Rewatched on DCP in a theater last night. Dennis Weaver's lunatic "night man" is really a marvel, and his interactions with the hoodlums at the motel have a big proto-Lynch vibe.Always forget that Heston's primary cop ally (Schwartz) is played by Mort Mills, who was the cop with the dark shades in Psycho.

rewatching on TV right now and the first appearance of the "night man" actually took my mind straight to norman bates so i'm enjoying morbs's two sentences here^^^, miss you dude
i looked up mercedes mccambridge and discovered that when she played opposite joan crawford in johnny guitar, she ended up calling her a "mean, tipsy, powerful, rotten-egg lady"
