If there’s one character name that doesn’t fit Karloff, it’s “Jim”

It's Saturday night and MeTV’s notorious horror host #Svengoolie, who slays his viewers with one-liners, is presenting a movie about a notorious strangler who slays his victims one-handed
#TheHauntedStrangler

The tagline at the top of the poster for The Haunted Strangler (1958) boasts "KING OF THE MONSTERS!" which counts as false advertising, since Godzilla isn’t featured in any way; instead we get Karloff's greyish-green face squinting while keeping one eye open and biting his lower lip in a weird expression one might make if struck in the crotch with a Wiffle bat; the line before the title reads, "Their wild beauty marked them for death by..." next to a busty woman in red looking scared at an approaching shadowy hand; then there's an inset image of guards bringing a struggling man to a noose before a crowd, and Karloff kneeling in a graveyard near what seems to be a human spine with curved ribs still attached

Wait, is he Tennant?

So was he possessed by Styles? Who would have been innocent and therefore not likely to strangle? Or Tennant, who is possibly still alive and not able to possess anyone?

Is there ever going to be any strangling in your strangler movie?

So now he has become The Phantom of the Can Can?

This looks like a job for Emily Prentiss and the BAU.

What sort of a girl was Martha Stewart? The insider trading kind of girl.

Tonight on it’s because regular stranglers just aren’t scary enough.
