Get ready for a spine-chilling journey into Midwich, England, aka the VILLAGE OF THE DAMNED (1960) as we break down this brilliant sci-fi/horror classic’s eerie legacy. Based on John Wyndham’s 1957 source novel, The Midwich Cuckoos, and directed by stalwart Wolf Rilla who shared credit for the screenplay with Stirling Silliphant, future Oscar-winner for In the Heat of the Night (1967) and the TV series Route 66.

THE LODGER (1944) movie review

Lodger, The (1944) d. Brahm, John (USA)

Shamefully neglected by classic horror fans due to its relative inaccessibility, this gorgeously shot and flawlessly acted spin on the Jack the Ripper legend finally became available in 2007 from 20th Century Fox. An atmosphere-drenched version of Marie Belloc-Lowndes’ novel, director Brahm takes Alfred Hitchcock’s 1926 silent version and does the unthinkable by actually improving upon the Master.
