Is anyone else getting stoked for October yet? Does anyone have an idea of what they what to watch? Do you have anything saved for it?

I know there is still three weeks to be exact to the kick-off of The October Challenge, and I know that there is a challenge underway, but I am starting to look forward to this years challenge. Time flies and it waits for no man. However, it is not just the challenge - I like this time of year, when the evenings are shorter. Leaves are falling and Autumn is calling. It is good for TrashEpics too, a sharp increase in activity is inevitable - hopefully activity will be prolonged.

Anyway, I usually put movies aside especially for it. Movies that I haven't had a chance to watch, or movies that I keep putting off, for one reason or another. I already know what I will be watching this year as it saves from rushed choices and ultimate disappointment. I have a nice mixture of old and new movies, from foreign, to obscure and hyped horror lined up. It allows gives me the opportunity to explore some directors filmography that I may have not seen to others in which I am concluding their filmography, to watching some Asian horror movies I have not seen before. I usually don't bother with re-watches - I usually just watch first-time-views instead. Anyway here is my list for anyone interested:

The Tingler (1959)


All of them are from master of gimmicks William Castle. Even though he is mostly remembered for those gimmicks so a very good marketeer, I think he was a very competent filmmaker in his days.

Recently, I have been in the mood for films from that era like Hush...Hush, Sweet Charlotte (1964), What Ever Happened to Baby Jane? (1962), Nightmare (1964), Castle of Blood (1964), The Oblong Box (1969), Premature Burial (1962) and Eye of the Devil (1966) which were all great imo.


The good thing about movies from these periods is that they set a certain mood, an atmosphere that seems to have lost once we got into the 70s. Okay that's just my feeling and I do love black and white cinematography certainly on gothic time pieces.

I was going to watch William Castle's 13 Ghosts (1960) but it seems more on the comedy side. Would that be correct?


I have seen it only once and without the special glasses. I did buy the DVD version which includes those glasses (tested and it works). I know the movie is more about this gimmick than anything else as the story is not much to shout about. Not really scary but I would disagree that it relies more on comedy. When I re-watch it this time with the glasses I'll be able to give a more proper judgment.

I was also going to watch The Raven (1963) by Roger Corman - but that one seems it is more comedcy than anything. A shame really cause I like Edgar Allan Poe stories.


That's what I found a shame as well. I have seen all 7 of Corman's Poe adaptations starring Price and I thought The Raven was easily the weakest because it is more comedy. It's nice to see Price, Karlof, Peter Lorre and a young Jack Nicholson all in the same movie but comedy I consider a waste of their talent given the name and fame they made in the horror business. If there is one I suggest avoiding it's that one. I think I have seen all of Corman's horror and even though he made some other abysmal ones, I can't think of one worse than The Raven. I recommend The Raven (1935) with Karlof and Lugosi a 100 times above the one from 1963.

Btw I think The Tingler is fucking brilliant, the concept alone.
