Hey there, groovy people! Last time I posted one of these updates about viewership milestones, I offered my hope that readers had not grown bored with reports of this nature. And while I still hope that’s true, the process of watching the numbers increase over time has not lost its novelty for me, hence this message of gratitude for everyone out there diggin’ on the signals I’m sendin’. Of late, I’ve taken some time to revisit movies that were reviewed for this blog years ago as a means of reconnecting with reasons why the cinema of the ’70s is so endlessly fascinating. Whether I’m taking a fresh look at a stone classic (how’s it hangin’, The Exorcist), a minor hit from back in the day (lay it on me, Jesus Christ Superstar), or a cult favorite (gimme five, Time After Time), it’s been a kick to remind myself of the wonders associated with the New Hollywood era. Notwithstanding the much-discussed consideration of how tricky it is to lay my retinas on ’70s movies I haven’t yet reviewed, I feel like I’ve got a fresh tank of gas in the engine for the next leg of this trippiest of trips. So hang loose, because there’s more to come—and, as always, hope endures that I’ll discover some masterpiece that’s been unfairly overlooked since the ’70s. Until next time, thanks for reading, and keep on keepin’ on!

Congrats Peter!
There are a number of unreviewed 70s titles that I have sent to Peter over the last year. With each example, I send an ad to prove it received a theatrical release in the U.S. I know he'll succumb to temptation and take the time to post a review. Anticipation....it's making me wait.
This site is the greatest ever!
Great resource. I would like to include 68 and 69 films that were made with the advent of the ratings system
Outstanding accomplishment! Love your site, refer to it almost daily. Here's to 7.5 million more!
Super!
How about Lisa and the Devil/The House of Exorcism?
