And 1966- the founding of the Church of Satan- harkens back to the quote from Rosemary's Baby, where the man toasts to 1966- year one. |

But as far as 666 goes, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Number_of_the_Beast The association with 666 and the Christian antichrist really has more to do Hollywood than any actual black magical practices. And indeed, 1966 was A.S. Year One. |
And your point is?
I thought you were trying to find out which film had the first reference to 666. |

I would agree that the number has no real magical significance, but it seems to have been generally viewed as bad luck long before 1976, and I'm interested in any cinematic connection. (What you said about the Kenneth Anger film was interesting, and I thank you--but I have no way to research that further.) There's suppose to be a gypsy scam involving 666, and gypsies were stereotyped in a number of old horror films. Could there be anything there? I even remember an old WWII era movie short having to do with the devil and Hitler (the devil was played by a fairly prominent actor, was waiting for Hitler, and was a little upset at the way he was running the war "up there"), but I don't think there was any reference to this "unholy" number. Anyway, I do appreciate all comments here. Thank you. |
