What's this about?

Lately, it seems like many of the movies/shows are just a rehash or reboot of things that have already been done. And so I started to dive into the past. It's been fun, but I find myself losing track of which ones I’ve seen and whether or not I enjoyed them. Sometimes the titles themselves just don't tell me enough to remember.

I wouldn’t have voluntarily watched a lot of these movies when I was younger. It’s strange how interests change. That goes for what I read, too. I have another blog that explores books. I’m mostly reading older fiction and memoirs, and some of the books have led me to movies/shows and vice versa. In those cases, I may post the book review over here as well.

There will be spoilers, which is different than my book reviews. That’s mostly because I want to have enough information to help me remember what I’ve seen. I’m getting older. The brain doesn’t cooperate like it used to. What can I say? The gray hairs are catching up with me!

Murder by Television - 1935

Blind pick for movie night. It has Bela Lugosi in it, so it had to be good! Right?

Honestly, I can't remember much about this movie. The title helped me remember a bit. A man is transmitting over TV, and toward the end of his speech, he moans and collapses to the floor. Who is responsible for his death?

This movie was crazy. They added a twin into the plot randomly, and I can't remember who the killer was. Also, the explanation was insanity. The most interesting thing in the movie was the variety of screen wipes that they used.
