Reed Alexander's Horror Review of 'The Thing From Another World' (1951)
This is the first movie adaptation of Who Goes There, by John W. Campbell. Horror Express (1972) was the other one, but unlike Horror Express, which I can only recommend to Riffers, The Thing from Another World is actually really good and I can recommend it to Horror Heads (Riffers too, but I digress). Hell, even by today's standards it still is really good, AND it was the inspiration for my second all-time-top horror movie The Thing (1982).

It's Alive! - A Review
It's Alive is a horror film about a mutant birth. The implication is that some sort of Big pharma toxin, or maybe toxic waste, is responsible. The film stars John P. Ryan and Sharon Farrell as the monster baby's shocked and horrified parents. Ryan is a cool, reserved cucumber of a man with a seething, brutal undercurrent. His wife is perched on the verge of neurotic hysteria. He has another son (Daniel Holzman). When the son is sent to a friend's house because his mutant killer little brother is on the loose, he calls home. Dad hangs up on him. They're that kind of family.

Jesús Franco's "Count Dracula"
I watched Jesús Franco's paint-by-numbers Count Dracula this afternoon. It's strictly a lean and mean version of the old gothic chestnut, with no frills attached and a stark and almost stiff retelling of the old tale. It makes the plot, which is so familiar by now it must be a part of the collective unconscious, effortless to follow.
