"You know what's different about the first night? Nothing. Nothing... except it lasts forever, that's all. You'll be sleeping on the skin of a nightmare for the rest of your life."

Journey to the Center of Time (1967)

My rating: 4/10

So this is, for whatever reason, pretty much a remake (a kind word, others are available, many ending in "-off") of Ib Melchor's The Time Travelers, except with interminable stock footage instead of magic tricks and amputees. That being said, the businessbastard's suicide by time machine is kind of fun.

Some gifs from the Hawaiian Eye episode Malihini Holiday (S01 E01). Like the Surfside 6 gifs I just shared, I waited until this episode was gone from where I found it before posting here. I knew it would disappear but I didn't want to think I was at all responsible for that. WB really needs to just give us a box set.

LIGHTNING BOLT '60s spy silliness - review and free on YouTube

‘Submit to the master or be quick-frozen forever in his cold-storage harem!’ Lightning Bolt is a 1967 action adventure with sci-fi elements involving space launches being sabotaged by a madman. It is highly derivative of the phenomenally popular James Bond movies. Directed by Antonio Margheriti [as Anthony Dawson] (Killer Fish; Battle of the Worlds; Castle of Blood; Horror Castle) from a…

The Wasp Woman

The sets look like cardboard, even at 66 minutes it feels padded, and the monster makeup is ludicrous. Yet Roger Corman’s THE WASP WOMAN (1959, Tubi, YouTube) claims a place in my memory for two reasons. First, there’s the central performance by the tragic Susan Cabot as a cosmetics magnate whose empire is crumbling because she’s grown too old to be the company spokesperson. When an eccentric scientist (Michael Mark) presents her with his experimental anti-aging serum derived from royal wasp jelly, she leaps at the chance to restore her youth and ignores his warnings about overdoing it (much as I ignore dictums about putting too many prepositions and parenthetical insertions in a sentence, though my habits have less dire results). Cabot was one of the best actresses Hollywood ever wasted, and her performance here is both intense and nuanced. Her aging makeup at the start is surprisingly good for a Corman film, and she adds to it with a very subtle depiction of a woman older than she. When the serum starts to work, her joy is almost infectious. She becomes the kind of monster we can care about. The film also has a strong metaphorical punch. In 1959, it could have been interpreted as a take on drug addiction as Cabot relies increasingly on the serum, even as its effects fade more and more quickly. Today it seems to be a comment on women’s roles. Cabot is a titan of industry but only by appealing to the male gaze. Her refusal to accept age and a step away from power has to be punished. By contrast, one of her secretaries (Lynn Cartwright) is a bubble-headed beauty happy to get by on her looks while the other (Barboura Morris) is the good girl who’s only working until she can get her man to take care of her. Perhaps knowing his audience was horny teens who were going to make out until the few horror scenes made them look up freed Corman to pursue something deeper. Morris is quite good as a woman who professes to care about her boss but spies on her to keep her boyfriend happy. See if you can spot Corman’s cameo.

Full Moon Features: The Mummy and the Curse of the Jackals (1969)

Full Moon Features: Craig J. Clark investigates the puzzling case of The Mummy and the Curse of the Jackals.

Watch enough werewolf movies and one is bound to come across more than a few dogs — and I’m not referring to the ones some filmmakers try to pass off as their werewolves. This is the first time I’ve encountered a jackal, though, which archaeologist David Barrie (Anthony Eisley) is cursed to transform into when he ignores the clear warning on the side of the glass-topped sarcophagus of beautifully…
