Attack of the Giant Leeches.

It’s a holiday weekend and I’m not expecting much action here tonight, so let’s keep it simple and just watch some dumb movie.

Here’s Attack of the Giant Leeches, from 1959. The title says it all, I think.

Public domain horror movies are a tough sell when they’re absent the silhouette of Tom Servo, but I still love ’em in their natural state. I must’ve seen 75+ of them by now, yet I can only remember the particulars from a modest handful. I kinda treat them more as decorations than actual films.

We did that survey about “background noise movies” a short while ago. I can’t believe I forgot to mention all of the public domain horror stuff! They’re perfect to go to sleep to on nights like this. Quiet, creepy, and dim enough to act as nightlights. Try it sometime. (Maybe tonight?)
