I thought I'd get a lot of formally returned items in the free box set but they sent me 5 really nice records.I believe I bought 4 mystery boxes on top of a lot of records that I selected myself. I ended up getting some nice records I wouldn’t have normally picked up myself. But also some crap (a Chip and Dale score?) and some doubles.

The film itself is a memorable one for me it's I believe the first film I watched from De Palma. I was maybe 10 or 11 or so and we just had gotten cable TV way back when:) I did recently pick up the 4K to replace my old Blockbuster Video VHS tape so I'm excited about that. Have a great holiday Evan it's always good to hear from you.bpwlogan wrote: ↑Tue Dec 17, 2024 12:34 am 20241216_183226.jpgI have owned that lp for so long and would rarely listen to it. It is only in the last maybe 5 years or so have I really appreciated that score. It is so good!

Hope for a better new year but that is probably not in the forecast.Sisters rules! Especially when you consider BDP was probably knocking off both of his leading ladies at that time, haha. What a player ;)
I only remember the shower seen from this film so I can't help on that. I will eventually give it a revisit.
I not that long ago watched De Palma’s Sisters and really enjoyed that. Had not seen that one in over 20 years...similar to Dressed to Kill.

Maybe he was doing a more obvious Norman Bates/Mother personality disorder or something along that line. It was 1980 and I'd like to think he was trying to surprise the audience in the end. I always liked that some of his films are known to have characters in "Bad Disguise" mode it makes his films fun to watch on repeated viewings.Oh he takes it to the limit in Cain haha. I must say though, as brutally obvious as the ‘Indian’ mask was/is in Body Double, my first watch I had absolutely no clue who the killer was!
I remember watching Raising Cain in the old $1 theater way back when and this badly disguise man in a dress shows up in the end. I knew where that was going:)
