Planet of Vampires

Space travelers clad in black leather from head to foot, swirling clouds of mist, red and green lights everywhere, vintage electronic score... Mario Bava's Planet of Vampires is a fetishistic acid trip of a movie... love it.

The Black Room is definally one of Karloffs greatest performances - the film doesn't seem to get as much credit as it should...

I might watch a few classics tonight for Halloween - I was thinking of THE MAZE and 1 or 2 others..

Corny, over the top and a hell of a lot of fun to watch.

Thumbs up Halloween Special: Karloff-Lugosi Double Bill..!!

The Invisible Ray (1936)

The lines are pretty interesting when Dr. Rukh (Karloff) & Dr. Benet (Lugosi) first met in this film...:cool:

Karloff: "....We meet at last!"
Lugosi: "But we already know each other."
Karloff: "True.
You come to see me failed; but you would be disappointed!"


Lugosi: "I have never seen eye to eye."
Karloff: "That's because I have always look ... years ahead of your theories!"

>>: B+

The Raven (1935)

Lugosi was brilliant as Dr. Vollin! His 2nd best performance after Dracula...as I have seen so far.

>>: A

"Curse Of The Undead" (1959)

A Halloween staple at my house. The movies first vampire western. Low budget but made with some good atmosphere and fun western action.


"Night Of The Living Dead" (1968)

The original, the classic and still the best damn zombie movie ever made.


"Psycho"

Hitchcock at his best. The greatest thriller ever made.

A fine Halloween triple feature.

Not a great movie, but a solid film.

Caught Night of the Living Dead last night during the all night running. Actually 1 and 1/2 times. Gotta agree with Phantomstranger on this one. The best zombie movie ever made. Before it came back on after the commerical they had inserts from a Romero interview. He was talking about how the film was precived as burtal when it came out. Although this is probley in the top 5 movies Ive seen the most, Id never thought about that. Id never thought of any classic horror as gory but I guess in 68 it was pretty burtal.
