Video Cat's 31 Days of Halloween Countdown: Day 26 "The Hunger" is the consummate 80s goth film. From its opening scene of Bauhaus performing "Bela Lugosi's Dead" to the perfect casting of David Bowie in an erotic vampire story, the aesthetic and attitude are definitive. The plot of director Tony Scott's 1983 work centers around the love triangle between a scientist studying aging, a centuries old vampire and her lover. Beautifully designed and filmed, the hunger remains an influence on goth culture with a healthy cult following. #thehunger #davidbowie #catherinedeneuve #susansarandon #videocatyvr #nowwatching #vampires #bauhaus

Video Cat's 31 Days of Halloween Countdown: Day 21 Italian master Mario Bava's first outing as director "Black Sunday" (1960) ranks among the greatest entries in the horror canon. A 17th Century princess who happens to be a vampire is executed for witchcraft and subsequently resurrected 200 years later seeking revenge on the descendants of the brother who oversaw her sentence. Pauline Kael characterized Black Sunday as "a rich draught of vampire's blood. With its crypts and cobwebs and eerie old castles set in batty, steamy forests." An extremely influential film. #blacksunday #horrorfilm #videocatyvr #nowwatching

Video Cat's 31 Days of Halloween Countdown: Day 20 Considered unusually violent and sadistic in its scenes of violence and torture during its 1968 release, "The Witchfinder General" is the tale of lawyer Matthew Hopkins (horror master Vincent Price) and his 17th Century witchhunting exploits set to the backdrop of the English civil war. Highly censored in its UK release, the film was distributed uncensored to the drive-in and grindhouse circuit in the US with brief additions and a new title to tie it into the Roger Corman Edgar Allan Poe films Price was famous for (despite not being one.) A significant film with an acclaimed soundtrack. #witchfindergeneral #vincentprice #videocatyvr #nowwatching #classicmovies
