"Diabloque" may be the best horror movie you've never heard of. The first was released in 1955 and had a great influence on Hitchcock's "Psycho". It was also one of the first movies to ask audiences NOT to reveal the surprise ending.

It was followed by two TV movies. "Diabloque" was remade in 1996 with some big name actors-- Sharon Stone, Kathy Bates and Chazz Plminteri. Although panned by critics and audiences, it's still interesting to contrast it to the first.

It should come as no surprise that I went with French foods this week. Check out Expatica.com here for some of the most popular. They include: coq au vin, cassoulet, bouef bourguignon, chocolate souffle, etc.
