Double Bill Pressbook:
Witchcraft and The Horror of It All
The Magic Witch Deflectors giveaway is what makes this double bill a fun event. Watching Lon Chaney Jr. is also a treat.
Movie Pressbook: Black Sunday (1960)
Still a creepy chiller in composition and style, Black Sunday (La Maschera Del Demonio) is essential viewing for any horror fan worth his or her fangs. Read the over-sized pressbook, then read my review. And for your next party, why not have a "Ghoul Contest?"
Movie Pressbook: Robinson Crusoe on Mars (1964)

More of William Castle's publicity engine in full throttle for The Night Walker.
