I don't know if you would consider this classic but for me it is ...
Psycho [1960] |
It is specifically a classic- as defined in the description of this forum, which can be seen by looking at the forum index.

Quatermass and the Pit (preferred part 2)
The Black Cat (The basil rathbone/Bela version) not as good as the karloff version wich also stars Lugosi but definetly better then Fulci's. |
Holy blast from the past Batman!
Welcome back, KK13. :cool: |
The Body Snatcher.
Always good to catch this one on late night TV. |
The Frankenstein ( The black and white version) I don't know if that one has a special name
|
War of the Colossal Beast.
Pretty average collaboration between Bert Gordon and Sam Arkoff. Apart from being a sequel, and having some larger-than-life effects, there wasn't much to look into. Average entertainer. |

This was the first sci-fi/horror film I ever saw and that horrible face scared me! |
"The Giant Claw" (1957)
Synopsis: IMDB When electronics engineer Mitch MacAfee spots a UFO as "big as a battleship," from his plane, the Air Force scrambles planes to investigate. However, nothing shows up on radar, and one of the jets is lost during the action. MacAfee is regarded as a dangerous crackpot until other incidents and disappearances convince the authorities that the threat is real. Some believe it is a French-Canadian folk legend come to life, but it turns out to be an extraterrestrial giant bird composed of anti-matter whose disregard for human life and architecture threatens the world. Phantom's review: This is the Cadillac of schlock. Hysterically funny looking monster,( looks like a cross between a turkey buzzard and a muppett.) Over the top acting and a goofy plot. I love it. |
The last Classic Horror you watched?
The last classic Horror I watched was "The Undying Monster"...Phantomstranger.....I also recently watched "The Giant Claw"What a funny flick...Can you believe I was up until 5:00 A.m. watching it...Your comment s right on about the bird being a cross between a turkey buzzard & muppet, I'm still chuckling...Didn't seem so funny when I was a kid but when I saw it the other night I laughed out loud...

Diary of a Madman
Some rather pedestrian and stagey direction by Reginald LeBorg, but a fine performance, as always, by Vincent Price. |

Last Man on Earth

I couldn't sleep last night and was flipping through the cable channels. I came accross a public access channel that was showing The Giant Gila Monster. That film is mesmerizing. Every time I see it I have to stop and watch it. The old drunk guy. The awful musical numbers. Afterwards I was reading about it on IMDB and apparently the Giant Gila Monster wasn't even a gila monster! It was a red banded lizard. Perfect.
|
The Oblong Box (I think this was still '60s might have been '70) ~ I enjoyed it more this time, I think. The first time I watched it, I was just expecting something....different....;)
|
Yeah AIP will suprise the shit out of ya. I think most of there films are enjoyed more upon second viewing.

psycho was the last.
I feel like watching the body snatcher I haven't watched it in a long time. |
Revolt of the Zombies
Yes, Victor Halperin made ANOTHER zombie movie, utilising many of the same themes- lust for power, unrequited love- only this one doesn't have any of the atmosphere, eerieness or surreal imagery of White Zombie- not to mention no Lugosi either. |
