Well pooh. Apparently I previewed the post but didn't post it. Anyway.
Guess the theme.
Black Sabbath (Original title: I Tre Volti Della Paura) (1963) Boris Karloff et al
Three vignettes of Italian Horror. Great movie. Terrible dubbing into Italian.
They Might be Giants (1971) George C. Scott, Joanne Woodward, Jack Gilford
Billed as a Mystery/Comedy, the mystery remains unresolved and the "comedy" is better described as satire. I'd like to watch the original cut before the studio chopped fifteen minutes out. Still, it's not as bad as I make it sound.
Them! (1954) James Whitmore, Joan Weldon, James "The Thing from Another Planet" Arness, Edmund "Santa Claus" Gwenn
A really good '50s horror flick.
Fun fact: James Arness was originally considered for the role of Davy Crockett, but after Disney saw Fess Parker's performance in this movie, he offered the role to Fess instead.
Funner fact: Darwood/Derwood/Dum-Dum Stevens ("Bewitched" reference) had an uncredited role.
Funnest fact: As did Leonard Nimoy.
In queue: The Knack... and How to Get It (1965), The Misfits (1961)
Not in queue: All the Fine Young Cannibals (1960). Can't find it anywhere.
