Dr. William Joseph Bryan, Jr. & DEMENTIA 13

The new Blu-ray of Francis Ford Coppola's DEMENTIA 13, just released on September 21, is important from a Cryptoscatological perspective due mainly to the involvement of the notorious Dr. William Joseph Bryan, Jr., a prominent figure in THE ASSASSINATION OF ROBERT F. KENNEDY by William Turner and Jonn Christian. I wrote about Dr. Bryan in the pages of my first book, CRYPTOSCATOLOGY: CONSPIRACY THEORY AS ART FORM. Film historian Tim Lucas reviews this new "Director's Cut" version at VIDEO WATCHBLOG:

"Even with the added material, the film ultimately had to be brought up to an acceptable length by filming a 'DEMENTIA 13 Test' prologue featuring Dr. William Joseph Bryan, Jr., who had been the technical advisor for the hypnosis scenes in the 'Case of M. Valdemar' segment of Corman's TALES OF TERROR (1962)."
