It's Hound From Hell Monday with Tabonga, here at The Dungeon!.. This is a great little Hammer film that was one of the first horror movies Eegah!! and I saw together at the movies after we became pals in 6th grade. If there's one thing Hammer delivers, it's definitely thrills!..
Eegah!! sent over a soundclip from this fun flick for our listening enjoyment, sooooo, you can push the big red 'GO' button there next to the boiler room door, NOW, Ralphie The Tarantula! Here's our audio offering for... THE HOUND OF THE BASKERVILLES!
Seriously, this fucker here's the despicible, sadistic Sir Hugo Baskerville, he's the one who brings the Curse of the Baskervilles to his family (as heard in the soundclip)! In the little time he's on the screen, he shows just what too much money and power can do to a little bitch! He has just murdered a girl for making him look like a fool in front of his jerk friends, then, he screams like a little girl when the Hound from Hell gets him!
Here's Peter Cushing as Sherlock Holmes, Francis De Wolff as Dr. Mortimer, André Morell as Dr. Watson and Chris Lee as Sir Henry Baskerville, what a bunch of acting talent in one spot!
This may be the textbook example of ~ Bonnie Lass!
Dr. Watson gets off the beaten path and into some quicksand while exploring the scruffy countryside.
Holmes had been pretending to be away, tending to other matters but was actually hiding in the moors, observing things from there. He's smarter the the average bear!
Classic portrait of Peter...
Holmes has a flair for the dramatic!
In a thrilling moment, Holmes is nearly run over by an ore cart that then causes the mine to collapse on him! After trying to rescue Holmes, the others find him waiting for them in the carriage, and, he got hurt pretty bad.
Sir Henry finally realizes that he has been played the fool by his lover, Cecile, and, he's on the devil dog's menu!
It was all a hoax kept alive by Sir Henry's neighbors, for revenge concerning land rights. The dog wore a mask to make it appear like a monster mutt!
And, Cecile meets her demise in one of the quicksand pools! The dog had just killed her father before it was shot by Holmes.

GAMERA TAI DAIMAJU JAIGA - Shunsuke Kikuchi - "Gamera Vs Monster X" (1970)
Okay, we've been doing this non-stop just shy of 6 years now, so all good things have to come to an end some time, and what I'm talking about is that we've finally run out of Gamera films! We've seen Gamera vs Gaos, Zigra, Guiron, Viras, Bargugon, and finally tonight Jiger, also known as Monster X!
Since it's a party of sorts, here's two different looks at the title card! The music for this fantastic tale of awe and wonder was created by the Masestro Shunsuke Kikuchi of "Red Dead Wagon," "Dragon Ball," and "Dragon Ball Z" fame!
It's 1970 and welcome to Expo 70, also known as The World's Fair! Here's three stunning examples of the modern architecture unveiled at Expo 70!
On the other side of somewhere, Jiger, or as he's sometimes known, Giger has come back to life, and he wants to play!
The freedom fighting Gamera decides to literally take the bull by the horn!
Unfortunately Jiger has different ideas!
The puny useless humans cower at the might of the World Champion monster Jiger!
Gamera gets flipped on his back, and takes a spear delivered by Jiger in each of his arms and feet! Being a turtle, no matter what size you are, getting flipped over onto your back can become a devastating uncool experience!
Time to try and send in the big guns to no avail!
Jiger fries a few worthless human bystanders!
Of course there is always a chance for hope once spoiled rotten children get involved!
Gamera gets injected with a nefarious solution of Jiger Juice that renders him almost completely useless, and a plan is developed to fix it!
"We all live in a yellow submarine!"
Once inside Gamera via the yellow sub, the kids encounter little baby Jigers creating all kinds of problems, so they dispose of them straightaway!
After he recovers, Gamera can't take it anymore, so he plugs his ears!
After much turmoil, Gamera skewers Jiger with a broken idol, and once again, the world is a safe place to live, saved by the almighty and benevolent flying turtle Gamera!

CAT PEOPLE / RKO Radio Pictures - 1942
It's Friday Fright with Tabonga, here at The Dungeon!.. We gots a very stylish noir mystery directed by Jacques (I WALKED WITH A ZOMBIE and CURSE OF THE DEMON) Tourneur, starring French born Simone (THE CURSE OF THE CAT PEOPLE) Simon, Kent (THE INVADERS) Smith, Tom (VOODOO WOMAN and THE SHE-CREATURE) Conway and Jane (ABBOTT AND COSTELLO MEET FRANKENSTEIN) Randolph and had a very decent budget of $134,000, bringing in $4,000,000.
Eegah!! sent over a lil' soundclip from the movie for us to enjoy, sooooo, you can push the big red 'GO' button there next to the big black cat, NOW, Rufus The Gnat! Here's our audio offering for... CAT PEOPLE!
It's always interesting to start a horror flick with a little warning about something!..
It's love at first sight for Oliver after eyeballing pretty Irena at the zoo, she's a mysterious Serbian-born fashion artist living in New York. Oliver and Irena get married...
But, there's problems, Irena believes she has a family curse on her, that, whenever she get extremely agitated, she turns into a black panther and kills for revenge!
Oliver sends Irena to debonaire shrink, Dr. Louis Judd, he probes her mind for answers to her mysterious past.
I like this shot!..
After her sessions with Dr. Judd, though, she begins having vivid dreams and nightmares.
In a fit of jealously, Irena stalks Oliver's co-worker and good friend, Alice, and gives her quite a thrill at the indoor pool!
Oliver has to fend off a freakin' black panther in his office building!!
Dr. Judd has fallen in love with Irena, but, she doesn't love him, and, he'll get his just desserts in just a few moments!
