"Svengoolie" has such a great line-up for September, why did he have to ruin it with "War Of The Gargantuas?"
For those having never seen it, there is a campy scene featuring an ersatz nightclub singer, in a nightclub scene. I think she sings, then gets picked up, and rejected, by a Gargantua. She is the sister of someone famous--I don't remember or care--but the scene is the best moment in the movie.
But after the sublime 1931 "Frankenstein," who wants to see crap????????????
So, we will be watching a Grand Guignol horror special--1969's "What Ever Happened To Aunt Alice?" It stars Geraldine Page, Mildred Dunnock, Ruth Gordon, Rosemary Forsyth....what a cast!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It is so campy, darlings, and Ruth is so Ruth! It's like Minnie Castevet coming to visit the Southwest.
After that we may watch "AHS: Bloody Mary," about the legendary bloody ghost who comes out of a mirror after saying her name three times. Then we may watch "Sissy," a 2022 high school mean girls revenge story. Those are always fun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So, what you watch tonight is up to you, darlings! But I warn you, "War Of The Gargntuas" does not get better the second time around!!!!!!!!!!!!

How was it?!!
I was always an easy target for the Mean Girls at school and church, so it’s cathartic to see them taken down a peg!!
Victoria,
We didn't watch the means girls story. Save that for another time.
We watched "What Ever Happened To Aunt Alice?" and "Bloody Mary." The first was a hoot, great fun, the second not as satisfying as I had hoped.
