The Terrornauts 1967
This movie! The early parts of it are an academia procedural where everyone argues about funding. Then we see a robot that looks like a child’s drawing of a Dalek. After that things get deeply weird, including a matter-transference side-track into a group of post-apocalyptic humanoid-sacrificing aliens. Also a lot of props that looked like they were hand-scribbled by Sharpies.

Dracula vs. Frankenstein 1971
I gave the movie two extra full stars because Al Adamson did not kill the dog.

The Chronicles of Riddick 2004
This movie is over the top of movies that are over the top. I feel like I should hate it but I very much don’t.

Dagger Eyes 1983
Very interesting and engaging story. Terrible dialog. Hilarious line reads.

Happy Death Day 2017
Went into this one pretty blind and not expecting much, but I got an even stronger Giallo vibe from this film than I did the intentionally giallo-inflected Malignant. Surprises like this are why I watch so many random movies.

Married Too Young 1962
There’s a scene where she suggests to him that she get a job in a tone of voice that says “I could sell both my kidneys” and he reacts as though she’s suggested bartering sex for subway sandwiches. These old 50s morality stories are so weird.
Also Dick Van Dyke and Mary Tyler Moore looked younger than these two.
