Published: April 14, 2015, 4:09 p.m.

With Special Guest: Aaron Spadaro! You feel like you've seen this movie before. It's 60s Italian horror, there's castles and witches and skeletons, and it stars Barbara Steele. Why of course! This is just like Black Sunday! Only it isn't. It's different. Some of those differences are more significant than others. The Shakespherean-like gothic melodrama lures you in slowly, and before you know it you're caught up in The Long Hair of Death!
