Re: The 1960s Horror movie running commentary thread

[The Call of the Wendigo]

Miss Swanson's alarmed again.

[The Call of the Wendigo]

The army and the police have turned up with a bazooka.

[The Call of the Wendigo]

Their bazooka missiles are bouncing off the Golem, like peas.

[The Call of the Wendigo]

The government's decided to nuke it.

[The Call of the Wendigo]

That escalated fast.

[The Call of the Wendigo]

The Golem's carrying the love interest around.

Now it's dropped her.

[The Call of the Wendigo]

Convenient plank.

[The Call of the Wendigo]

The government have nuked it.

[The Call of the Wendigo]

The Golem, that is. Not the plank. The plank was not their main target.

[The Call of the Wendigo]

The plank was merely collateral.

[The Call of the Wendigo]

The Golem is still alive.

There is no news of the plank.

[The Call of the Wendigo]

The Golem has submerged itself in the sea.

Roddy is, presumably, dead.

[The Call of the Wendigo]

It is over.

I think we all learned a valuable lesson tonight.

Never tell your Golem to swallow its parchment.

[The Call of the Wendigo]

That was a very silly film, with an obvious debt to Psycho but it was diverting enough.

Now to look back at the thread and see what everybody else made of it.

[The Call of the Wendigo]

The first three pages of this thread are devoted to a film I have no memory of ever having seen.

[The Call of the Wendigo]

I have just watched a trailer for it, to see if it jogs my memory. There was not one thing in it that rang any bells at all.

[Fangirl Three]

This is even better than the last film commentary that I praised on the NHOTW.

I bet reading it was more fun than watching the film would have been.

[The Call of the Wendigo]

[The Call of the Wendigo]

The Gorgon starts here.

[The Call of the Wendigo]

Artist painting his girlfriend.,

She wants to get married. He doesn't.
