SCREAM OF FEAR. This is the fourth movie in the "Hammer Films: Icons Of Horror" collection. The other three are THE CURSE OF THE MUMMY'S TOMB; THE TWO FACES OF DR. JEKYLL; THE GORGON.
I enjoyed them all but the surprise of the bunch was SCREAM OF FEAR. More in the Hitchcockian vein than supernatural horror, this film blithely let you think you knew where it was going then smashed your knees while you were eyeing the pretty sky. Worthwhile. |
"The Unholy Three" (1930)
- Lon Chaney Chaney's only sound picture. Not his best. but interesting to watch. |
The Girl Who Knew Too Much (1963)
Simply beautiful! In the dvd extra features there was the interview with John Saxon "Remembering The Girl" where he talked about his early career at the studios and how he get the job, experience with Bava...the golden memories of those days..I liked that part mostly. >>: B+ |
"Horror Of Dracula" (1958)
The best Dracula movie ever. |

I Bury the Living (1958)
http://monsterhunter.coldfusionvideo...ivingCover.jpg Saw it day before yesterday on youtube (divided into 8 parts!)...for an important research work!;) . Loved it.:) >>: B+ |
The Tingler (1959)
Ladies & Gentlemen, Please do not Panic, but Scream! Scream for your life!...whoever saw this movie in the theater surely have an experience of their lifetime that holds an enormous cinematic pleasure to always remember. I wish I was there to see the facial expression and behavior of the real audiences when Dr. Warren telling them in the dark to scream in the movie theater to save their lives. I have read in some reviews that they even placed a device, the "Percepto", installed inside the cinema armchairs for vibration so that, when the audience shouts during the movie, they felt a shock! Wow! The film contains a beautiful, intelligent & original storyline and maintains a continuously tense atmosphere where Vincent Price's flawless & lovely performance added the value that made it an instant cult classic! [Thanks to AlwaysClumsy...the person who uploaded it on youtube. :)] >>: A |
Attack of the Giant Leeches was on last night. The original 1950's one. That was followed up by a 30 minute television episode of something called "The Veil" with Boris Karloff. Apparenlty he did 10 episodes of this show in 1958 and it never aired on tv. Too bad, it's better than the zone.

The Devil Rides Out
A Hammer great |
I just picked up a 20 movie pack titled Chilling for $6.99 at Shopko!! It features Jack Nicholson in The Terror '63, Vincent price in The Man on Earth , James Earl Jones in Blood Tide, and of course 17 more. Super awesome cheep find, it even has House on Haunted Hill '59, Little Shop of Horrors with Jack Nicholson '60 and my all time fav Night of the Living Dead.
Last night I watched The Terror, maybe it was good in the sixties, but I found it pretty dull and talked through the whole thing. It was about a 19th century military officer chasing around a sexy ghost. Decent plot, I may even give it another chance if my cable ever gets shut off. |
Son Of Frankenstein
classic |

"Dracula, Prince Of Darkness" (1966)
-Christopher Lee I've always liked this movie, even though I find it funny that Lee has no dialog. Like most of the Hammer Films, this movie is full of atmosphere, great costumes and sets. |
"Curse Of The Undead" (1959)
- Micheal Pate Plot Synopsis: IMDB The cinema's first vampire Western! Young women in a small Western town are dying one by one of an unknown malady involving massive blood loss. The Carter family's ranch is being terrorized by ruthless land baron Buffer. And a mysterious black-clad gunfighter with an aversion to sunlight has just arrived in town Phantom's Review: I've always been a fan of both westerns and horror movies, (especially the classic black and white movies)and on those rare occasions that someone tries to combine the two always interests me. While this is basically a standard "B" movie. It has some very nice performances from the actors and it maintains, both, a great horror atmosphere (with some cool spooky music)and some classic western action. If you don't take it to seriously, this is a fun movie. |

Little Shop of Horrors 1960
Jack Nicholson cameo was sweet, otherwise the film was so so. 5/10 The Last Man on Earth 1960 Vincent Price could take Will S. in a fight any day. A true classic-could've used a better ending-I can see why it's been remade so many times. 8/10 House on Haunted Hill 1959 V.P. is the man! I only wish it were longer. 9/10 |
Word! Vincent Price kicks ass in all his movies.

For the record, the film was not remade; all three of the I Am Legend films that I know of are based upon the same novel by Richard Matheson. Anyway, the last classic horror film I watched was The Black Cat for about the gazillionth time. Another picture that deserves much more appraise than it currently receives, and remains among my favorite films. "Did you hear that, Vitus? 'The phone is dead.' Even the phone is dead." |
'The body snatcher'
My all time favourite Boris Karloff movie, |
The Plague of the Zombies
Brilliant film, one Hammers finest |
Night of the Living Dead (1968) - 10/10.
George A. Romero kicks ass. |
Frankenstein Created Woman
|
"The Black Scorpion"
|
the wasp woman
horrors of the black museum |
the st. valentine's day massacre
|
Classic horror movie would probably be "Nosferatu".
I bought it for one dollar on DVD. :) |

Frankenstein (1931)
Just finished reading the original novel, so I wanted to give this another watch. There really isn't much resemblance to the source material (at all) but it's hard to deny that both works are masterpieces of their respective mediums. Karloff's turn as the Monster has to be one of the all-time greatest cinematic performances. |
