Bride of Frankenstein may be my fave horror film of all time. It's perfect!

slayer666 11-24-2006 04:05 AM

Eyes Without a Face (1960). I'm not sure how I kept missing this one, but it is nice to have finally seen it.

House of Dracula
 
Coming near the end of the initial cycle of the Universal Monsters horror films, House of Dracula is more science fiction than horror and incorporates some of the more cheesy elements which would come to typify the sci-fi films of the 1950's. Lon Chaney Jr. plays the Wolf Man, and John Carradine, Dracula.

A mad scientist sets out to "cure" both monsters of their "sicknesses" by means of modern [read:mad] science. When the scientist's beautiful nurse-assistant is revealed to be a hunchback early in the film, the viewer is thereby alerted to the fact this film is not going to be typical Universal fare.

I saw this recently and found the film quite enjoyable.

Nope

Classics for sure, but not by the forums definition.

Both excellent, excellent flicks.

Return, have you seen The Invisible Man Returns? Very enjoyable sequel with a great cast, including Vincent Price.

Doctor X (1932)

Doctor Xavier heads a medical research institute that is linked to a series of murders. To save the reputation of his institute, he bargains with the police for an opportunity to discover who the killer is, using his own scientific means.

Lionel Atwill and Fay Wray give excellent performances. Even the bungling reporter, although played somewhat for laughs, is not without charm.

The two colour Technicolor print added to the eerie atmosphere.

Roderick Usher 12-17-2006 11:15 AM

not horror, but...

HARVEY - 10/10

"because nobody ever brings anything small into a bar"

Do movies get better than this?

I had previously seen the black and white version, but that was many years ago. I wish I still had it to compare with the Technicolor.

I saw both recently, and it's a hard call.

Of course, you know me, I love my black and white.

But for this particular film the technicolour adds a bizzarre, chaotic atmospheric feel to the film (like you said). It fits perfectly.

alkytrio666 12-21-2006 08:27 AM

Creature With the Atom Brain (1955)

Sluggishly paced B-sci-fi/horror picture with quite a few holes. I didn't particularly enjoy it at all, though it had its moments.

BlackSunProductions 12-21-2006 03:53 PM

Popped in Creature from the Black Lagoon last night. I'm doing number two tonight.

Where did you get to see the B&W - DVD or TV?

Mad Love (1935)

A prolific surgeon (Prof Gogol) is infatuated with a local stage actress. However he discovers she is married to a concert pianist. Her husband is involved in a train wreck, destroying his hands. She takes her husband to Professor Gogol, who tries the unconventional to save her husband's hands. Gogol becomes increasingly psychotic as his attempts to win her love are twarted.

This is an amazing film. Peter Lorre as Gogol is excellent - an outstanding performance. Highly recommended viewing.

Nothing says Christmas like flesh eating zombies. I think I'll watch it to.

I am going to throw it on in just a minute. Merry Christmas, everyone!

TV. TCM, methinks.


So I'm assuming you ended up getting the Hollywood Legends of Horror collection? Good quality?

I hope I get this one badly.

Given the age of the source material, the quality is excellent. Naturally there are film artefacts (Doctor X is nearly 75 years old!) but they are very watchable and some of the films are uncannily well presented.

Cool. I'm looking forward to it. What a great collection of films!

I have to admit that it easily surpassed my expectations. I am going to have to seek out more Lewton flicks.

Ive been starting to get into his work myself...rented and really enjoyed Seventh Victim not long ago, and got Cat People, Curse of the Cat People, The Body Snatcher and I Walked With A Zombie for Christmas.

From what Ive seen so far (7th Victim and the 2 Cat People flicks), he made some damn good stuff. The second Cat People wasnt so hot, but the other two were fantastic...definatly looking forward to the rest of his films:)
