Greetings, HYSTOphiles, and welcome to our Film Noir celebration! We start out with what may be the most famous film in the canon: 1944’s Double Indemnity, starring Barbra Stanwyck and Fred MacMurray…

Both of them looking pretty guilty if you ask me…

We then jump ahead almost forty years to 1981’s Film Noir-inspired Body Heat, starring Kathleen Turner and William Hurt…

Both of them looking pretty guilty if you ask me…

Also joining in the fun is our good friend Shawna West!

Welcome all HYSTOphiles to Episode #169! We go back to the 70’s again with the 1974 thriller The Little Girl Who Lives Down The Lane…starring a VERY young Jodie Foster!

Only 13 and already a shining star…

As I said, it’s a 70’s thriller, so you know our good friend Erin Casteneda is along for the ride! Erin also gives us her take on Skinamarink, which you will remember we discussed in Episode #168.

Thanks to Skinamarink I’m going to have to figure out how to recreate this in our house for next Halloween…

Naturally we also talk about what’s been entertaining us lately (LOTS of Oscar talk!), and Keith lets me know what I will be watching for Episode #170 (Danny DeVito, anyone?).

We hope you join our movie party, because we really do want to know…

HYSTO? #168 – TWO UNANNOUNCED FILMS! “Skinamarink” & “21”

It’s for you…

Heya HYSTOphiles! Well, we were supposed to discuss the film “Jack The Bear” on this episode, but we couldn’t find any place to watch it! So, Keith decided on the 2008 film “21,” starring a creature we have rechristened with the name Kevin “Puke” Spacey. (oh, you know why…).

Puke…

Before that we discuss a film that we have both been obsessed with lately. It’s 2022’s indie horror film “Skinamarink.”

I could try to explain why this photo is so disturbing, but you just need to see the film…

Add to this our usual discussion of what’s been entertaining us latelly (LOVE you, Horrorweekly!), and I let Keith know what forgotten 70’s film he will be watching for next time (with a special guest!). We hope you join our movie party, because we really do want to know…
