It is a tradition for me to watch the film "The Message" by Moustapha Akkad every Ramadan every year. Released in 1976, this film is one of the best epic and adventure films and also one of the best films about Islam. I love its beautiful cinematography and epic storytelling.

Yoshiaki Kawajiri's 1993 anime Ninja Scroll combines action, adventure, swordplay, fantasy, horror, outrageous imagery and perverse eroticism. Ninjas battling demons! A lady ninja whose body kills any man who sleeps with her! A must-see movie.

Lake of Dracula (1971), 2nd film in the Bloodthirsty Trilogy, starts with a dream. Then the dream events seem to really happen. And opening coffins is always a bad idea. There are vampires, and Dracula is involved in directly. Not a bad movie.

Antonio Margheriti’s Web of the Spider is a colour remake of his excellent 1964 Castle of Blood. With Klaus Kinski as Edgar Allan Poe! A good slightly offbeat gothic horror film featuring ghosts (sort of) and a nice aesthetic. Cool ending.

This will upset Fulci fans but I really disliked his 1972 giallo Don’t Torture a Duckling (1972). And in general I'm a major Fulci fan. The right ingredients and a fine cast. Florinda Bolkan is excellent. It just didn't come together for me.

The fine 1972 giallo So Sweet, So Dead begins with a very dead naked girl. Cop Farley Granger's problem is the victim was a general's wife so he has to tread carefully. More murders follow among the decadent rich. The ending packs a real punch.
