May 19 10 2:14 PM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	In the vein of my last topic, what is the most obscure or rare horror film that you have a copy of? If the rare/obscure name tag perspective doesn't work for you, what would you state as being your favorite obscure horror title from the 60s/70s and why?

Now... if you want to talk about the '20s and '30s, THAT's a different matter entirely.

Makes me wonder just what could be obscure to us obscurians. In this crowd, I'll hide in plain sight with the 1980 tv movie Rappaccini's Daughter or The Monocle (le monocle rit jaune) which is obscure in its own right. Guide to Resources on CHFB

Hmmm...ah...The Red Room Riddle (1983)...no...that one is also on YouTube. Guess I don't have anything that can't already be seen online.

May 20 10 10:30 AM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	Master Of Horror which is an Argentine film based on the stories of Poe. It had been on my Holy Grail list for years. This version runs only an hour and has two stories as this was cut by Jack Harris to run on a re-release double bill with The 4-D Man (retitled Master Of Terror). The third story can be found on a Something Weird version of Legend Of Horror. One of these days when I'm too bored to do anything else I'll restore the flick to its original form with all three stories. "The world's going to change tonight, doctor, I'm glad you'll be able to watch it. And... happy Halloween."

May 20 10 12:59 PM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	Honestly, tremendously cool responses. A ton of meat for the wish list. For me, I would be hard pressed to whip out a super rare film in this day of torrent downloads and such. I was pretty excited to obtain a few Andy Milligan films recently. (Bloodthirsty Butchers and Sexpot on 42nd Street) My brother just got 6 Jes Franco flicks that were never released in the US. That doesn't mean much considering 80% of his films seem to be non-legit releases anyhow. No matter where they have been released. Which is the Franco movie with the silver Frankenstein?

May 20 10 10:33 PM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	Among the more obscure items I own are... UNHEIMLICHE GESCHICHTEN (1932) PAN TWARDOWSKI (1936) which is a Polish film about a pact with the devil or something like that. The original Japanese version of HALF HUMAN (1955). LA MARCA DEL MUERTO (1961) which is the Mexican film that Jerry Warren would later carve up to make CREATURE OF THE WALKING DEAD. DEATH BY INVITATION (1971) The uncut version of PROPHECIES OF NOSTRADAMUS (1974). Several obscure horror films from Hong Kong like CROCODILE EVIL and THE DEVIL. Several fantasy movies that came out of Thailand in the 70's and 80's like KRAI THONG 1 & 2, HANUMAN AND THE FIVE KAMEN RIDERS, THE NOBLE WAR.

I saw MASTER OF HORROR at the drive-in and have never been able to remember what it was. I guess some of my obscurities would be NO SURVIVORS PLEASE, DARKENED ROOMS and NIGHT LIFE OF THE GODS.

May 20 10 11:22 PM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	I don't know how obscure they are, but these are some of mine - The Legend of Hillbilly John The Monitors Tarzana the Wild Girl (as far as jungle movie) The Re-Incarnate Faustina (supernatural musical comedy)

Unfortunately, my remaining (semi-)functioning VCR (half of a Samsung combo, actually) is producing extremely sporadic results these days, with frequent drop-outs. (The "real" VCR got screwed up when I tried to play what turned out to be a bad copy of Immortal Sins a couple of months ago. Ever since, I can get sound just fine but no picture, unless I fast forward, which of course means no sound. whine whine whine) Guess I'll be hitting the thrift shops tomorrow in hopes of finding a working model ...

One of these days when I'm too bored to do anything else I'll restore the flick to its original form with all three stories. The original Argentinian title is "Obras maestras del terror" and you can find it easily on the web, the complete three stories version, but in Spanish of course. I'm not sure, but "Legend of Horror" flash-backs (= the Argentinian movie) are probably not the complete version of this sketch, and the two others in "Master of Horror" can be cut as well. If you really want to restore the flick, you could get the Argentinian version as a model, and insert the (possibly) cut sequences in your version. According to IMDb: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0054134/ the original running time is 115 mns. Last Edited By: todmichel May 21 10 1:23 PM. Edited 1 times.
