A ★★★★★ review of The Curse of the Cat People (1944) Even with such a misleading title, The Curse Of The Cat People is one of the most enchanting and beautiful-looking films to ever come out of the Hollywood studio system. It is such a quietly heartbrea...

"Amy's snowy nighttime journey to the spooky old house rivals the most frightening Disney fairytale sequences, climaxing with a truly hair-raising performance by Elizabeth Russell as the witch-like psychotic daughter of the old woman." boxd.it/cSLy0v

A ★★★★★ review of The Seventh Victim (1943) A minor masterwork of loneliness, depression, death, and Satanism all lurking in the shadows of New York's Greenwich Village, The Seventh Victim stands as a sister film to the Val Lewton/Jacques Tourn...

"Jacqueline, even more than Simon's Irena, looks and acts like a predecessor to the Beatniks and the Goths of decades to come... an ethereal figure of darkness desperate for love but longing for death."

Piercing the veil of dogmatic fears to confront demons within and without seems to be the unifying theme of this pair of Val Lewton classics (Cat People & I Walked With A Zombie) and the two 28 Years Later epics. #LetterboxdFriday #LastFourWatched #FilmSky #horrorsky #28YearsLater #ValLewton

On this day in 1942, Cat People was released in theaters. #40shorror #horrorfamily #horrorcommunity #ValLewton #RKO

The most frightening finale to any horror film? Henry Daniell cabs it up with the ghost of Boris Karloff in The Body Snatcher (1945).

I just watched "Cat People" (Jacques Tourneur, 1942) and rated it 7/10 #CatPeople #JacquesTourneur #SimoneSimon #ValLewton

“I WALKED WITH A ZOMBIE” is on TCM. We get a beautiful two-fer to distract us from the eeriness of Val Lewton’s film.

First we get FRANCES DEE. And then we get THERESA HARRIS. #TCMParty • #FrancesDee • #TheresaHarris #ValLewton • #JacquesTourneur 1 / 3

nyone else love the atmospheric swimming pool sequence in CAT PEOPLE (1942)? Produced by #ValLewton, directed by Jacques Tourneur, it's the perfect movie to lead into Mischief Night (that's a thing, btw). On #TCM this evening. #TCMParty #BlackCat

#Jacktober Day 10, Movie 22.

Another Universal #firsttimewatch, #SheWolfofLondon was not what I expected going in. It ended up more like an attempt to make a #ValLewton slow-burner. Interesting.
