Threw laundry in wash, grabbed snack, time for The Dunwich Horror (1970)! 🧵
These Saul Bass-esque opening credits (typeset in what looks awfully like Eurostile) are sick.
Roger Corman? THE MARK OF QUALITY (or at least budget efficiency)

No, that's a different, more entertaining but equally bad movie
this dog better not die
