Would highly recommend it. The books bloody good as well.

Laters...preacher x

I just watched this a couple of weeks ago, at the suggestion of a friend from another board. Very dramatic, but it was listed in the thrillers category so I got it. For 1955 it was more then likely pretty scary stuff.

I watched Strait Jacket w/Joan Crawford again last week. It is listed in the horror category and is a pretty good flick. It was directed by William Castle, who made a couple of Vincent Price films, one being The House on Haunted Hill, which was our Secret Cinema Saturday Night movie last week.

I know that a lot of the members here are younger, (nothing wrong with that), and we talk a lot about the new movies, or more recent films, however everyone should check out some of the older movies, (not necessarily the classics). They might surprise you.
