Psychotronica


It pays to have low friends in high places (Wait, is that right? Yes) as Jim Henshaw sent me a link from Boing Boing listing a ton of cult movies that are chronicled in Michael Weldon's PSYCHOTRONIC VIDEO GUIDE and available for free download from the Internet Archive. Well worth watching to study how they did pulp filmmaking back in the good old days.

It helps to bring a six-pack to your computer if you are going to watch these movies as they are all definitely "psychotronic."


The list includes (copied from Boing-Boing):

The Amazing Mr. X
The Amazing Transparent Man
The Ape
Assignment: Outer Space
Atom Age Vampire
The Atomic Brain
Attack of the Giant Leeches
Attack From Space
The Beast of Hollow Mountain
The Beatniks
Bloody Pit of Horror
The Brain That Wouldn't Die
Bride of the Gorilla
Cabinet of Dr. Caligari
Carnival of Souls
The Corpse Vanishes
Creature From the Haunted Sea
Daughter of Horror
The Day the Sky Exploded
Dead Men Walk
Dementia 13
Detour
The Devil of the Desert Against the Son of Hercules
Doomed To Die
Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (1920) That's just A-D. For E-Z, with the links to the videos, visit Mr. Bali Hai's blog, Eye of the Goof. Link
