I can't quite put my finger on how gory seventies stories lack the charm and quaintness of gory fifties stories. There's just something acrid about them.
It's the grimy underbelly of 70's sensibilites... wonderfully permeates drive-in cinema (and later punk rock music) with a deliciously foul, offensive taste.
It was about the first 20 issues of Creepy and Eerie that sealed me into horror comics.
