August has been a significant month for SCREAMBOX, which celebrated the anniversary of Tobe Hooper’s original The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, took a look back at the classic 1985 Clue in Who Done It: The Clue Documentary, got creature feature crazy with the sci-fi horror Subject, and had a blast with the Ghostbusters-inspired sci-fi horror comedy The Ghastly Brothers.
In addition to the extremely controversial The Woman hitting the streaming service earlier this week, SCREAMBOX has now added a trio of classics, including David Blyth’s 1992 My Grandpa Is a Vampire, which stars Al Lewis as a frail old man by day and fanged flyer of the undead at night. But when his visiting grandson discovers Vernon’s dark secret, can they team up to take down a stake-making slimeball?
Also added to the service is Grzegorz Warchol’s 1986 I Like Bats, which combines absurdist black comedy with jolts of old-school gothic horror for a slyly contemporary take on the bloodsucker mythos.
Lastly, we’re heading back to 1975 with Luigi Bazzoni’s Footprints, the most criminally underseen giallo that stars Florinda Bolkan as a freelance translator, tormented by dreams about astronauts on the moon, who visits a deserted seaside town whose inhabitants know her; although she does not know them.
