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!

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!

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!

Here we are, our last Mystery Photo for July. That means the summer is more than half over and Halloween season is just around the corner. Granted, for most of us, Halloween is all year round. Just need to get those temps down outside! Our last photo was from the little anthology film Nightmares (1983), in the segment “The Benediction” with Lance Henriksen battling a truck from hell. Always one of my favorites from that period. Kudos to the following that sent in the correct answer: Hoby Abernathy, Aaron Christensen, Lee Nattrass, and Will Wilson. Great job!

For those that thought that last photo was tough, this one might be a little harder, unless you’re a fan of those pesky old black and white films. Just remember to send me your answer in an email, to jon@kitleyskrypt.com. Good Luck!

Mystery Photo 7-18

Sure, sure, a little late in the day but still got time until the stroke of midnight, right? So let’s not waste any more time. Our photo from last week was that of the fine actor Alberto Dalbés from his role as Dr. Seward in Jess Franco’s epic The Erotic Rites of Frankenstein (1973). You want to see a bat-shit crazy movie, that includes a silver Frankenstein’s monster and some sort of bird/lady creature than look no further! Kudos to the following that sent in the correct answer: Aaron AuBuchon, Dave Fronto, and Troy Howarth.

On to this week’s photo! Sure, might look like an ad to get you to buy a new vehicle, but not quite. Take a peek and see if you can recognize which film this appeared in. And no, it’s not just some random shot of a truck. Give me a little more credit than that! Don’t forget though, send your answer to me in an email (so I won’t lose it) to jon@kitleyskrypt.com. Good Luck!

Is it Halloween season yet? For any of those sun-lovers out there who just love the heat, I’m sorry but I’ll be happy when the temps are hitting the ’50s and we have those dark and cloudy days. But until then, I guess we’ll just worry about getting a new Mystery Photo up before the day is over! We only had two correct answers for last week’s photo, which was from Werner Herzog’s 1979 version of Nosferatu. I knew I couldn’t put a shot of Kinski up since EVERYONE would have known it then! But kudos out to Troy Howarth and Mike Tutino for sending in the correct answer. Nice job, guys!

For this week’s photo, we’re wading through some obscure waters, or at least for a lot of you. But maybe for those that are using to doing more than dipping your toe into the strange and weird, you might recognize this shot. If you do, send your answer to me, at jon@kitleyskrypt.com. Either way, Good Luck!

Happy Monday! I know it is for me because I’m not at work right now, so that is always a happy day! But since I’m here at the computer working on the site, I guess I really am still at work. Except the fact that I’ve never considered the Krypt as “work”. All for the love of the game, as they say. So, let’s get back to it! Last week’s photo was from Guillermo del Toro’s 1997 film Mimic, which I know he’s not a fan of because of the interference he got, but I still like it. Granted, if we would have gotten to see his full vision, I think it would be even better. But congrats to the following that sent in the correct answer: Dahlia Daniels, Vincent Simonelli, and William Wilson. Great job.

Now this week’s little pic might be pretty easy, or pretty tough. Then again, I say that a lot, don’t I. I guess you’ll just have to take a peek and see where you stand! Remember, just send your answer to me through email (I have a lesser chance of losing it that way!) to jon@kitleyskrypt.com. Good Luck!

Welcome to another Monday, and our last Mystery Photo for June! That means we’re the summer is 1/3 over and we’re that much closer to Halloween! Okay, so you may not be as excited about it as I am . . . but let’s get to why we are here. I was very happy to see all the correct answers sent in for our last photo, which was from the Amicus film And Now the Screaming Starts! (1973). What an amazing cast, huh? Including the one in the photo, the stellar Rosalie Crutchley, who is probably best known to horror fans as the strange Mrs. Dudley in Robert Wise’s The Haunting (1963). While Amicus was usually known for their anthology films, they could still belt out a great feature film that was effective and entertaining. Kudos to the following for sending in the correct answer: Dada Debaser, Chris Dyer, Hector Fernandez, Dave Fronto, Kevin Hart, Bob Hartman, Brett Harrison, Troy Howarth, Gary McGuire, Charles Miller, Gary Miller, Bryan Senn, Michael Shields, Vincent Simonelli, Alan Tromp, and Greg Wojick. Well done!

Now on to this week’s photo. Might be a little different but let us see what you can come up with. Take a peek, put some thought into it, and then send us your guess in an email, to jon@kitleyskrypt.com. Good Luck!

Mystery Photo 6-20

Running a little late today but we still got one posted! But before we get to our new one, let’s go over last week’s photo. The photo was from the one and only The Hideous Sun Demon (1958), starring (not to mention producing and directing) Robert Clarke! Such a fun little movie that is more than worth your time if you haven’t gotten around to it. I swear, it’s hard to go wrong with sci-fi/horror flicks of the ’50s. Kudos to the following for sending in the correct answer: Chris Dyer, Bob Hartman, Kevin Hart, Bryan Senn, Michael Shields, and Alan Tromp. Well done!

Okay, this one might not be as easy, but we’ll see how sharp some of you are. Take a good look, then send your guess to us in an email, to jon@kitleyskrypt.com. Good Luck!
