The Pit and the Pendulum
Day: Friday October 23 2020
Time: 8:00 PM Eastern
Channel: TCM
Record number: 4139

Title: The Pit and the Pendulum (1961)
Medium: Movie
Actress: Mary Menzies, Barbara Steele

Description: Vincent Price plays the son of an Inquisition torturer, and appears as the torturer himself in some flashbacks. About 50 minutes in (with commercials), the son is shown as a little boy peering into the dungeon at his unfaithful mother (Menzies), bloody and screaming with her wrists shackled over her head in a quick shot. During the film's climax the son locks his faithless wife (Steele) into a dungeon cage-but she doesn't get rescued. Just before leaving the dungeon, the sister of Price's character (Luana Anders) declares aloud "No one will ever enter this room again." The final frames of the film are of Steele's face staring in mute fear through the bars of the small window in the cage, a white cloth tied over her mouth.

Spirits of the Dead
Day: Friday October 23 2020
Time: 9:45 PM Eastern
Channel: TCM
Record number: 2619

Title: Spirits of the Dead (1968) aka Tales of Mystery aka Tre passi nel delirio
Medium: Movie
Actress: Jane Fonda, Katia Christine

Description: Three Edgar Allen Poe horror stories directed by three different directors: Vadim, Malle and Fellini.

In the first of the stories, "Metzengerstein", Jane is walking in the woods when she steps in a foothold trap. She remains there until rescued by a nearby fellow with a horse.

In the second of the stories, "William Wilson", Katia is tied down on an operating table by a group of disturbed medical students. Every time she tries to yell for help, the ringleader clamps a hand over her mouth. The story is never resolved, as the person relating it gets distracted about other matters.

In the same episode, Brigitte Bardot is whipped on the back, but not tied. In both scenes, the bad guy is Alain Delon.

Promising LMN premiere...

"Five years after sending Louis to jail for the murder of her father and fiance, Diana (Lindy Booth; "The Librarians") returns home to find that he has escaped from prison and has come to confront her. However, the man has not come for revenge, but rather wants her to understand that she put an innocent man away.

Captive in her own home, Diana is resistant. But as time progresses, she starts to question what she saw that night as well as her own testimony. Eventually she even starts to develop feelings for the man. But is he really a cold blooded killer out for revenge? Or did she Diana, really put an innocent man away?"
