classics?

Poor Boris and Bela might have turned in their graves. :rolleyes:
I agree. The real classic are from the 1960 back ( even in the silents).

The best classic stars were Bela Lugosi, Boris Karloff, both Lon Chaney Senior and Lon Chaney, Junior, Peter Lorre,Peter Cushing, Christopher Lee, Ingrid Pitt and Vincent Price to name a few.

Though some of the earlier sound films may seem quite hammy, they are still superior to some of the trash being made today.

However, I am not saying all modern horror films are trash. There are many, many real quality films still being made after the 1960's like The Howling, The Exorcist, Silent Hill, The Omen, The Gathering, The Skeletal Key, Sleepy Hollow, House On Haunted Hill( new version), The Gathering, The Others, The Entity, Poltergeist, Arachnaphobia, Jeepers Creepers and Species.

I have never seen The Hills have Eyes. I think I will treat myself today to that film along with a few beers!
