DRACULA VS. FRANKENSTEIN (1971)
 
Why watch this movie?
Maybe for the Dracula with a Mike Brady perm and an echo box voice.

Show more respect for the great Zandor Vorkov!

^Hey- that is the first film I ever saw and thought- "This is really BAD!" And I was only 10!
Now it's gotta be one of my favorite 'BAD' movies.

Bilitis (1977)

This came out when I was at an impressionable age, and I think I can speak for many of my generation when I say that the poster fueled a lot of fantasies. So I had to check it out after all these years.

It is story of a schoolgirl finding love. Ostensibly based on the pseudo ancient Greek poems of Pierre Louys, it has very little to do with the source material. For one thing, it is set in the South of France in a strange period that is halfway the 1930s and the 1970s, which is mainly notable for the near universal absence of bras.

It is hard to comment on the performance of the actors, as the whole thing is so inane, it makes your average Jean Rollin movie look like oscar material. But that is not why one watches it, however, it is because of the pretty pictures of naked girls. In this, it does not disappoint. You are barely five minutes in when an entire class of school girls (in their twenties) go skinny dipping, and the movie keeps up this pace.

Whether that is enough to keep your interest for 95 minutes, I leave up to you.

FACE OF THE SCREAMING WEREWOLF (1959/1964)

A woman is regressed hypnotically to her previous life as an Aztec Princess by some looney doctors. She leads them to an ancient temple that contains the Aztec Mummy and...Lon Chaney Jr. in mummy garb!
The docs take Lon back to their wax museum (?) lab and revive him courtsy of some high voltage ala Frankenstein and he turns into a werewolf! After killing lots of folks and the Aztec Mummy briefly shows up and then promptly disappers again. Lon Grabs a woman, climbs up the site of a building with her like a mini Kong, goes through a window and runs down the stairs to ground level again. After mauling the doctors, he's set on fire and changes back to Lon again.
"He was just a regular guy." The End.
This was a mash up of an Aztec Mummy film and a Mexican comedy film with all the (intentional) comedy cut out titled LA CASA DEL TERROR. Enter Jerry Warren who butchered both and threw them together to make this travesty.
Holy s**t.

Lon as a hefty mummy-






and in his last foray as a Wolf Man-
