Welcome to Derry Review and Cast
The terrifying town of Derry, Maine, is back on television with the new HBO prequel series, "Welcome to Derry." The show is set in 1962 and provides information on the origins of the clown known as Pennywise. The series is a chilling and visually impressive journey. In addition to its traditional horror elements, the series also effectively addresses many of the real-world issues of the early 1960s.

Homicidal
Homicidal (1961), along with Psycho (1960), and—God help us—Ed Wood’s Glen or Glenda (1953) [1], expose the societal prohibitions of the era regarding gender-bending, transvestism, and the basic flaunting of societal conventions, especially as it relates to identifiable sex roles and how a person identifies, gender-wise. We have the same debate raging today, the same sense of taboo and the same prejudices played out on a much more open and more furious scale—also with a greater sense of understanding and acceptance. William Castle, the famed provocateur and impresario who shocked the heinies of Eisenhower-era America by wiring their theater seats for The Tingler (starring the always incredible horror thespian par excellence Vincent Price), here delivers a passable little thriller readymade to ride the coattails of the box-office success enjoyed by Psycho, which had the cross-dressing Norman, who imitated a woman for a reason entirely unrelated to actual transvestism.

Shadows of the Black Cat. AI-Generated.
# The Black Cat In the dim, fog-shrouded streets of Eldridge Hollow, where the gas lamps flickered like dying stars, lived Elias Crowe. He was a man of middling years, a bookseller by trade, whose shop on Marrow Lane was a repository of forgotten tomes and whispered secrets. Elias had no family, no friends to speak of—only the shadows that clung to his walls and the relentless patter of rain against his warped windowpanes. But he had Mortimer, his black cat.
