Jacob Calta

🚨 NEW MUSIC FOR BANDCAMP FRIDAY! 🚨 Last year, I was honored with the chance to write music for a little film made by an old friend & it resulted in a loving ode to classic Italian film music with some of my patented twists. Have a listen & buy it today! jacobcalta.bandcamp.com/album/antagoni…

Ed “Big Daddy” Roth Monster Catalog (1964)

WILD AT HEART (1990, Lynch)

@TTuttle312 No joke, watch it in Italian & you'll find an insanely atmospheric & worthwhile piece of dreamlike horror. The amount of ADR dumped into the film by the English dub studio is insane by comparison. Frezza (with presumably his own voice lol) gives a much better performance too.

@stagescreen60 Friggin' Bob! In all seriousness, this one has definitely grown on me over the years. Didn't hate it to start with, but my appreciation of it has only grown over time.

THE HOUSE BY THE CEMETERY (1981, L. Fulci)

@stagescreen60 Love this movie. Oh and here is my thousand-plus word essay on the movie: letterboxd.com/masterofoneinc…

🛸 CAPTAIN KRONOS: VAMPIRE HUNTER Brian Clemens | 1974 #horror Hammer takes a stab at a new franchise-leading character in Kronos, and though the movie has gained a deserved cult following, it was too little too late for the studio.

THE ODD ONE DIES (1997, P. Yau)

Right now you can get 12 albums on my bandcamp for 12 bucks. That's over 100 songs. I'm tryna get a PC so I can step up my game/work, I currently make everything on an old iPad. I'd love it if you all would go check them out and pick up some copies. Theinstitute91.bandcamp.com

No one captures a sunset like our man Michael Mann. Vinegar Syndrome's gorgeous restoration of THE KEEP plays tonight as part of our 4 day pop-up collaboration with @PlazaAtlanta and @VideodromeATL

Whatever happened to people singing sea shanties online? Are these skills now lost to history?

My review of the 1932 Pre-Code gangster gem Scarface - a key influence on the genre for decades to come: filmizon.com/movie_reviews/… @stagescreen60 @cjzisi @AFizgig @canadense @kkcorby14 @aillsley3 @BoldenSkip @cmattmetric @bales1181 @peace_amit_love @mikehaskins9697 @ifwtpod

🛸 BLACK SABBATH Mario Bava | 1963 #horror Three excellent stories in an anthology hosted by (and starring) Boris Karloff. Hugely influential and my personal favorite Bava movie.

Remembering Patrick Joseph McGoohan on what would have been his 98th Birthday. The word "genius" is used too often these days, but in this instance it is more than apt. An actor, writer, director, and producer of unrivaled talent, he left behind an astonishing legacy.

Quintessential 1970s mass market paperbacks.

Most social media platforms reward bombastic rhetorical barbs devoid of nuance. If you’ve ever wondered why so many full-time YouTubers and podcasters crash out or tear each other apart over fleeting popularity, it’s because they often become puppets of the algorithm. They trade mental health and discernment for dopamine hits and traffic despite the steep long-term costs. If you see a creator who successfully leverages social media’s reach while also staying grounded and releasing consistent books, merch, etc., you are witnessing something rather rare.

SOME CALL IT LOVING (1973, J.B. Harris)

🛸 MONSTER A GO-GO Bill Rebane, Herschell Gordon Lewis | 1965 #horror #scifi Rebane started this mess, and HGL finished it on the cheap. I use “finished” generously because this movie is… woof.

AMERICAN GRAFFITI (1973, G. Lucas)

DAYBREAK EXPRESS (1953, D.A. Pennebaker)
