Our photo from last week was from Michele Soavi’s 1991 film The Sect (aka The Devil’s Daughter). Years ago, at a HorrorHound convention that Jamie Lee Curtis was appearing, I was more excited when I found out her sister Kelly was there taking photos of her appearance there. I think she was a little surprised when I went up to her and mentioned The Sect. I was only able to ask a couple of questions, but it would have been nice to have more time to ask about this film. But nonetheless, congrats to these fine gentlemen for sending in the correct answer: Troy Howarth, Tim Palace, William Wilson, and Greg Wojick. Bravo!

This photo should be a pretty easy one, especially for the older Monster Kids. I’ve always enjoyed this one and always entertains when I bust it out. Give it a look and see if you can recognize the “burnt casserole man” in the photo! Just remember to send your guess to me in an email (so I don’t lose or forget it) to jon@kitleyskrypt.com. Good Luck!

I can’t tell you how much it makes me happy when I through a not-so-classic-that-should-be-known-as-a-classic and I still get a few correct answers sent in. Warms my cold heart. Last week’s shot was from the Val Lewton classic Isle of the Dead (1945) directed by Mark Robson (another guy that needs some street cred). If you have not seen this film, please do yourself a favor and seek it out. In fact, seek out all the Lewton horror films he made for RKO in the ’40s. They are all well worth your time. But back to the subject at hand. Congrats to the following for sending in the correct answer: Chris Dyer, Kevin Hart, Bob Hartman, Troy Howarth, Michael Pniewski, Bryan Senn, and William Wilson. Well done!

Now on to this week’s photo. Might be easy, might not. Then again, I say that a lot, don’t I? Either way, just remember to send me your answers in an email to jon@kitleyskrypt.com. Good Luck!

Been a little lacking in updates this last week, but that just means I’ve been keeping myself busy, both in the real world and other irons in the fire. Hopefully I’ll get back on track with some more posts during the week. In the meantime, let us get to why you’re here for this particular post! Last week’s photo is from the 2007 Spanish film [REC] from directors Jaume Balagueró and Paco Plaza. Truly a terrifying film and pretty damn original for how they did it. Congrats to the following for sending in the correct answer: Hoby Abernathy, Aaron AuBuchon, Enai Aye, Peggy Christie, Dada Debaser, Dahlia Daniels, Chris Dyer, Dave Friedman, Kevin Hart, Dustin Moravick, James Schmeichel, Todd Warren, William Wilson, and Greg Wojick. Great job!

This week’s photo is from a classic black and white film. Then again, aren’t all black and white films classics? Well, I think so at least. Take a look and see if you can recognize the movie from this single shot. Just send your guess to me in an email, to jon@kitleyskrypt.com. Good Luck!

Nope! I didn’t forget. Just running a little later than I’d hoped, but here we are, for the last Mystery Photo for January. The first month of the new year already over. Wow. Okay, down to business. Our photo from last week was from Lamberto Bava’s Demons 2 (1986). To those that sent in Demons at first, don’t feel bad because you were not alone. Congrats to the following for sending in the correct answer: Chris Dyer, Kevin Hart, Gary Miller, Bryan Senn, and William Wilson. Bravo!

Now on to this week’s photo. I think it’s pretty easy, but we’ll see how well it is received. Just remember to send your guess to me at jon@kitleyskrypt.com (so I don’t lose it . . . though no guarantees on that!). But most of all, Good Luck!

As I expected, I got no guesses sent in from our last photo. I knew it was going to be tough one because up until a few months ago, I never even knew of this movie. So don’t feel bad. The shot was taken from a made-for-TV movie from 1964 called The Ghost of Sierra de Cobre, starring Martin Landau and Diane Baker, and written and directed by Joseph Stefano. It’s a great little creepy ghost story film that thankfully is available on Blu-ray through Kino Lober. So yes, I do recommend everyone try and see this. I did have it in my Best of Viewings from last year.

But let’s get to this week’s photo. Take a look and see if this one is a little easier. It’s from a film most of us should know, but will you be able to recognize it from this shot. Just remember to email me your answers (jon@kitleyskrypt.com). Good Luck!

