Welcome to February! And since it is Monday, that means a new Mystery Photo. But before we get to the new one, let’s go over last week’s. It actually was an easier title, but I used a shot that I thought wouldn’t be recognized too easily. And it looks like I was right. The shot is from the opening of John Hough’s The Legend of Hell House, one of my favorite haunted house movies out there! Only got one correct answer sent in and that was from Hoby Abernathy. Pretty tough to sneak one by him, apparently! But major kudos to you none the less!
Okay…this week’s photo is a nice little close up of a man who might just have a little bit of a skin problem. Take a peek and see if you recogninze this guy and the movie he is from. Good luck!
And as always, please don’t post your answers here, but send us an email to jon@kitleyskrypt.com
With all the recent talk about Hollywood and the Oscars not being fair to minorities, I’d like to get on my soapbox for a minute and point out another group of people that have been excluded for the most part since cinema began. And they are actors and actresses that have appeared in horror films. No matter how high of an achievement in acting they do, it is very rare that they are recognized or even noticed by the Academy. But these people have given some amazing and incredible performances over the years, but most of them are sweeped under the red carpet without even a first glance.
I recently came across these wonderful busts of different Spanish Horror Icons and knew I had to show them here. Being a huge fan of Spanish Horror, especially of Paul Naschy, anytime I see something this, I need to help spread the word. Honestly, I just love the fact that there are other people out there spreading the love of this much underrated genre of fantastic cinema, as Naschy used to refer to it.
