Mystery Photo 10-17

Welcome back to Monday, and we’re at the halfway point for October. Hopefully everyone is able to spend some time enjoying the season, watching a few fun flicks, maybe going to a convention, or maybe a movie screening or two. There’s definitely plenty going on, that is for sure, because I know our plate is more than full! We just returned from Monster Bash out in PA and had a lot of fun, even adding a few more titles to my book library, which is always nice!

Okay, let’s get down to business. Last week’s photo from Lady Terminator (1989) and is a site to behold if you haven’t seen it. Yes, there just might be some similarities to the James Cameron film, but it is so over the top, funny, and damn entertaining. A PERFECT entry for anyone’s Turkey Day marathon. Kudos to the following for sending in the correct answer: Hoby Abernathy, Richard Garcia, Bob Hartman, and Lee Nattrass. Great job.

This week’s photo might be easy, but we’re going to try and throw you off the path with this particular photo. Does that help? Just remember to send your guess to us in an email (so I don’t lose it) to jon@kitleyskrypt.com. Good Luck!

Are we having fun yet? I mean, we’re already a third way October and there has already been so much going on that it does seem like it is flying by, for better or for worse. But let’s keep the fun going, right? Our photo from last week was from the 1974 film Dark Places, starring Christopher Lee, Joan Collins, Herbert Lom, and Robin Hardy, that was recently released on Blu-ray by Severin Films in the Eurocrypt of Christopher Lee Collection 2. Hopefully this box set puts some light on this underrated little film. Great cast and a decent story. Congrats to Dave Fronto and Troy Howarth for sending in the correct answer.

This week’s photo is quite different than our last one. Oh yeah. But it’s a fun one, that is for sure. Just remember to send your guess to me in an email to jon@kitleyskrypt.com. Good Luck!

I apologize for the lack of updates last week, but it was a doozy. Since we are now in our favorite month, it is going to be a busy one. Got a lot of prep work to get done for different events this month so we’re slowly trying to knock them out. Which means less time spend here. But I’ve got plenty of stuff to report, just need to whittle out some time to work on it.

But let’s get down to business. Last week’s photo was from last year’s Antlers (2021), starring Keri Russell and Jeremy T. Thomas. If you haven’t seen it, check it out. It is well worth your time. Congrats to the following for sending in the correct answer: Hoby Abernathy, Todd Barwick, Chris Dyer, Kevin Hart, Eli LaChance, Gary McGuire, John E Meredith, and Lee Nattrass. Great job everyone!

This week’s photo isn’t from last year . . . or is it? (Insert devilish laugh here). Take a gander at it and see if you can place it. Just remember to send your answer to me in an email (that way I remember it) at jon@kitleyskrypt.com. Good Luck!

Mystery Photo 9-26

Yeah, a wee bit later than normal, but I didn’t forget. So much going on right now but it is all good stuff and that I brought upon myself so I can’t complain. Well, I could, but nobody will listen . . .

Okay, enough whining, let’s get to the Mystery Photo, right! Last week’s photo from from the 1957 film The Vampire, starring John Beal. While not really a supernatural vampire film, it is still a fun watch. And boy, when that image pops up that I used for the mystery pic, didn’t expect that for a film back then! Only got three correct answers sent in and they were from: Hoby Abernathy, Kevin Hart, and Bob Hartman! Well done!

This week’s photo is a little newer than 1957, but we’ll see how easy it might be. Take a peek and see what you think! As always, remember to send your guess to me in an email (makes it easier for me to remember!) to jon@kitleyskrypt.com. Good Luck!

Mystery Photo 9-19

I apologize for not only no Mystery Photo last Monday, but also for the lack of updates. Last weekend was HorrorHound and that was quite a weekend. In a good way, but exhausted when I got home. Plus, with October looming over, I’ve got a lot on my plate right now. Granted, I kept asking for it, so I have no one to blame but myself. But if the passion is still burning, might as well keep throwing wood on it! Enough of that. Let’s get to the business at hand. Our last photo was from the Lovecraft “inspired” film The Shuttered Room (1967), starring Oliver Reed and Carol Lynley. Kudos to the following for sending in the correct answer: Hoby Abernathy, Gregory Avery, Dada Debaser, Dave Fronto, Kevin Hart, Charles Miller, Lee Nattrass, Michael Shields, and Nick Wilson. Well done!

