Later the same voice goes, "Now you can think again." "Because he mixes in psychedelic rock music, the album is not only clever but musically enjoyable." - Jello pg. 41 & 42)

The actual Haakula LP makes me sad, as a discogs reviewer said, his records used to be full of so much hope and wonder but with Haakula it's like you're listening to an aging angry alchoholic, thus playing the bonus track. ...Which is fantastic! - Your D.J.

BC do you go all out on Halloween? or just into the records?
Avatar 2:10pm
Herk Hilligoss:

I love Halloween, but I don't always dress up in crazy costumes if that's what you mean. Lots of weird movies and friends telling ghost stories is my kind of Halloween. I also like trick or treaters and making the outside of my house spooky with music etc.

A couple of years ago Alamo ran Spider Baby at their annual Halloween "lock In"Dismember the Alamo. Both of your favorites there I feel are maligned due to their Public Domain and low budget status. Both are in INCREDIBLE films.

There were things I liked about the Krampus movie. Some of the actors reactions were kind of unbelieveable which kinda took me out of the verisimilitude. Like, "My son just got eaten.... oh well" kinda thing

I wouldn't let my kids listen to some of his adult work like Haackula and Electronic Lucifer 2 probably.

I also like the Mondo Macabro book, or Monster Magazine by Tim Paxton

the Psychotronic guide is handy cuz it mentions which films have musical numbers. I've been using it as a guide to record audio off the youtubes, when possible.

@Herb: Monster Magazine really looks great, have to check out if there's an affordable subscription to Germany somehow ... @Mr. Fab: Big Psychotronic fan here, too!

Mr Fab:

"Electric Lucifer 2" a CD I bought the last time i visited the Rhino Records store before they closed. :(
Avatar 3:49pm
Herk Hilligoss:

The Psychotronic Book was the only book to include a review of "Frankenstein's Planet of Monsters", a 8mm sci-fi monster film by my episode artist Michael Brunelle. Lost Media Archive later remastered this film from the original U-matic source and re-issued the VHS. The Bleeding Skull book vol. 2 coming out later this summer will be talking about this film as well :)
Avatar 3:49pm
zivilars:

another nice little book is "The Book Of Lists Horror" - sounds quite generic, not the REAL deep cuts, of course, but I like it
Avatar 3:51pm
zivilars:

not comparable to Psychotronic & Co. of course, though
Avatar 3:52pm
Herk Hilligoss:

Mr. Fab I think Monster Magazine is mostly sold exclusively on Amazon. I think Tim is about to retire. Only one more issue coming soon!
Avatar 3:52pm
