What exactly does it take to be a Baker Street Irregular? I think it's the thing I want most. #BSI #SherlockHolmes

@HolmesBooth Both of the Richardson films are severely underrated. HOUN (1983) is one of my favorite adaptations of the novel despite its many radical changes.

@joeramoni Just finished watching your video! This looks fantastic in black & white! Please do a full reedit! As a lifelong Dracula fan, I have always had a soft spot for this very silly movie. It is hardly Brooks’ best work, but it always makes me chuckle.

@diabolikdvd @WeekendatMatts Really hope to preorder from you Monday! Even if it’s only to watch the blu rays, this LE seems so superior to the U.S. edition.

[Nick Cardillo @NcardilloNick]

@medwardsbooks Really looking forward to reading this. I recently bought a U.S. edition of her second novel, BUT THE PATIENT DIED. Excited to discover a new mystery writer in the Jamesian vein!

A review four years in the making as I rank the mystery novels of P.D. James

@ahsweetmystery @ScreenDrafts @WilliamBibbiani @TheDreaClark @mangiotto Aside from wanting Marnie in part two (it’s my Hitchcock guilty pleasure), I agree with this!

[Nick Cardillo @NcardilloNick]

@ScreenDrafts @LTBcomedy @bjcolangelo @ChrisHewitt The number of Draculas and Frankensteins *should* be equal. But if including TASTE THE BLOOD OF DRACULA breaks the tie, then that’s okay with me. Arguably the best of the Dracula sequels to actually feature Lee.

@agathachristie This looks like a fantastic adaptation of an underrated Christie gem! Any hope for an English translation?

[Nick Cardillo @NcardilloNick]

@ScreenDrafts @LTBcomedy @bjcolangelo @ChrisHewitt @GrahamSkipper In a perfect world the following are all included:
Dracula
The Devil Rides Out
The Plague of the Zombies
The Curse of Frankenstein
The Brides of Dracula
The Hound of the Baskervilles
Hands of the Ripper
Frankenstein Must Be Destroyed
Twins of Evil
Curse of the Werewolf

@patrickhwillems Your enthusiasm for trains and train movies was infectious! I was taking notes! And now I’m off - despite everything - to watch The Lone Ranger!

[Nick Cardillo @NcardilloNick]

@ScreenDrafts @BillyRayBrewton Suspiria, of course!

Suspend the no-TV rule and include the BBC’s Dracula! It’s creepily effective!

[Nick Cardillo @NcardilloNick]

@DrMarkAldridge I have always thought this one was underrated. The real-time aspect doesn’t totally work, but it’s constantly suspenseful and, with Murray Gold’s score exploding as 10 opens the airlock, how can you not be on the edge of your seat?

[Nick Cardillo @NcardilloNick]

@HolmesBooth @levelbestbooks Read A Talent for Murder earlier this year and just started Book Two today!

[Nick Cardillo @NcardilloNick]

@HouseHammerPod A masterpiece. Truly one of the five or ten best things that Hammer ever made.

[Nick Cardillo @NcardilloNick]

@ScreenDrafts @BillyRayBrewton @LarsenOnFilm @joewriteswords @jlalibs @ChrisHewitt @bjcolangelo @LTBcomedy @MarkerRyan625 Well…
I’m expecting the usual titles will be in the mix but PLAGUE OF THE ZOMBIES and DEVIL RIDES OUT should not slip through the cracks. Nor should HANDS OF THE RIPPER, an underrated late masterpiece. Not sure if CASH ON DEMAND is eligible but should be required viewing!

[Nick Cardillo @NcardilloNick]

@angelini_sergio Incredibly excited for this! I have amazingly never seen Seventh Victim and can’t wait to rectify that.

[Nick Cardillo @NcardilloNick]

@ahsweetmystery I suppose the bagpipes were deemed appropriately Scottish for a book about “The Scottish Play” but the claymore swords integral to the plot or even some other bit of theatrical ephemera would have been thematically more appropriate.

[Nick Cardillo @NcardilloNick]

@cwperov @TheMysterious @TomMeadAuthor Raced through mine and finished it yesterday. It’s the best Specter novel so far!

[Nick Cardillo @NcardilloNick]

@ahsweetmystery In incredible company here!
