31 Days of Halloween: Anthology double feature

Naturally, I missed the second day of my 31 day commitment to write about one scary movie a day for October, so today I present a double feature of movie spotlights for your horrific pleasure.

These two segments are not in your regular Netflix rotation, but they feature some of the all-time greatest classic horror actors — including my personal favorite, Ingrid Pitt. Bonus points for the man, Peter Cushing, who is doing double duty by appearing in both of today’s selections. And still found time to appear in Star Wars.

31 days of horror: Chics rule

One of the things I both love and hate about horror movies is how women are treated and viewed. Often they are the dopes who trip themselves into a chainsaw after flashing all they’ve got for the camera. But just as often, they are kick-ass, brave, hilarious and occasionally sucked into a television.

Here are my top ten horror movie chics. Note I am not including science fiction otherwise Go Sigourney Weaver!
