Please note that this review is just for The Mephisto Waltz.
Although in some ways this movie seems very dated in its 60s and 70s obsession with the occult, this movie can still provide some chills and thrills. Curt Jurgens (who I remembered well from his role as a German submarine commander opposite Robert Mitchum in "The Enemy Below," one of the best WWII sub movies) is the leader of a Satanic cult and a brilliant but sadistic pianist with a sinister plan. He intends to take possession ... Read More

Wow, where do I start? The only redeeming feature of the Mephisto Waltz? Jacqueline Bissette! It's always a win-win situation looking at that lady. Wowzers...
The plot is not clever at all and really a rehash of Star Trek episodes with people changing bodies and throw in an occult angle to it and voila.
What is so hilarious is how everyone acts like Alan Alda is the sexiest thing, couldn't figure that one out? The rituals didn't seem authentic to a satanic cult, the psychodelic ... Read More

The House on Skull Mountain (Ron Honthaner, 1974)
Silly blaxploitation effort that's actually not half bad, as long as you're willing to ignore the fact that most of the aspects of this movie were done better in other flicks.
Plot: an old voodoo woman who lives in a mansion outside Atlanta (as you may surmise, the mansion is, in fact, on Skull Mountain) dies, and her descendants are gathered together for the reading of the will. Her descendants are something of a mixed lot (of just ... Read More

A pair of long-limbed occult movies here, neither particularly memorable (thus a disc I've already sold). HOUSE is a blaxploitation voodoo yarn with a white hero (Victor French, of all people). Essentially an Old Dark House-style mystery with estranged relatives (three black, one white) brought together for the reading of their great-grandmother's will, but the maid and butler, who practise voodoo, have other plans for the money. Good concept, but the production is strictly TV movie level, hardly surprising ... Read More

Buy this movie exclusively for the Mephisto Waltz, the Skull House is the worst directed, acted and predictable movie ever made. The Mephisto Waltz is a great psych thirller, even thought I can only see Alan Alda as Hawkeye for MASH. Pay close attention because the plot can be complicated and the switching of time frames makes it difficult to follow, but still worth it. Good acting and directing!!
