A Bucket of Blood. A Corman Classic.
|
House on Haunted Hill- Vincent Price & Carol Ohmart are superb together in this film.
|
Quote:
My personal favorite Vincent Price movie. |
Does Nora wear white boots?

Quote:
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. |
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. |
Quote:
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.
|
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: |
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. |
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.
|
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 Mad Monster (1942)
>>: C+ |
The Old Dark House with Karloff.
|
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. >>: A |
One of the greatest films ever! Unbelievable what they managed to pull off in that film.
|
White Zombie.
|
Last classic Horror movies I watched recently
The night of the werewolf (1980)
Frankenstein must be destroyed The wolfman (Lon Chaney Jr) and last but not least... Body snatcher (boris karloff and Bela Lugosi!) |
|
The Mad Ghoul.
|
Plan 9 From Outer Space.
|
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.
|
I remember loving it when I saw it as a kid. Haven't seen it since.
|
The short story's really good. It's in that really good Random House antho from the seventies.

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. |
The Man Who Laughs.
|
That's one of my favorites.
|
Scream of Fear
|
Maniac (1934)
http://content8.flixster.com/movie/3...489198_pro.jpg Insanely amusing & hilarious. Liked it. >>: B |
I love that movie! It's just insane.
|
Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde.

Quote:
I show that movie to everyone I possibly can. |
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 >>: B+ |
