I feel so ill-used when I oversleep and still feel so tired when I wake up. I was dreadfully tired when I went to bed last night, too, but managed to put on coffee for the morning, so I can be mildly functional now. But enough whining from me, on with my late Monstrous Monday post.
In a previous post I used a shot from Invasion of the Body Snatchers but foolishly did not identify it. I remedy the omission with another shot from that movie. It is a pretty good flick, but I confess my favorite scenes are early on, when the menace threatens in an undefined manner, and the characters are drinking martinis. I like martinis.
Here is a monster of the human variety, Joan Crawford in StraitJacket. That is one of my go-to movies. William Castle was a highly entertaining producer and director. I love his stuff.
I continue this rather disjointed post (Non-Sequitur Monsters?) with a shot from a silent movie that doesn’t get a lot of attention, The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari. I have not seen it in a while but remember liking it. I will have to watch it one day while running in place on the mini-tramp. That is my usual way of watching silent movies. Otherwise I want to knit and crochet while I watch, and you really need to keep both eyes on a silent movie.
Now I am over 250 words, so that is enough trolling my Media Library for today. I hope to get some new monsters to share one day soon, but you know me: No promises.
