9:45 PM - Horror Hotel aka City Of The Dead (1960) - A young coed travels to a village to continue her research on witchcraft, and discovers some horrifying secrets. (This is one of my favorite horror films from the 60's. It's awesome. So much atmosphere).

4:30 AM Friday Morning - Haxan: Witchcraft Through The Ages (1922) - A silent horror film/documentary. It's also in the Criterion Collection. It's quite something. esp for coming out in the 1920's.

9:30 PM - Godzilla, King Of The Monsters (1956) - The American version with Raymond Burr.

12:30 AM - Godzilla Vs. Mothra (1964) - IMO the best of the Godzilla vs. movies.
2:15 AM Mothra (1962) - Mothra's debut film.
Saturday
4 AM - The Town That Dreaded Sundown (1977) - Texarkana is terrorized by a hooded serial killer. (Inspired by a series of real attacks in Texarkana in the 1940s).
Speaking of Godzilla, I saw the new movie. And it's badass.
So many references to the old Toho films. Lots of monster action.
