Happy October 31st! In honor of one of the greatest months ever, here’s part three of my special Halloween edition of Lisa Marie’s Favorite Grindhouse and Exploitation Trailers. Enjoy!
1) House of Dark Shadows (1970)
Apparently, this film is being remade by Johnny Depp and Tim Burton.
2) Night of Dark Shadows (1971)
And then, of course, there was a sequel.
3) Children Shouldn’t Pay With Dead Things (1972)
I agree!
4) Don’t Look In The Basement (1972)
In the best grindhouse tradition, the first part of this trailer is made up of scenes from Last House On The Left. On another note, one of the benefits of living in north Texas is that we don’t have to deal with basements and all the icky little things that tend to live in basements.
5) The Crater Lake Monster (1977)
Wow, this looks bad. But I just love the way the guy narrating the trailer tries to convince us otherwise.
Everyone always seems to freak out when I admit that I haven’t seen this movie yet. I do own it on DVD, however and someday, I will watch it. Promise!
Happy Halloween!
