I Eat Movies #6: ¡Que Linda! - The Dead Don't Die (1975) / Mr. Majestyk (1974)

Unsurprisingly still craving more cinema, cohosts Mike and Dino get their fill by spotlighting the under-appreciated Argentinian actress who carved out a career entirely on her terms. In a helping of firsts, I Eat Movies #6: ¡Que Linda! finds the Fantasy Island loving duo tackling their first TV movie and horror effort in The Dead Don't Die (1975). Airing originally as part of NBC's World Premiere Movie, George Hamilton stars in this small screen noir with supernatural turns and voodoo twists where the late, great Linda Cristal makes a most lasting and fiery impression, literally. Next up, the story of a man and his melons is enthusiastically examined in the Charles Bronson starrer Mr. Majestyk (1974). Costarring Cristal in a scene-stealing performance as a migrant worker who can handle herself and tear Bronson's machismoness down at the drop of a hat, Mike makes yet another bold claim that he's certain he's right on while, Dino dishes the skinny on Cristal's truly last film role that most apparently want to pretend never happened. All this and more is covered as we salute the spunky Golden Globe recipient in I Eat Movies #6: ¡Que Linda! - The Dead Don't Die (1975) / Mr. Majestyk (1974)!
