DAILY CALL SHEET: JULY 2, 2024

And Now the Screaming Starts (1973) Once again, Amicus tries once again to out-Hammer Hammer Studios and doesn't quite get there. This time around, a bride-to-be moves into her fiancé's mansion, only to learn too late of the curse that hangs over her potential family. The poster prominently features the “dead hand that crawls”, but most folks just seem to remember the woman who gets assaulted and impregnated by a ghost. Go figure.

TIL: The Gospels note that Mary became pregnant when the Holy Spirit descended upon her. The authors don't go into the scientific details of the process, but give enough info to indicate the conception was of a strictly supernatural character and not a physical union. There was none of that Zeus stuff going on in the Bible.

I HAVE SOME NOTES: More mangled musings on my daily Scripture readings.
