Now.. now easy boy. Are you talking hypothetically or are you hallucinating?

Yeah, have you seen Dr. Black and Mr Hyde from 1976?  It's about a kindly black doctor in Watts that becomes an evil white man when we drinks an experimental potion.  It's also a 70's blaxploitation film that's pretty well done.

No...I shall have to do so! Smile

Looks like it was on Elvira (lol).

There was a zombie chess thread once upon a time on chess.com:

Yes, and another forgotten gem of "Blaxploitation" in the 70's was Black Shampoo (1976), which was "inspired" by Shampoo (1975) of Warren Beatty fame.  It's not well done at all, but it is highly entertaining in a ridculous way.

In the horror genre I saw "House" for a halloween showing once. It was the best worst movie ever. It was deliciously horrible.

You gotta love the title (lol)

Hm, good bad movies...there's something I've devoted a good deal of attention to...

Well thank you, Mr Obvious!

Funny though, I'd never thought of that tanned thing before in connection with a vampire. Laughing

YES!  Love at First Bite indeed it was!  Nice job!  Have you seen it?

[Dracula/George Hamilton] "How do you know?"

[Renfield] "They are wearing shoes."

Yes, but we are chess players.  We are supposed to be dorks.  Even when we are out on the mean streets bustin' heads!

AndyClifton

Hey, I knew it!  I just didn't want to be rudimentary enough to come out with it.
