My grandma had a large studio portrait of her taken back when she was under contract to one of the studios (I think Universal) back in the early 50s. She was on a stairway, wearing a very fitted Satin evening gown with a train. It was amazing. I think one of my cousins has it now. It had pride of place for decades in my grandma’s beauty salon. Did you know Adele was Liz Taylor’s stand-in in “Butterfield 8”? She also sang and danced, studied with Stella Adler and started her career singing with Latin orchestras in NYC in the 1940s when she was just a teenager. She learned Spanish songs phonetically and they would bill her as Adele Montoya from sunny Havana. She pretended not to speak English so the audience wouldn’t know she was really Adele Cracchiola from Rutherford New Jersey! Lol I miss her!

By the way, the 'uncut' version on Prime has the nude scenes in it.

Yes, she was really my aunt, my mom’s youngest sister. She’d been on Broadway, could dance and sing, but I guess this movie is her lasting legacy! I never knew there were nudes floating around until a few years ago. She’s long gone but I don’t think she’d mind people appreciating what a knockout she was.

I didn't find out about the foreign edit until recently but the thing that always stood out about this flick was Adele.

I have since seen the MST3k version many times. I seem to recall the UHF viewing had a few extra seconds of footage. The monster made it out of the house and set Adele down in the front yard. The movie ended with Jan summoning him to come back to die with her in the burning house. Has anyone else seen this version? Am I just remembering the end to another flick? Great site!

It's one of those movies that piles one ghastly thing on after another, perfect for late-night TV. My mother used to leave the room when the arm tearing off part came on. She couldn't stand watching that...it turned my stomach, too! It was filmed in Tarrytown/Sleepy Hollow, NY in the fall of '59. Julian Detmer's mansion was used for the exterior. It burned down in 1971. I have a photo of the location now, a condo subdivision (sigh). Also have an awesome MP3 of the full, uncut record, "The Web" used in the movie.

I first saw it very early, and the screen went black at the end, the moment the poor "closet creature" broke open the door. Of course, I though the scene was actually made that way, so he would be left to your imagination. <br />You can imagine how it was the second time I saw the movie (which was also late at night) and it got to that scene - I expected that blank screen, and instead I saw him!Granthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09603892208775996594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5825429179234380868.post-46229589015934788882013-10-29T12:02:16.519-07:002013-10-29T12:02:16.519-07:00Randall - Ditto..Randall - Ditto..TABONGA!noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5825429179234380868.post-28018206563708319162013-10-29T08:38:24.640-07:002013-10-29T08:38:24.640-07:00That's awesome.