Going for something a little more obscure with this week’s photo, so buckle up and put those thinking caps on! Take a peek and see what you think. Just remember, send your guess to me in an email, at jon@kitleyskrypt.com. Good Luck!

Mystery Photo 9-5

That’s right, folks. It is officially September, which means Halloween is just a short time away. Granted, we all know that every day is Halloween, right! But let’s get to business. Our photo from last week was from French director Jean Rollin’s 1972 film Requiem pour un vampire, or as most know it as Requiem for a Vampire or even Caged Virgins. No matter how you feel about Rollin and his work, you can’t take away from the imagery that he gave us, and the shot I used is a perfect example. Kudos to the following for sending in the correct answer: Hoby Abernathy, Aaron AuBuchon, Brian Doerin, Dave Fronto, Bob Hartman, Lee Nattrass, Bryan Senn, Michael Shields, and Kristin Wicks. Well done. Always love it when one of these cult filmmakers gets some attention!

For our first photo of September, I thought I’d go with something a little more mainstream. Well, a little. Let’s see if you recognize this one. Just remember, send your guess to me in an email, to jon@kitleyskrypt.com. Good Luck!

Mystery Photo 8-29

A wee bit late today, but that’s because we’re still recovering from our weekend at the drive-in in Shelbyville, IN. Had a great time, hanging out with some good friends and seeing some amazing films on the big screen. It makes a film fan whole again, even if for only a short time. But on to business! Our photo from last week was from Richard Stanley’s 1992 film Dust Devil! Such a great little film, filled with a ton of style and atmosphere, just like Stanley does. Only got one correct answer this time and that was from Kevin Hart! Well done!

On to this week’s photo, one that is a little more off the beaten path. Take a peek and see what you think. Just remember, send your guess to us in an email, to jon@kitleyskrypt.com. Good Luck!

Mystery Photo 8-22-22

Here we are, Monday again. We need to stop meeting like this, don’t you think? But since we’re here, we might as well get a little work done, right? Our photo from last week was from Abel Ferrara’s black & white vampire flick The Addiction (1995), which I would recommend seeing. Only got three correct answers sent in, from Hoby Abernathy, Aaron Christensen, and Dada Debaser. Well done.

This week’s photo is a personal favorite of mine, from a director I really admire. Too much information? Maybe. But take a look and see if you recognize it. Just remember to send us your guess in an email, to jon@kitleyskrypt.com. Good Luck!

Mystery Photo 8-15

Seems I slept through last Monday and never got around to posting a new photo. For shame, I know. But now this week! But let’s review our photo from two weeks ago. It was from the 1997 film Habitat, starring one of my favorite actresses, Alice Krige. Always enjoyed her work ever since Ghost Story (1981). Kudos to the following who sent in the correct answer: Hoby Abernathy, Kevin Hart, Bob Hartman, Lee Nattrass, and William Wilson. Nice job!

Okay, this week’s photo might be a little tricky so pay close attention to it. Give it a peek and then send me your guess in an email, to jon@kitleyskrypt.com. Good Luck!

Mystery Photo 8-1

Brand new month, brand new week, brand new photo. But before we get to that, let’s go over last week’s photo. It was from the 1943 film Dead Men Walk, starring George Zucco in a sweet dual role, as well as Dwight Frye! Kudos to the following for sending in the correct answer: Hoby Abernathy, Kevin Hart, Bob Hartman, Troy Howarth, Gary McGuire, and Bryan Senn. Always thrilled when a little obscure flick from the ’40s gets some love.

Okay, on to this week’s photo, which is another little obscure one, but from a little bit more modern time. Take a peek, then send your guess to me in an email to jon@kitleyskrypt.com. Good Luck!
