Welcome to another wonderful Monday! Okay… maybe not wonderful but at least the high temperatures are gone! But let’s get to it. Our photo from last week was from The Seventh Victim (1943), directed by Mark Robson and produced by the one and only Val Lewton! This was never one of my favorites of Lewton’s work but each time I see it, I see more. It always had such a dark ending, but upon my last viewing, I did see a slight positive message there. If you didn’t catch it, email me and I’ll tell you. But congrats to the following for sending in the correct title: Hoby Abernathy, Todd Barwick Chris Dyer, Dave Friedman, Dave Fronto, Kevin Hart, and Mike Shields. Well done!

Now our next photo could be a photo representation of how I feel with all the stuff I have going on in the next two month. From conventions, library lectures, 24-hour marathons, etc., etc., it does make me feel like I’m constantly digging myself out! Granted, all self-imposed, so I can’t really complain. But none the less, take a peek and see if you can recognize what film this is from. Just remember to send your answer to me in an email, to jon@kitleyskrypt.com. And Good Luck!

Welcome to September! Now we might be able to start to go outside and not melt into the pavement! Plus, we’re just a month away from October! Granted, for most of us, we’re already in full Halloween-mode, while others live by the “Every day is Halloween”, me included! But let’s get to why we’re here. Last week’s photo was from the 1963 film The Curse of the Crying Woman, which opened up a whole new sub-genre for me back in the ’90s. A good friend recommended getting into the gothic Mexican films of the late ’50s and early ’60s, and this title was the first one I watched. I’ve been hooked ever since. Thanks Mark! Anyway, here’s the ones that sent in the correct answer: Hoby Abernathy, Dave Fronto, Kevin Hart, Erik Martin, Mike Shields, Alan Tromp, and Greg Wojick. ¡Excelente!

For this week’s photo, we’re still going old school with another black and white classic. Take a look and see if you can identify what film this shot is from. Just remember, send your guess to me in an email, to jon@kitleyskrypt.com. And most of all, Good Luck!
