#SantoSaturday: Santo vs. Animals, part 1 – #ElSanto meets the Wooly Bully! Santo’s encounters with Buffalo ( = American Bison) pre-dated Sam the Sham and the Pharoah’s 1965 hit “Wooly Bully” (a thing “with 2 big horns and a wooly jaw”), but you get the idea. #CineMexicano

#SwipeFile 103 – Karloff Karbon Kopies #BorisKarloff's image as Frankenstein’s monster was frequently swiped but was also very specific. For generic horror purposes, images from The Mummy (’32) & The Haunted Strangler (’58) were useful. Details: tinyurl.com/bd3zv2mm

#BallyhooTuesday – Monster Truck Bally(hoo) Local cinema owners went to great lengths to promote the films they were showing. Why not have a mini-“parade?” Borrow a truck, attach some signs & drive it around town! Better yet, add a life-size monster, robot, etc. #horrormovies
