Le Musée des Obsédés: L'erotisme dans les films d'epouvante ♀

Hors-Série edition of Belgian magazine CINE REVUE, Dossier 75, "L'erotisme dans les films d'epouvante," released in Spring 1975.
Filled with amazing images, some full page while also featuring several colour folds, focusing on nudity and eroticism in horror cinema, this one totally blew me away as a kid in the early 1980s discovering horror movies and... ahem, naked girls! Spread across several evocative chapters like 'Les Vamps de L'Effroi, 'L'Ecran des Maniaques, 'Frankenstein et le beau sexe,' 'Les Monstres Amoureux, 'Le Charme des Vampires, and 'La Volupté de la Mort,' the images are a treasure trove of discoveries.

From the Archives of Vintage Television: Night Gallery - Lindemann's Catch (1972)

Tonight’s focus is on ‘Lindemann’s Catch,’ the opening segment of Night Gallery’s 16th episode from season 2. Night Gallery is an American anthology series that aired on NBC from 1969 to 1973, featuring stories of horror and the macabre, introduced by Twilight Zone’s Rod Serling, who was also a major script contributor.
Set in a small, 19th century New England fishing village. One fogshrouded evening, Captain Hendrick Lindemann (Stuart Whitman), a cold-hearted and weary fisherman enters the wharfside fisherman’s tavern and soon gets into a row with Abner Suggs (Harry Townes), scrounging among the villagers for a bit of spare coin in exchange for a fortune reading. After slugging the harmless old man, Lindemann return to his boat and finds his crew huddled around their mysterious catch. Tangled in their nets, is a living mermaid (lovely Annabelle Garth).