Welcome to Monday. I almost forgot about getting this posted because I actually had the day off for the holiday. We typically don’t have this day off but now we do, so I am taking advantage of it, which is why I almost forgot to post the new one! But before we get to that, let’s review last week. We got 4 people who sent in the correct answer: Hoby Abernathy, Aaron Christensen, Gary Miller, and William Wilson. And the movie? Nope, not forgetting this week! It was from the 1991 film The Boneyard, which I had not bothered with for the longest time, simply because I thought it looked too silly. Well, let me tell you that if you love good old-fashioned rubber monster movies, then this is amazing. A lot of fun.

Okay, on to this week’s photo. This might be a tough one, so we’ll see how good you are. Take a peek and send in your guess to me, by emailing me at jon@kitleyskrypt.com. Good Luck!

Welcome to our second Mystery Photo of the new year! That means one more week closer to Halloween! I have to say I was amazed at the number of correct answers sent in for last week’s photo. I really thought I was going with something pretty obscure, as far as the specific shot, but apparently not!

Editor’s Note: Apparently it helps when you list the movie from last week!!!! It was Black Christmas (1974)!

Here are who sent in the correct answer: Hoby Abernathy, Enai Aya, Todd Barwick, Cate Cameron, Aaron Christensen, Peggie Christie, Dada Debaser, Kevin Hart, Christopher Highland, Troy Howarth, Jeff Owens, Tim Palace, Michael Pniewski, Erich Polnow, Mickey Thompson, Kristin Wicks, William Wilson, Greg Wojick, and Jeremy Zink. Well done!

Now onto this week’s photo. Let us see if this one seems to be too easy or not. Take a peek below and see if you recognize where this shot is from. Just remember to send me your answer in an email, to jon@kitleyskrypt.com. Good Luck!

Welcome to our first Mystery Photo of 2024! Are you ready for another year of pictorial puzzles? Something to make that grey matter between your ears do a little extra thinking? Well, that’s what I’m here for! Before we get to the new photo, let’s do a little recap first, shall we? The photo from last week was from one of the best anthology films ever committed to celluloid, Mario Bava’s Black Sabbath (1963). Between the creepy to terrifying stories, to the amazing colors and cinematography presented there, it never loses its power for the viewer. Kudos to the following for sending in the correct answer: Hoby Abernathy, Aaron Christensen, Dave Friedman, Kevin Hart, Bob Hartman, Troy Howarth, Michael Pniewski, Bryan Senn, and Michael Shields. Well done!

Let’s see how many can get our first photo of the new year. Just take a peek below and see what you can come up with. Just remember to email me your guess, at jon@kitleyskrypt.com. Good Luck!

Just because it’s Christmas doesn’t mean we’re not going to have a new photo! Probably why it is just getting posted now. But here it is none the less. Before we get to it, let’s back up to our last photo. It was from Amok Train (1989), better known in the here as Beyond the Door III. Why that title? I have no idea and it makes no sense. Then again, wouldn’t be the first time for something like that! Congrats to the following for sending in the correct answer: Nathan Rumler, Mickey Thompson, and William Wilson. Well done!

Now on to our last photo of 2023. Just where did the year go, huh? Take a look below and see what you can come up with. If you recognize it, make sure you send me your guess in an email to jon@kitleyskrypt.com. And Good Luck!

Sorry for missing out on a new photo last week, but as we mentioned in an early post, web stuff happens. But we’re back on a Monday morning with another interesting mystery pic for you. But first, let’s talk about our last photo. Major kudos to the following people: Hoby Abernathy, Enai Aya, John Cairns, Dave Friedman, Dave Fronto, Kevin Hart, Bob Hartman, Ken Johnson, Gary McGuire, Lee Natrass, and Vincent Simonelli. Not only did they correctly identify the shot as being from The Manster (1959), but even more credit because it wasn’t a shot of the title character which would have made it easy! Congrats for going that extra mile with your horror knowledge!

Now on to this week’s pick. Might be easy, might not. But either way, might want to avoid this woman if she’s running the checkout line while doing your holiday shopping! Just remember, if you think you know it, send me an email at jon@kitleyskrypt.com. Good Luck!
