GSB Looks At Horror on TubiTV

Guest column by Gary Scott Beatty . . . . . TubiTV now has a good collection of Lucio Fulci directed horror, including City of the Living Dead (1980) and The Beyond (1981), two movies that, for some sinister reason, pull me back to view over and over.   Demonia (1990), Aenigma (1987) and Don't Torture a Duckling (1972) are also solid examples of Fulci strange horror. If you can stand a few ads there are probably a few here you haven't seen. https://tubitv.com/search/person-lucio-fulci +++ "It's only those exceptional and rare individuals who have brilliant ideas delivered to them by the muse, complete and gift wrapped. The rest of us have to work at it." – Alan Moore   For a limited time, I'm continuing to post art to see for FREE on my Patreon page. Some new inks went up yesterday.

You may enjoy bad movies as much as I do, so here are some lightning round reviews. Pledge Night (1989). A goofy, homoerotic frat plot meets Freddie Krueger. Low art amusing. https://tubitv.com/movies/525255/pledge-night The Castle of the Living Dead (1964). I really wanted to like this one. You have Christopher Lee underacting and a young Donald Sutherland (playing three parts, no less) overacting. You have a creepy castle with all the gothic trappings. I don't think the slow pacing was intentional. https://tubitv.com/movies/641166/the-castle-of-the-living-dead Puppet Master III: Toulon's Revenge (1991). I've never been a fan of the Puppet Master movies. The little guys just aren't scary for me, no matter how ghastly they carve them. This one may be the best of the bunch and is an entertaining, stand alone film. https://tubitv.com/movies/466610/puppet-master-iii-toulon-s-revenge +++   Shortages are interesting. Not a single container of garlic powder in the grocery store, but plenty of minced garlic. A couple of minutes in my spice grinder and -- instant garlic power. First world problems, people, we can get through this. Celebrate today! Every day is a gift, revel in it. The world's poisons can't harm you unless you let them. There are more good people than you suspect. Stick around, you are needed.
