Peter Bogdanovich's Targets, starring the great Boris Karloff.

Not a movie but anybody into podcast and The Universal Horror movies have got to give this one a listen......7 hours long and not a boring moment in the whole damn thing.

Night of the Living Dead
I seen part of this when I was in college, but never sat down to watch the whole thing. Again not a zombie fan, but I can't pass up a vintage classic. It sure doesn't build up much suspense, jumping to the invasion almost immediately. At least I can't say it didn't hold my attention. Did not care for it personally, but hey, I can say watched it. |

Cat People (1942)
7/10 Attractive & effective cinematography & directing, building mood, suspense & dread. Although I did find the characters & story lacking sufficient depth. There was a point to deepen characters & story, but it went repetitious instead. For me, I'm a bit fatigued with the cliche beautiful, depressed, moody, fatalistic, dangerous, young female love interest for whom the male lead must save, reach, cure & find a way to love. It's been done so many times, even by 1942. |

Yes! You made my morning with this post. |
Watching The Body Snatcher on Boris Karloffs birthday.
|
::wink::
How awesome was it for them to keep mentioning their love of horror movies, and the girl's love for the wolfman. And Lon's character is just 'There's a full moon tonight'. I. DIED. ::big grin:: Quote:

HOUSE OF DRACULA (1945). So silly , but so much fun with John Carradine playing a really good Dracula, although it would behoove him to wear a wristwatch (same thing in HOUSE OF FRANKENSTEIN as well!). ***

MeTV has it though, so I'll just have to set a tape for it and catch it on there sometime. Quote:

FRANKENSTEIN (1931). Still a wonderful film with ace performances by Boris, Colin and Dwight. Really noticed for the first time how frenetic it is compared to a lot of films of the time (especially THE MUMMY and DRACULA)-it all but bounces all over the place.
The Christmas of 1972, my best friend's Grandmother came to visit and told me how she had seen this in the theaters and "...I almost ran out of the theater when that guy turned around!"::big grin::. ****1/2 |

Mary Poppins. Great!
|
FACE AT THE WINDOW (1936). Pretty battered VHS copy of this, but good little flick with an almost over the top turn by Tod Slaughter who has a cool evil laugh! ***
|
THE MONSTER AND THE GIRL (1941). Good little flick from Paramount that almost plays like a film noir before getting to the spooky stuff. Pretty ballsy plot line as well for the time period...surprised it got past the Hays Office. ***
|
Freaks-1932. Never gets old.
|
Le Manoir Du Diable, which is on Youtube. It was the first. I hadn't seen it in years.
|
Werewolf of London
classic ::love:: |
Quote:
Rosemary's Baby. Another classic! |
Psycho. Way better than I thought it would be. I'd give it 5/5.
|
Right now I am watching the 1931 Dracula in the background as I work.
|
Just watched Auguste & Louis Lumiere Le Squelette Joyeux. Nice little clip from 1896.

THE MAD GHOUL (1943). Enjoyable Universal with George Zucco awesome as always trying to get his filthy mitts on his students hot girlfriend (the lovely Evelyn Ankers) by subjecting him to a deadly gas. Nice turn also by Robert Armstrong (KING KONG). ***
|
|
RETURN OF THE APE MAN (1944). Bela Lugosi and John Carradine travel to the Arctic to thaw out a caveman for scientific research and the usual SNAFUS begin to occur. Typical Monogram nonsense....they really don't make films like this anymore and mores the pity. ***

Village Of The Damned (1960)
