    I found that a bit daft!

    'The Tomb of Ligeia' was pretty good, in a slightly heavy going and mad way!
    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    Only last night I watched a documentary about The Tingler - fascinating story



    I just checked out 'Don't Watch Alone' which it seems was only on Scottish Television - a Friday night horror double bill. I remember watching that in my jim jams when I was about 10 years old.

    Well, this was very good and ticked all the right boxes, delivering the dark and eerie vibe I love about these old films from the 1970s - and even Captain Kirk made an appearance!

    Creepy factor: 8

    Tune in at twilight for today's carefully chosen, crusty creep-fest!

    I'd recommend "The Beast Must Die" - very stylish movie with an excellent take on the whole werewolf genre, IMHO.
