Oethel ratings for this month:
Lydia with a solid 3,
Christopher gives it a 3 1/2,
and Barry gives it a 3 and says “it immediately gives you a wonderful character,dazzles you with George Pal effects, then puts everyone’s favorite jump roping squirrel in the background for most of the running time. Lots of charm and a distinctly Capra-esque feel but needed more Rupert.”

Carnival of Souls (1962)

Lydia, Barry and Christopher try and figure out the creepiest aspects of Carnival of Souls. Is it the ghoulish visitor or that guy that lives across the hall? If I’m honest, I’d rather spend time with the ghoul.
