The Black Cat has to be numero uno, even in Karloff's own list. Then there's The Mummy, which I absolutely loved.
There were two versions of Karloff's The Raven. One was in the 30s, other the multi-starrer in early 60s...I m assuming more people here have seen the 60s one, not many have seen the 30s version.

That said, the 60's version is a riot. Once I got over the fact that it wasnt a horror movie like I was expecting, I really enjoyed it. Peter Lorre and Vincent Price were perfect together.

I haven't watched it in years, but from what I recall it was quite entertaining, with Karloff and Lugosi playing off one another very well.

The two movies are completely different. The Corman Raven isn't a remake of the old Universal one. Karloff just happens to have been in two good movies with the same title. In regards to Mask of Fu Manchu, it was sadly his only portrayal of the character. The commentary says Warner Oland was in a few Fu Manchu movies.

Man, everybody's already named my favorite Karloff films... except one. How the Grinch Stole Christmas! And no I'm not being a smart ass. The 30's Raven is easy to find (you're of course talking about Carl Laemmle's with Lugosi and Karloff?) it's included in this DVD set for under $20.00.

The 30s Raven is available in the Bela Lugosi collection...which has other movies in which Lugosi and Karloff acted together...namely, the Black Cat, Black Friday & The Invisible Ray. You can check it here, Vamp... http://www.amazon.com/Lugosi-Collect...3340107&sr=8-7
