House of Wax- Haven't seen

Curse of Frankenstein- 2

The Blob-2

I will mention, while I do not consider the latter two films scary, I do consider them very good. The Blob is an excellent film with Mcqueen. One of my favorite sci-fi films (that also fall under horror) from the 50s. Curse of Frankenstein I regard as a masterpiece. In my opinion, it is the best Hammer film ever made. There are many great questions asked here and it is interesting to see the evolving relationship between Paul and Frankenstein. Cushing and Lee both delivered excellent performances, but I think Cushing really shines in this one. I would actually put this in my top 20 horror movies of all-time. Anyway, both these films (but especially Curse of Frankenstein) are great films, even if not scary, in my opinion.

Scare-O-Meter scores (out of 5)

House of Wax (based on 5 ratings) - 2.7
Curse of Frankenstein (based on 7 ratings) - 2.1
The Blob (based on 7 ratings) - 1.8

All 3 50s masterpieces disappoint in the rankings, with Price's suspenseful film topping the trio.

All 3 films are added to the opening post.

The Wolf Man - 2.5

I've seen both Cat People and Body Snatchers; but I really can't recollect to hone in on their scary factor, it's been too long since I've seen them.
