I liked it. I was expecting it to be silly, and it delivered.

Yeah great cast and great transfer.
I also checked out VICE SQUAD. It was a bit tame, but I dug it. (I'm a fan of Edward Cahn's flicks)

I did watch SEX KITTENS GO TO COLLAGE! Gawd damn! What a brain dead movie! It had Mamie,and Jackie Coogan and Vampira and...John Carradine! And a guy name WooWoo Grabowski-who's a total moron! I LOVED IT! A horrifyingly awful piece of cinema lobotomy!!! WATCH IT!!!

James Mitchum did look just like his dad, but he couldn't act worth a f**k.

Vampira reading poetry was great, and I loved Slapsie Maxie hanging out with the beatniks. But the pregnancy by either the rapist or the husband (should I have an abortion?) subplot really made the movie unsettling. Oh, and you can't forget the hula hoop scene.

I gotta see!

I thought this was great. Stephen Boyd did a great job in the lead role (and so did Tony Bennett as his sidekick).

People compare it to VALLEY OF THE DOLLS, and that seems right. It's very dramatic.

And Jack Soo, from BARNEY MILLER, was in it!

Really have enjoyed a lot of the recent stuff TCM has been playing...they've played a lot of great film noir classic recently too.

They have.
I caught DOUBLE INDEMNITY for the first time in a long while, and it blew me away once again. I think it's one of the best movies ever made, but DEADLINE AT DAWN...not so much, but at least the dialogue had me laughing.

A rich but racist man is dying and hatches an elaborate scheme for transplanting his head onto another man's body. His health deteriorates rapidly, and doctors are forced to transplant his head onto the only available candidate: a black man from death row.
