Though this may not regard as one of Bava's most recognized works but I still loved this one for its fitting & creepy Gothic tone, an utterly gorgeous-hot Daliah Lavi and of course, the young 'sadistic' Christopher Lee...a killer combination, IMO!:cool:

Alfred Hitchcock's "The Lodger." I actually never knew his work went all the way back to the silent era. Not bad. It kept my attention, but not my favorite.
I also watched Frenzy and Rope. Both awesome. (Edit) Oh yeah, I also watched Marnie. Eh. There was a lot about it I liked, but the plainly-spoken psychology mumbo jumbo bothered me. I also didn't really buy the ending. Entertaining though. IMO, not quite the underrated gem that some purport it to be. Last edited by Giganticface; 10-10-2013 at 12:06 AM. |

Just finished watching The Horror Of Dracula on TCM. I still like everything about that movie. I especially love the music. The "chase" music at the end when they're running into the Castle is great and the ominous theme at the very beginning during the credits.

Helps when you have 2 days' holidays on the trot. Great time to rewatch those favorites from the early years. |

Naked Angels (1969)
Disjointed and confusing 60's biker flick - a lot stranger than the usual flicks from Corman's Angel film. Still enjoyed the sounds and endless zooming in and out of guys riding bikes. Penelope Spheeris plays one of the Mamas. |

Watched a little bit of The Wolf Man while I ate my lunch.

I too just watched Horror of Dracula thanks to TCM On Demand. I like it better (appreciate it more?) than I did the first time around 14 years ago.

Phantom of the Opera (1943)
A lesser-known production by Universal (at least relative to Dracula, Creature from the Black Lagoon, Frankenstein, and other heavy-hitters) but still disturbing and terrifying, in part because it is realistic. A disgruntled composer flees to the sewers beneath the Paris opera house and stalks a young woman. I will now forever pass a manhole cover and wonder, perhaps...? |
