On ABC, one that gets played a lot but I always seem to miss: Richard Fleischer's hour-long suspenser Follow Me Quietly (1949), which has this as its plot summary: "A mysterious killer, known only as The Judge, kills anyone he considers worthless." And then on Sunday (Monday morning); Mark Robson's 1943 RKO occult-goth-noir The Seventh Victim (pictured above), which I've seen numerous times and gets creepier each time - it's the kind of film that can seem utterly banal if you aren't on its wavelength... a real one-off classic horror film that ranks alongside Carnival of Souls and Let's Scare Jessica to Death for its inimitable mood of antique creepiness.
