Paul recently announced that Pelts was going to be made by Dario Argento for the Masters of Horror series - hour-long movies based on short works of horror. The brain-child of Mick Garris includes many directors including John Carpenter, Don Coscarelli, Stuart Gordon, etc.
Being a John Carpenter fan, I had been curious of a new movie that I had seen at Best Buy called Cigarette Burns. It finally came around in my Netflix queue, and I liked this movie a lot.
Cigarette burns is about a movie buff who finds rare films for people to earn extra money (in this case to pay off a debt). He gets enlisted to find a film which causes the audience to react violently into murderous rages.
I thought this was very well made and well acted. A bit gory.
I'm looking forward to Incident On and Off a Mountain Road and Dreams in the Witch House ...... and, of course, PELTS.

The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents. ... The piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality, and of our frightful position therein, that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the light into the peace and safety of a new dark age.

Was that published in one of the late-'60's Ballentine books? THE DREAM-QUEST OF UNKNOWN KADDATH, mebbe?

It was definitely in a 70's Ballantine edition of ATMOM & Others (can't remember the exact title). I have an 80's edition of Kaddath and it's not in there.

Yeah, that sounds right. I've never understood what generated the Lovecraft mini-craze of the late 60's--early 70's. Part of the same period's occult revival, maybe? With a dash of the Tolkien boom thrown in?

"Pelts" will appear sometime during the second season of MoH, which begins this October (if they stick to last years pattern, it would be the Friday before Halloween) and runs through early February. According to IMDB, it's supposed to be the second episode shown, if that's accurate then it would be on Friday, November 3rd.
Thanks for the info.
