I'm actually going to try to post all five days, but we'll see. <br /><br />But as a quick note: I started my Naschy love with FRANKENSTEIN'S BLOODY TERROR and kinda went from there. It's an easily accessible monster mashup and a good intro, I should think. But stay tuned next week. I have lots in store!Jennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13299640716799276127noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4200832832545654418.post-28901185795974388432010-11-24T12:36:55.393-05:002010-11-24T12:36:55.393-05:00PS - Why don't I just check out your Naschy bl...PS - Why don't I just check out your Naschy blog-a-thon at the end of the month?

Weird, isn't it? <br />Will try to check out Mr Naschy. As you're something of a Naschy connoisseur, what titles would you recommend?? ;)James Graceyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08968719719213071671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4200832832545654418.post-31486255316370234212010-11-21T16:39:16.913-05:002010-11-21T16:39:16.913-05:00Hi Jenn

This really sounds like a class act of a film; it's got it all hasn't it!? The only thing missing to that horror shopping list are Nazis. I mean how could one resist a movie with this kind of tagline..."While hiking the mountains, he's captured by two cannibalistic demon nymphets guarding a remote buddhist temple and becomes their sex-slave."Löst Jimmyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09907139441842698894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4200832832545654418.post-9940525029937875532010-11-15T19:21:22.264-05:002010-11-15T19:21:22.264-05:00Hi James!

Your confession is confidential, but your salvation will lie in filling this gaping maw in your movie watching travels. <br /><br />Your my resident Argento dude, so I don't know how much so you'll love love love Naschy - they aren't the most glorious of prints to behold and there are HUGE plot holes a lot of times, and many are hard to find in their original glory. But let me know what you think. And check me out on the blog-a-thon coming up at the end of the month. <br /><br />That's crazy - there's a still a 'ban' list over there? Does anyone still care about such trifling ass shit as a Video Nasties list? I mean, aside from the fact that we should seek out and watch everything on the Nasties list because we're perverted gluttons of punishment. :)Jennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13299640716799276127noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4200832832545654418.post-56387617415712602912010-11-15T14:06:14.848-05:002010-11-15T14:06:14.848-05:00I really need to get in on this Paul Naschy dude, ...I really need to get in on this Paul Naschy dude, Jenn. It is with the deepest, blackest regret I must confess I've never seen any of his movies... :o/<br /><br />Interestingly, I recently read that this film is apparently still banned in the UK! In one of the recent SFX special editions, they discussed Video Nasties - and it seems this one has never been granted a certification...

Jealous. <br /><br />BTW, Jenn, just thought I'd let ya know your old pal Astro has "moved" - new blog, new site - HERE: http://screengrab.blogspot.com/<br /><br />Stop on by and update your blog-roll, won't ya? ;)J.

It had also been far too long since I had watched a Naschy joint, so I figured I was due already. Why hold back? <br /><br />The LEAP ATTACKS are stellar here. I forgot to even mention the leap onto the galloping horse. And duh, of course Paul does his own stunts. He's the original Chuck Norris, imo. <br /><br />I'm glad there's only one Werewolf/Yeti showdown captured on celluloid. If there were more, we'd get used to them and that wouldn't be good :) <br /><br />I've got good stuff in store, as per our earlier discussion and I'm super excited. I think this is the most excellent way to honor a great talent on the anniversary of his passing. <br /><br />How-how-how-hoooowwwwwwlllllll!

It's gonna be a super-awesome celebration of all things Naschy!<br /><br />This movie really has it all. Wandessa is among the most eeevil looking of Naschy's villainesses, and I really wish she were in the movie more. And the fight scene between Sekkar Khan and Waldemar is EPIC. And Waldy isn't even wolfed out!<br /><br />The Duke loves this flick for many reasons, not least the LEAP ATTACK from the boulder ONTO A GALLOPING HORSE. I have no evidence, but I'm going to go ahead and say Naschy did his own stunt there. If I'm wrong, don't tell me. I don't want to know. <br /><br />I think this may be the only Waldemar entry with a happy ending for the dude too, isn't it? Funny he went all WEREWOLF OF LONDON with the Himilayan botanical werewolf cure here, rather than sticking with the WOLF MAN "nope you're fucked" version. :) And as you say, I'm pretty sure we have here the only Werewolf/Yeti fight in cinema, brief as it is. An embarrassment of riches!<br /><br />Now that you're warmed up and gushing forth, can't wait to see what you do for the blogathon!The Vicar of VHShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06832137990485130735noreply@blogger.com
