Last Man on Earth

Watched The Mummy (1932) and the creature from the black lagoon last night. Both bona fide classics.

I must say old Universal horrors are my weakness.

What a great day it was:

"The Haunting" (1963)- one of the best ghost movies ever made
"The Creature From The Black Lagoon"- A Universal classic
"King Kong" (1933)- The first and still the best
"A Nightmare On Elm Street"- the original and the best in the franchise

Watched two 40's Zombie movies on AMC Fri night, have to look to see what they were called...one was I walked with a Zombie I believe...they were really bad, even for BnW classics...seen the Omen, The Exorcist, Halloween 1, Nightmate on Plum Street 1, and all the Frankenstein, Dracula, Wolfman Bnw's so far, and a host of new ones, this has been one of the best viewing seasons for us ever :confused:

PhilnEdee 10-29-2006 10:04 AM

Crap, I forgot the original Thing and original House of Wax we scored Friday night :p

Eesh. I love I Walked With a Zombie!

Lewton classic, man. Lewton classic.

Care to elaborate? Maybe it needs a second viewing.

Night Of The Living Dead.

neverending 10-29-2006 05:16 PM

I have to agree with Alky on I Walked With a Zombie. Loads of atmosphere & menace.

I saw NOTLD on cable last night too. great to see it again. Each time I see it I marvel at the script. It really is well written, with lots of scenes that have literary merit to them. Comparing it to a Stephen King piece of junk I saw recently, NOTLD stand heads above the hack job a lot of King's later movies are. IMO <--- I said in my opinion, okay? ..lol..

There's 2-3 colour movies mixed in, but it's mostly all black and white movies. There's some crap in it of course, but there are enough good movies to make it worth alot more than what they're charging.

One of my all-time favorite movies, let alone horror.

The Haunting is one of the only movies that can actually chill me right down to the bone.

The performances...the directing...the cinematography...the set design...
beautiful, every bit of it.

Seriously, it's unbelieveable. Robert Wise had this gift.


The "boom boom" scene is so effective, yet so simple. The terror is relentless.

phantomstranger 11-07-2006 12:29 PM

"The Haunting" is simply the greatest ghost movie ever.

Not to mention his ability to handle EVERY genre

he did 2 musicals...and they're among best musicals caught on film The SOund of Music and West Side Story

he did 3 SciFi, The Day the Earth Stood Still, The Andromeda Strain and Star Trek: the Motion Picture

war movie? The Sand Pebbles, Run Silent, Run Deep

period epic? Helen of Troy

Sports Movie? Someone Up There Likes Me

more horror? Curse of the Cat People, Audrey Rose, The Body Snatcher

not to mention he edited Citizen Fucking Kane

best all-around director in the history of cinema!

Absolutely.

How is The Andromeda Strain? I think it's the only one on the list I haven't seen.

Roderick Usher 11-07-2006 07:26 PM

Andromeda Strain is odd. A slow, tense but fascinating medical thriller. Not great, but gripping enough to called pretty damn good.

Have you ever seen Bride of Frankenstein (1935)?

It's a truly superior sequel.

Roderick Usher 11-22-2006 12:00 PM

not horror classics, but classics none the less

3:10 to Yuma - Glen Ford is sooooo creepy cool!

Alexander Nevsky - had never seen this one before, amazing!!!!!

I vaguely remember seeing it as a kid, but I need to see it again.
