TCM has another weekend full of classics of  interest. (All times Central)

Saturday  Oct. 9

11:00am  - Forbidden Planet -  The Krell  had it made until those pesky Id monsters showed up. It's got Robbie the Robot, so you know you want to watch it again.

3:00pm -  Dr. Strangelove or  How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb - Gotta love Peter Sellers and I know you love seeing Slim Pickens riding the ultimate bucking bronco..

5:00pm - House of Wax - Vincent Price figures out a new way to make those wax figures realistic.

Sunday  Oct. 10

1:00pm -  The Naked Spur  -  Jimmy Stewart and Janet Leigh in a psychological  western.

3:00pm  -  Psycho  -  Anthony  Perkins  should have just changed his name to Norman Bates after this film. Never saw  him as anyone else.

7:15pm  -  The Devil Bat  -  It's Bela Lugosi , of course there are bats.

8:30pm -  Jaws -  I wonder if  Robert Shaw tastes like chicken?

Every Friday night this month is dedicated to Peter Lorre (he and Anthony Perkins are both high on the creepy scale)   Check out TCM  for  more classic viewing options.    (I almost sound like an ad, but I do love this station for continuing to show great movies uncut and uninterrupted.)




And you thought Trek isn't cool.

October is the only month i'm going to miss cable, all the good horror movies. I haven't seen house of wax in years! AMC not showing anything good?
