Friday Night at the Movies


Hola, all you loonie tunes out there. Professor Fether here. Tarr and I have had a couple of long and grueling -- not to mention downright traumatic -- days, so we're ready to sit back, get all natural-like, put the cooler between us, put the popcorn on the table and watch tonight's movie -- SWAMP WOMEN.

But before we talk about the movie, I have to tell you all I saw the video tapes of our "adventure" searching for the Reffitt Swamp Monster. All I can say is I don't feel responsible for anything that went on during that weekend. I see the evidence before my eyes but I have a hard time believing it really happened. It is truly all a blur to me...if, indeed, it did happen. You'll see what I mean when the tape airs in an upcoming episode.

So, this is one reason I'm ready to sit back and watch SWAMP WOMEN. This gem was made in 1955 and has the singular distinction of being Roger Corman's directorial debut. Shot in black and white. Stars Beverly Garland, Carole Mathews and Touch Conners. Yeah, Touch Connors. He later became known as Mike Conners. Heh heh. Mikey was born with an Armenian name. Something that sounds lots cooler than "Mike." Or "Touch." Well, okay, I do like Touch. Touch Fether. Hey, I like that! Mayb I'll change my name from Damien to Touch. Well, I'll have to think about that. It would ruin my initials. I like PDF. Has a certain ring to it. SWAMP WOMEN was written by David Stern. He wrote all those Francis the Talking Mule movies in the early to mid 1950s. He also wrote the novel to the first one. Hmm. A Francis the Talking Mule movie night wouldn't be too bad. Something to consider. This movie has some of the greatest taglines I've ever read:

Flaming passions against a background of weird adventure!
Scarlet Women Out to Get Every Thrill They Could Steal!
Branded Women! Notorious Women! Scarlet Women! Which is Deadlier?


With taglines like that, ya just gotta love the flick! Hmm, I wonder which is deadlier?

Oh yeah, check out the website. Lots has been added and updated. Start with the S'Newsletter and take it from there.

Everything That You Do


Professor Fether here. Well, Tarr still won't say anything about our trip in search of the Reffitt Swamp Monster. My nightmares are gruesome. Are they glimpses into the past? Or are they just figments of my imagination. Hard to say at this point. Tarr did give me this picture. He said it was taken at Uncle Ray's. I don't remember it. Oh well, It's not the first time and won't be the last. Heh heh! I'll keep badgering Tarr, though. He'll crack one of these days. Much like Inmate 23. There was a tough one. Tarr's love of Experimentation (see the new entry in the Medical Records section of our website) produced some interesting results with that subject. Anyway, Tarr has mentioned taped footage of our adventure. He says Uncle Ray sent it to him. He refuses to show it to me, though. He has it hidden.

Speaking of the website, we've updated a few things.
The aforementioned Medical Records section, Dr. Tarr's records. Get to know the "real" Dr. Tarr.
The S'Newsletter has been updated. There's a new entry by Dr. Z. He reviews the movie NECRONOMICON with his usual critical eye.
Eddie's Place is open...partially. The Poems section is open even though still under construction. We've got all the poems up. Three of them are even audio files for your listening pleasure. They were read by a very good friend of ours, D.L. Holt. Let us know what you think of 'em. We're in the process of producing more. We would like to eventually have all of them as audio files.

Back to the Reffitt Swamp Monster. To get the whole truth about our trip you'll have to wait for the webisode. Tarr says he'll reveal the chronicle of our journey then. That's really funny, though, because I don't remember seeing any cameras around. Oh yeah. I don't remember anything else either. Go figure! It will be out the first week in October. Hey, that coincides with our favorite Horror Convention CINEMA WASTELAND. What a good place to reveal our adventure. That Dr. Tarr can be quite...alert at times.

Last, our new DVD is due to be launched the first of September. It's gonna knock yer socks off. Look for a trailer coming soon!

And, and really, there is gonna be a Psycho Cinema Web TV Show. And it's gonna be cool! It's gonna rock yer...did I say that already? Well, it's true. It's true. What is truth? Or should that be TRUTH?....

Dr. Tarr here. I had to give Fether his evening shot. Heh heh! I do love my job. And since it's Friday night that means it's MOVIE NIGHT. And that means I get to pick the movie. Fether is certainly in no position to proffer an opinion. Heh heh! Hmm. I think I'll choose...

A double feature! Oh yeah! THE KILLER SHREWS. Made in 1959. Yeah, another '59er, eh? Heh heh! This one stars James Best. Yeah, the guy who was on that old TV show THE DUKES OF HAZZARD. Here's the official blurb: On an isolated island, a small group of people is terrorised by giant, voracious shrews in the midst of a hurricane. Sounds good. WRONG! This one's a real smeller, like a liver that's been left out too long. It's gonna be fun! Whattaya think, Prof? Prof? Heh heh. He's drooling...he must like this movie too. And then we're gonna watch I BURY THE LIVING. Made in 1958. Stars Richard Boone. It'll put us to sleep. We're set for the night!

Oh, and as for the Hunt for the Reffit Swamp Monster (or the Reffitt Road Swamp Monster as i like to call it), I'll let you in on a little secret. I really don't know much of what happened either. I guess we'll all have to wait to see the webisode, won't we? Heh heh. Well, okay, I do remember Missy and lots of blood and the monster and more blood...but that's about it. Uncle Ray sure pulled a number on us. Good one, Uncle Ray!

Oop, here comes the movie. No more talking...until the movie starts. Heh heh heh!!
