I saw âJourney to the Seventh Planetâ shortly after it came out. Scared the $&#% of me as a kid.
Watched it again a few years ago. It did not impress.
I may still have this somewhere in the basement.

I found it!
I remember when the Ghoul ran that film (I have it on VHS, somewhere), and when the one guy bought it by going through the side of a truck, a voice grunted, âOwh, I ripped mah jeans!â
That just kills me!
I saw it when I was a kid still in Michigan, mustâve been the Ghoul. I watched it again a few years ago, less spooky but more fun.
George SandersâŠwhat he did for money. I remember there were a lot of Froggy jokes because of the toad-under-glass. What was the purpose of the toad anyhow, I forgot?
I always thought the lead biker was a dead ringer (pun intended) for David Warner.
Finished stuff.
I last saw it last October. I think the frog had mystical significance of some sort. It wasnât really explained in depth.
Added to my Halloween watch list. Apparently it was on Elvira Movie Macabre which I watched when I was a kid, so I mightâve seen it, but that was long ago so itâll be all new to me.
Wonder if I can get the family to watch it with me. Sometimes they love my weird movie suggestions, other times they hate them.
yeah, it was oblique. the scenes that I actually remembered from my first viewing was the ritual bike jumping in the opening credits, and when the girl wants to fool around but the boy wants to catch a frog.
Deep Red (1975)
Dir: Dario Argento
Cast: David Hemmings, Daria Nicolodi
One of my very favorites. Just as in Blow-up, Hemmings is investigating a murder that he may or may not have correctly seen. Although much attention is paid to grisly slayings, as the killer kills and kills again to cover their tracks, the mystery plays fair and can be solved by those paying attention. With an excellent score by Goblin (although they would do even better work for Argentoâs next film, Suspiria).
