The Classic Horror Film Board-WITCHCRAFT (1964)
Hi folks, below is my mini review from imdb. I'm very happy with this release, I've watched it three times already.

The Classic Horror Film Board-DINOSAURUS! (1960)
I just recently re-watched this 1960 Universal-International prehistoric epic on DVD. I love this goofy movie and probably had more fun with it than I did even with JURASSIC PARK. This little sci-fi thriller has it all, including genuine stop motion animation,plus some nice rod puppet models, (the dinosaurs are actually brimming with personality), and a very cool Cave Man who just isn't on screen enough.

6:20 PM - 7 days ago#302024-12-14T18:20+00:00 I just got done watching this for the first time and I loved it!

However, there are also a lot of interesting things going on in this movie, and all of it's awesome.

The Classic Horror Film Board-Show Us Your Monster Movie Home Theater (or Man Cave Where You Watch Your Monster Movies)!
Growing up we had one television in our house and it was always a challenge to watch a monster movie in its entirety. Creature Double feature or Science Fiction Theater always seemed to be on Saturday mornings at the same time as my father’s fishing or hunting programs and his Jimmy Houston Bass Tournament always won over my Creature from the Black Lagoon movies. I always seemed to miss either the first hour or last 30 minutes of my movies as my dad always seemed to preempt them.

The Classic Horror Film Board-Easing my kids into classic horror, recommendations on titles?
We began a tradition a couple years back watching classic horror movies around Halloween. All of our kids are currently pre-teen, so I've kept the flick picks to most anything before the sixties with a few exceptions. They've enjoyed the iconic Universal protagonists, and really got a kick out of House on Haunted Hill and some other Price delicacies.

The Classic Horror Film Board-Vinegar Syndrome releasing CRUEL BRITANNIA set containing CRAZE, CRUCIBLE OF TERROR and PENNY GOLD
British cinema has long cemented its legacy of producing creative thrillers, often infusing macabre twists with a wry sense of cynical humor. By the early 1970s, the British film industry had become more daring in subject matter while still relying on the consummate technical professionalism that helped establish it as a leading force in the medium.

7 minutes ago#212024-09-19T23:15+00:00 When I retired six years ago, I said my ritual wold be to watch a movie every morning with coffee. I haven’t done it more than a handful of times. Way too much to do taking care of our home and property, not to mention 4 years of prepping a house for sale, moving and renovating our new home. And in spring and summer, I can’t wait to get outside working, biking, golfing, etc. Movies are my reward at day’s end after a hard day’s work (and play).

The Classic Horror Film Board-Godzilla Minus One - Domestic video release?
1:59 AM - Aug 12#142024-08-12T01:59+00:00 1) What's an "Ultra Clear Blu-Ray disk"? Actually I don't really care as long as I know whether it's pressed or burned. 2) Do these disks contain the film in both color and b&w? Any addition extras? My opinion is "give the buyer what they want". If Toho is being stingy with the b&w version, and the Chinese disk is of high quality, then I have no problem shopping elsewhere.
