Mocked all her life and called ugly. The poster even cuts her head off. But give the big turkey a break, underneath it all she's a beauty. 1957.

Kick starting the '60s boom in Mexican horror beautifully, heavily influenced by Universal gothic yet keeping it's unique Latino identity. Fabulous. 1957.

Savage Sword #11 is out today in the US, but I hear that sadly it’s not in the UK until next week - HOWEVER Forbidden Planet Derby will have copies to purchase for my signing on Saturday, so do come along! It was meant to be out this week here, but ongoing distribution issues have delayed things.

Monster worlds collide in a classic clash of the titans. Wonderfully shot with style in spades and a terrific cast. Not perfect perhaps, but it kind of is. 1943.

Satanism in New York, suicidal themes and lesbian subtext put Lewton's bleak classic ahead of it's time. A hauntingly nihilistic dark triumph. 1943.

Amicus' fourth anthology is a ghoulish delight. Collins versus psycho Santa is iconic but it's Cushing who steals your heart. Literally. 1972.

She doesn't quite get the same love as her more prolific big-bug pals. But with great effects and spectacular creature carnage she's a keeper. 1957.
