly late-sixties freak-out about an acidhead stripper on a killing rampage. It’s stupid as shit but fun nonetheless!
