.TERROR CREATURES FROM THE GRAVE (1965)



Not only does it have Barbra Steele-but it has walking corpses!
And that creepy "Pure Water" song!
I feel asleep watching it last nite (not because it's a boring film-I was tired)-and in my dreams I heard the song-and had a horrible nightmare!  Buggedout

"Pure water will save you,
will save you, will save you.
This is a warning, pure water will save you,
will save you, will save you.
Pure water will save."

For a number of years, a number of years ago, at the end of the year, I compiled two lists. A list of the best films of the year, as chosen by the critics, and a list of the worst films of the year, as chosen by the critics, and each year, one or more films would make each list.

I still have trouble wrapping my mind around the idea that a film can be both one of the best films of the year and one of the worst films of the year, but they did give me a start as to films I thought might be underrated. As while these 11 films may not be one of the "10 best films" I saw that year, I did enjoy 'em all.

Brotherhood of the Wolf
Moonlight Mile
O, Brother. Where Art Thou?
Beloved
Tim Burton's Nightmare Before Xmas
Bram Stoker's Dracula

Everybody hates DEAD PEOPLE (aka MESSIAH OF EVIL) but it's bad perfection for me, as stupid or perplexing as it may be, it's never boring and even a little scary...

I saw it at a drive-in over 30 years ago - it was the second feature - and I can't remember the first film... but I never forgot DEAD PEOPLE.  

DEAD OF NIGHT (aka DEATHDREAM aka THE NIGHT ANDY CAME HOME) is not as appreciated as it might be; it's one of my favorite '70s horrors:

The RED HOUSE (1947)



Edward G. Robisnson stars as an the overprotective guardian of a young girl,but he has a secret...and it lies within an old house in the woods.
Very creepy.
And it has an early appearance by Rory (MOTEL HELL) Calhoun too as a drunken punk.

Totally agree with you, AHD. Gets overshadowed by Black Christmas, but it's an equally powerful film.
Here's another great one:

Easily Fulci's masterwork if you ask me. Blows away his more popular movies I must say.

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
