A Bucket of Blood. A Corman Classic.

House on Haunted Hill- Vincent Price & Carol Ohmart are superb together in this film.

No, don't think so.

Feel like that question deserves a better answer though. Sounds like the sort of question a 1940's spy would ask to make sure he was handing his intel over to allied forces.

Doc Faustus 01-10-2010 09:13 AM

I realized right after I posted it that I sound like either a spy or a schizophrenic.

Dracula; Prince of Darkness. Being Hammer, and Dracula, and old, it was inevitably a little corny and hampered by the fact that Christoper Lee refused to speak at any point in the movie but I'm a sucker for that kind of thing.

Plus, it had Andrew Keir in it, who I regard as a bit of a legend.

Watched that myself last night, decent hammer film but not really one of my favourites. Keir is entertaining though, some great scenes.

Also watched:
The Devil Rides Out: Nice to see Lee playing the good guy for a change.
The Nanny:Some great acting in this, Bette Davis is great but the lad playing Joey steals every scene he's in. Brilliant peformance from him.

Isle of the Dead with Karloff.

Straker 01-11-2010 03:15 PM

Finished working my way through a DvD boxed set of Hammer films I picked up last week with:

Frankenstein Created Woman
&
Quatermass and the Pit

Haven't seen either in years, both are quality. :cool:

AKP 01-11-2010 04:46 PM

I'm not so bothered about Frankenstein Created Woman but Quatermass and the Pit is one of my three favourite horror films of all time. :)

The Gorgon

Medusa's sister giving Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing some grief.

Fun watch, especially Lee's performance as a second rate Sherlock Holmes.

Amoto 01-13-2010 11:39 AM

let see classic horror films last one I seen... thats a tough one I have seen a dozen classics like yesterday, heres a couple, night of the living dead, Revolt of the zombies, I think thats what it is called, bluebeard, and of course house on haunted hill.

FreddyMyers 01-15-2010 11:05 AM

In a B & W mood i watched the Innocents which was based on the book Turn of the Screw by Henry James. Great movie with sururb acting and great atmosphere. I also watched Freaks which is just disturbing on its own level.

The Old Dark House with Karloff.

Straker 01-21-2010 05:23 PM

The Ghoul
&
The Corpse Vanishes

Don't really watch much pre 50's horror, to be honest, thought both were pretty good though.

Metropolis (1927)

The most amazing masterpiece from Silent era & the granddaddy of all sci-fi films. The content, visuals & the effects blew me away as a film of 20's. A magnificent experience.

One of the greatest films ever! Unbelievable what they managed to pull off in that film.

Plan 9 From Outer Space.

Doc Faustus 01-27-2010 09:39 PM

Never seen that one. It sucks that the William Castle boxset is sell-a-kidney expensive, though. I'm sure he's laughing from the grave at everyone who shelled out the seventy someodd bucks.

neverending 01-27-2010 09:47 PM

I remember loving it when I saw it as a kid. Haven't seen it since.

Doc Faustus 01-27-2010 10:14 PM

The short story's really good. It's in that really good Random House antho from the seventies.

Feeling bit lucky to have the box set now in my collection as I got it last month from a cousin of mine from US as a gift (along with the Cold Prey DVD).:)

You are extremely lucky. Your cousin is awesome and has good taste.

Last classic horror I watched was The Crawling Eye. It's one of the movies that often ends up in my going to bed rotation.

Corridors of Blood (1958)

http://img710.imageshack.us/img710/3...orsofblood.jpg

why the title "Corridors of Blood"? Having Karloff on the lead & a title like that...clearly gives a strong vibe about a bloody suspenseful-chilling horror experience waiting for the fans. While it's not entirely horror but a very decent medical thriller cum drama that had one of the rare occasions of pairing 2 Horror Movie Legend...Karloff & Lee together! Although doesn't last long but it's undoubtedly a great treat for any classic horror lover. Overall a pretty good film & I quite liked it except the title which could be simple & meaningful...for example The Pain & The Knife!:D
