Bill and Jeff welcome guest-host Gregory Crosby to review the TV thriller SATAN'S SCHOOL FOR GIRLS (1973) directed by David Lowell Rich and produced by Aaron Spelling.

Jo Van Fleet is the headmistress, Roy Thinnes and Lloyd Bochner are some of the teachers. Kate Jackson, Cheryl Ladd, and Jamie Smith-Jackson are schoolmates.

The Grue-Crew tackle the early Italian horror film THE VAMPIRE AND THE BALLERINA (1960, L'amante del vampiro) from director Renato Polselli. This is a first watch for each of the crew: Bill, Daphne, Doc, and Jeff. Walter Brandi makes for an interesting vampire appearing mostly in a oddly effective monster mask while Maria Luisa Rolando fills the role of Countess Aldo - also a vampire. Much of the film is reminiscent of the Dracula story but set near Rome, Italy, shot in the spectacular castle of Artena in 1959. This is a fun episode as we dive into the cast of characters, the posters, the...

The Grue-Crew tackle a bizarre, vaguely supernatural comic book adaptation BABA YAGA (1973) based on the works of Guido Crepax featuring his character Valentina (portrayed by Isabelle De Funès). In the story, Baba Yaga (Carroll Baker) is a mysterious witch occupying a creepy presumably abandoned mansion who sets her eyes on Valentina for a secretive agenda she may, or may not, share with the audience. The film is more of an artsy exploration of the source material featuring many of its exploitive aspects. Does it succeed as a horror (adjacent) movie? Does it adapt its source material in a...

With a film chosen by Jeff, the Grue-Crew tackle a bizarrely interesting vampire/possession/nun-sploitation film ALUCARDA (1977) from director Juan López Moctezuma. Tina Romero stars as the title character and makes a strong impression, the film firmly rests upon her shoulders. Bravo. Susana Kimini is Justine, Claudio Brook is both Dr. Oszek and the Hunchback Gypsy. Tina French is Sister Angélica. The film has a strong possession film atmosphere with a brilliant blood-soaked vampire segment, and a fiery Carrie-like ending. Check out what the Grue-Crew have to say. Enjoy. ALUCARDA (1977)...

Doc returns to join the Decades of Horror Grue-Crew to review BIG TROUBLE IN LITTLE CHINA (1986) directed by John Carpenter. Is there a better hero than Jack Burton? Yeah, probably, but in this action comedy with hints of horror and supernatural, he is the best - cocky, over confident, and often ridiculous. It's all in the reflexes! Kurt Russell, Kim Cattrall, and Denis Dun lead a terrific cast with James Hong nearly stealing the entire movie as David Lo Pan. Brilliant! BIG TROUBLE IN LITTLE CHINA (1986) Episode 310 - Decades of Horror 1980s Quote: "Like I told my last wife, I says, 'Honey, I...

The Grue-Crew delve into an early Lucio Fulci pre-Giallo mini-masterpiece with Don't Torture a Duckling (1972). In the film, you can see the beginning of Fulci's signature direction he would become known for with Zombi (1979) and his eighties gore-fest films. For this movie, the story is a murder mystery that contains hints of witchcraft and characters meeting a gruesome, bloody demise. It's pure early 70s Italian film making at its best. Check it out. Enjoy! DON'T TORTURE A DUCKLING (1972) Episode 266 - Decades of Horror 1970s Quote: "That's why she tore off the head of the doll and the...

Boris Karloff! Peter Lorre! The Boogie Man Will Get You (1942) is one of Karloff's Columbia pictures horror pictures from the 1940s. Each of these films, with the exception of The Black Room, has Boris in the role of a mad scientist; however, with Boogie Man, the film allows Karloff of Peter Lorre the opportunity to parody the genre and have a great time doing so. These two are so much fun to watch as is the remaining cast of eccentric characters. Tune in to Decades of Horror The Classic Era to find out what the Grue-Crew think of this often overlooked horror-comedy gem. Enjoy! THE BOOGIE MAN...

FEEDBACK

Dirk Rogers: I’m wondering if the new crystal lake series will introduce or even center around Jason’s father. It’s an untapped idea that has no legal entanglements and could really expand upon the Vorhees story. I’m so happy that the horror news is back on each week. Great job grue crew. Keep it up.
Chad White: Great show everyone.. lots of stuff here to be excited about.

Renee St. Aubin: Awwww, one day I’m going to make one of these live streams!

Chad White: Great show everyone! I’m looking forward to Five Nights at Freddy’s. they made it into a VR game and it is literally terrifying and it gave me anxiety, lol. I really liked Willys wonderland, but it had a lot of campyness, I hope they make it an intense horror instead of being campy…
Mason Campise: Keep up the great work!
