Frig this Friggin’ movie

In one of his final roles, Robin Williams appeared in the Christmas holiday movie A Merry Friggin’ Christmas, and the finished product may even sour jolly old Santa.Keith Bailey is the proprietor of The Unknown Movies Page.
Kirk Douglas not only starred in Scalawag, he also directed and co-wrote it. And… well, let’s just say that it’s unlikely that even the incredibly prolific Kino Lorber video label will give this a stateside disc release any time soon.Keith Bailey is the proprietor of The Unknown Movies Page.
…because, well, how would you tell the difference anyway? Nevertheless, this particular crop of reviews accidentally ended up being pretty close to a normal person’s idea of what might be appropriate to the season:
Count Dracula (1970), in which Harry Alan Towers and Jesus Franco try to con us all into believing they’ve made the Most Faithful Dracula Movie Ever, but the only person they fool is Christopher Lee…
House of the Long Shadows (1983), in which the surviving Horror Geezers gather in a spooky old house to be stalked-and-slashed like a pack of horny teenagers…
The Living Skeleton (1968), in which we begin with watery ghosts, but end with sheer madness…
and…
The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde (1968), in which Jack Palance sucks even worse than usual, but strangely doesn’t hurt the movie much by doing so.
El Santo rules the wasteland-- and also 1000 Misspent Hours and Counting.
There is a definite pleasing nostalgic feeling to Where Time Began (a.k.a. THE FABULOUS JOURNEY TO THE CENTER OF THE EARTH) at times, but it won’t be enough for many viewers to completely carry the movie in this day and age.Keith Bailey is the proprietor of The Unknown Movies Page.

Long-delayed new reviews at 1000 Misspent Hours and Counting:
Effects (1979), in which most of the people making a cheap horror movie that’s really a snuff film think they’re in on the con, but nobody’s in on the whole con…
Halloween II (2009), in which Rob Zombie brings the saga of Michael Myers to an ending that not even an Akkad can walk back…
Nope (2022), in which the unidentified flying object is more importantly a misidentified flying object…
The Northman (2022), in which Hamlet doesn’t give a crap what’s nobler in the mind…
She-Wolf of London (1946), in which the second cycle of Universal Horror makes one last orbit around the drain before plunging in…
Terror Train (1980), or Murder on the Disorient Express…
and…
X (2022), in which you don’t have to bring a chainsaw for a Texas Massacre.
El Santo rules the wasteland-- and also 1000 Misspent Hours and Counting.
