We Know It was a "Waste of Money".....

 
                                                   My new (over-sized) Skull....!!!!

                                                           Thank You Mr. Bloch.....
                    But there were only two in stock... ( the other had "chipped" places)....
                    
               reminded us of the Skull in the early 70's film "the Creeping Flesh"....!!!!

 

And Peter Cushing gave another Great performance of a man's descent into "Madness".....

A Cool Little Film....

                        
                           And a great portrayal of a man's descent into "Madness".....

                               As given to by the Great actor, Peter Cushing......

                                                    Even has Christopher Lee

Good Evening....

 
                                                  A Friend visited for the day.......

      We watched a Lot of "short" Horror Movies and some things from Tales from the Crypt....

            Like the early 70's "Asylum" (written by Robert Bloch) and "The Vault of Horror"

This One ( we went and Fixed the Post we did a while back"... Movie and "clip" were Missing)
                       The Creeping Flesh was one we watched at the Drive-In as a child....

Movie Time

                                       
This film from Hammer Films was one of my favorites...  starring both Christopher Lee And Peter Cushing... about a doctor/ scientist (Cushing) who lost his wife to insanity... and now fears that the same will happen to his daughter ... and tries to create a serum to prevent this from happening... Meanwhile his Evil brother runs an asylum and looks down on his brother's research... Then we introduce the giant skeleton which was dug up ( from a far away "dry" part of the world)... After he accidentally spills some water on one of its fingers...which re-hydrates and grows a translucent vein filled fleshy covering... From this "flesh" he makes an extract to treat his daughter....

The storyline is a bit "lame" then takes a few plot turns that are not really relevant to the "monster" in the story... after injecting his daughter with his serum she becomes a "murderous mad woman" ...She is later locked up by her uncle (Lee) in his asylum.... and he attempts to steal his brother's (Cushing) discovery on a dark stormy night and the skeletal horror comes to life and then returns for its finger....

 

 Peter Chsuing delivers a great performance as a desperate man's descent into madness..

                                                              

 

Cushing goes mad at the end and is also locked up inthe asylum as well where he dwells as a "nine-fingered" madman....ranting about the "horror" this creature of pure evil is now free to unleash into our world....

 as a small child I went to the drive-in theater with my parents to see this film...
