I miss posting reviews to the Bird Place so here's my #Letterboxd profile letterboxd.com/evillarry/ It's probably half #FilmNoir 💀 🕵️‍♂️ and #PovertyRow and half #Grindhouse #KungFu #Blaxploitation Oh yeah, I tend not to follow users who add like a thousand people at a time and only write one sentence reviews.

Lost Poverty Row Films That Actually Sound Kinda Good: IS THERE JUSTICE? (1931), another from Sono Art-World Wide. Why does this "thrill-o-drama" have "everything the public wants", you may ask? Well, here's a one-sentence description of the plot: "The brother of a woman who died in jail seeks revenge on the district attorney by getting hold of a photograph of his daughter dancing on a table on her underwear." #lostfilms #povertyrow #OldHollywood

Lost Poverty Row Films That Actually Sound Kinda Good: COCK O’ THE WALK (1930) from Sono Art-World Wide and producer James “Covered Wagon” Cruze.  Austrian Joseph Schildkraut plays an Argentinian café violinist who is pimped out by Myrna Loy to rich women- and ends up saving a suicidal woman by proposing marriage to her. This sounds insane and I am heartbroken this film is among the lost. #lostfilms #povertyrow #OldHollywood

A little thread on THE MONSTER WALKS (1932), a Poverty Row horror film for which I have an odd fondness. It’s directed by Frank Ry. Strayer, whose other horror efforts include CONDEMNED TO LIVE (1935) and the much-better-known THE VAMPIRE BAT (1932).
