My favorite is "Mark Of The Vampire" (1935) with Lionel Barrymore and Bela Lugosi. The lady vampire may be the model for Vampirella, Lilly Munster, and Elvira. She is very scary as she peeks through the window. It has a surprise ending and I won't tell. If it's not on TV this week, you should rent it.

"Plan Nine From Outer Space", (1959) Ed Wood classic. A mixture of science fiction and horror with Bela Lugosi playing a vampire again. The production is hilarious.

"Dracula Prince Of Darkness" (1966) Christopher Lee. Scared the hell out of me in 5th grade.

"Plague Of The Zombies" (1966) saw it as a double feature with "Dracula Prince Of Darkness".

"The Abominable Dr. Phibes" (1971) Vincent Price. Loved that pipe organ. The way that he raised his arms up before hitting the keys.

"Frankenstein" (1931) Boris Karloff. "It's Alive"!

"Bride Of Frankenstein" (1935) Elsa Lanchester is Hot!

"The Body Snatcher" (1945) Boris Karloff, Bela Lugosi.

Only eight. Can't think of any more right now. I don't care for blood and gore movies. They remind me of real life crimes (Jeffery Dahmer) even though they are acting. I look at horror movies like cartoons and want to keep it that way.


I love the old ones also.. especially the Frankenstein series.

I find that ones from the 60's & 70's hold up the best over time. Dracula is just not scary anymore smile Time gets to everything eventually but some films just stick for good.

But favorites and entertaining can be different from scary to.

Love the B movies as well...



Thanks!
