Since it is not yet available on DVD (WTF!?!) be sure not to miss the side-splitting bad movie classic, The Oscar (1966) which airs on Turner Classic Movies Tuesday Dec. 30th. Click here for the complete CCT review.
If you’re already sick of jingle bells and good will towards men, then check out TCM Underground late night Friday for Tower of Evil (1972) and The Haunted House of Horror (1969).
What are we thankful for here at CCT? We’re thankful for the fact that TCM will be running a Bette vs. Joan marathon the day after Thanksgiving.

Be sure not to miss the nuthouse classic The Cobweb (1955). On Tuesday the 12th, Kim Novak gets her turn in the spotlight.
