One of the greatest horror producers of all time, producing such films as Cat People, Curse of the Cat People, I Walked with a Zombie, Body Snatcher, The Haunting, Curse/Night of the Demon, etc.
Currently reading a biography of him called Fearing The Dark and has been a great read. Really great, highly recommended for those who are fans of him and of his movies. Lewton had a wonderful style and believed the scariest horror and terror were those that were in the mind and wasn't seen, unlike the Universal Pictures which glorified in showing their monsters, etc.
Are there any fans of this guy's movies? What do you think in general?
