Ferryman Maria [1936]

  • DVD
  • PRINCIPAL CAST: Sybille Schmitz, Aribert Mog, Carl de Vogt, Peter Vob
  • DIRECTOR: Frank Wisbar
  • SYNOPSIS: One night a village ferryman hears the passenger bell. At the dock, he finds a dark figure waiting to cross the black waters. It’s Death, who has come for him. Soon after, young Maria takes over as the new ferryman. One night she gives a ride to a wounded man who is marked for death. But when Death comes she tries to save him. The scene where Maria dances with death is a great moment. She later flees over the dark countryside and hides in a church, but to no avail. With Death at her heals, Maria trudges into the swamp to meet her destiny. A beautiful film and a true classic.

Dark Places [1974]

  • DVD
  • PRINCIPAL CAST: Christopher Lee, Joan Collins, Herbert Lom, Robert Hardy, Jane Birkin
  • DIRECTOR: Don Sharp
  • SYNOPSIS: This is one of the most underrated British horror films of the 1970s, complete with a wonderful cast. Hardy plays the head of an asylum who has inherited an eerie old mansion from a deceased patient—a patient who murdered his wife and kids on the premises! Legend has it that there is a hidden fortune somewhere in the walls of the house. Also searching for the loot, though, is Lee—the mysterious local doctor—along with his beautiful sister, played to the hilt by Collins. Both are wonderful in their performances. Unfortunately for all, the house appears to be haunted. This film, although low budget, is very similar to a Hammer film. It’s wonderfully atmospheric and features a terrific, seat-clutching climax. A minor gem.
  • TAGLINE: There is more than death waiting for you in Dark Places.
  • GENRE: Horror, Thriller, Romance
  • RATING: Rated PG
  • RUN TIME: 91 Minutes

Satan’s Triangle [1975]

  • DVD
  • PRINCIPAL CAST: Kim Novak, Doug McClure, Alejandro Rey, Jim Davis, Ed Lauter
  • DIRECTOR: Sutton Roley
  • SYNOPSIS: McClure and his Coast Guard helicopter pal come upon a shipwreck in an area known as “the Devil’s Triangle.” When McClure is lowered to the ship he finds dead bodies all over the place. The only survivor is a beautiful blonde (Kim Novak), who’s in a confused state of mind. Unfortunately, a cable snaps on the helicopter’s rescue basket and McClure and Novak are stuck on the boat until the chopper can return. She tells a grisly tale of what happened. Little does McClure suspect that the evil power that caused all the deaths will soon return. Novak was forty-two when she made this film and still looked great. Creepy with many twists. Color, 16mm.

Return of the Witch [1952]

AKA “The Witch”

  • DVD
  • PRINCIPAL CAST: Mirja Mane, Toivo Makela, Hillevi Lagerstam, Sakari Jurkka
  • DIRECTOR: Roland af Hällström
  • SYNOPSIS: One of the most remarkable films we’ve seen in 30 years of business. An archaeological team unearths the body of an ancient witch and pulls a stake from her rotted corpse. Soon a beautiful naked girl is found in the witch’s grave. The villagers are sure she is the ancient witch returned to life. She soon sets about bewitching men in the most erotic ways imaginable, without resorting to full-blown sex. The scenes of Mane dancing nude were intended to be mesmerizing—and they are! The film’s overall visual images are great. The blending of a classical-style score with a flowing sense of eroticism is haunting. In Finnish with English subtitles. 35mm.
  • GENRE: Horror, Drama, Fantasy
  • RATING: Not Rated

The Deathhead Virgin [1974]

  • DVD
  • PRINCIPAL CAST: Jock Gaynor, Larry Ward, Diane McBain, Vic Diaz, Kim Ramos
  • DIRECTOR: Norman Foster
  • SYNOPSIS: Gaynor is a treasure hunter who finds the haul of a lifetime—a sunken galleon off the coast of an island in the Philippines. Imagine his surprise, though, when he finds the ship is guarded by the vengeful spirit of an ancient princess (who’s depicted accurately in the film’s posters). She stalks totally naked around the beaches and possesses Gaynor’s partner’s soul, sending him on murdering rampages. Not bad for such a cheapie. Norman Foster directed. Several bikini-clad babes flaunt their goods. Rated R for nudity and violence.
  • TAGLINE: Chained for 100 years in a sunken tomb!
  • GENRE: Horror, Drama
  • RATING: Rated R

Crowhaven Farm [1970]

  • DVD
  • PRINCIPAL CAST: Hope Lange, Paul Burke, John Carradine, Lloyd Bochner
  • DIRECTOR: Walter Grauman
  • SYNOPSIS: Lange and her hubby inherit a farm—Crowhaven Farm. But there is something strange about the aging country estate. Lange sees visions of ancient settlers doing odd things with rocks and wooden doors. The neighbors spin tales of witchcraft that all seem to point to Crowhaven. But why is it that all the villagers, all typical modern Americans, seem so…kind? Soon Lange realizes that something is very amiss. Carradine has a great bit as a malevolent handyman. A wonderfully creepy film with an unsettling feeling of impending horror that will make you pull your feet up onto the couch and your knees up in front of your face.
  • TAGLINE: A chilling tale of vengeance from beyond the grave.

Island of the Doomed [1967]

  • DVD
  • PRINCIPAL CAST: Cameron Mitchell, Elisa Montes, George Martin, Kay Fischer
  • DIRECTOR: Ernst Ritter von Theumer
  • SYNOPSIS: Mitchell is the evil Baron von Weser, who has a grim collection of carnivorous plants. When a group of people vacation on his island, they soon they find themselves having to deal with his monstrosities. Watch out for his blood-drinking tree, which soon becomes acquainted with several unfortunate guests. This is a fast-moving piece of Euro-schlock. Mitchell is great as he underplays his evil role. This film has had some awful video releases in the past, but this is probably the best video copy on the market. Aka Man-eater of Hydra.
