SCARY MONSTERS #132: SINISTER SPINSTERS & WICKED WIDOWS

Just in time to chill our bones for the Halloween season, Scary Monsters #132 serves a special, "Sinister Spinsters and Wicked Widows" issue; and Scott Jackson's wraparound cover does a crafty job capturing the hag-ridden terrain.

And as is only right and decent, their top-tier stars take their deserved bows: Betty Davis, Joan Crawford, Shelley Winters, Debbie Reynolds, Ruth Gordon, Gale Sandergaard, Martina Hunt, Elizabeth Montgomery, Elizabeth Taylor, Geraldine Page, Gloria Swanson, Olivia de Havilland ... and Deborah Kerr. 

There's even a loving article on eminent, character actress, Louise Emmons, and a section on movie witches, spotlighting their revered thespians, Margaret Hamilton, Mila Kunis, Jessica Walter, Meg Foster, Elizabeth Hurley, Svetlana Khodchenkova and Angelina Jolie. 

For a wee, additional diversion, Issue #132 shares some catchy kaiju, a movie-theater historical-pictorial, expressionistic horror and Halloween gimmicks, costumes and customs.
