I thought you might enjoy this classic.

Originally released in 1922 as Nosferatu, Eine Symphonie Des Grauens, director F.W. Munarau's chilling and eerie adaption of Stoker's Dracula is a silent masterpiece of terror which to this day is the most striking and frightening portrayal of the legend.

Director: F.W. Murnau

Carnival of Souls - Horror - 1962 - BW

Perhaps the most famous 60's horror film behind Night Of The Living Dead, Carnival Of Souls features our heroine, Mary Henry ( played by Candace Hilligoss ) as a young woman involved in a car accident where 2 of her friends die. From this point on Mary is haunted by eerie, creepy images of what appear to be corpses. She also suffers spells where she can't hear anything going on around her and enters a different world.

She is lead to an old dance hall / amusement center in the middle of nowhere. It's dilapidated and old but she's drawn nearer and nearer.

In the end, we find it's been - well, watch and see - it'll creep you out for sure.

The Vincent Price classic

"By night they leave their graves, crawling, shambling, through empty streets, whimpering, pleading, begging for his blood!" Directed by Ubaldo Ragona, in 1964. Film available at Public Domain Torrents.

Explorer Professor Challenger is taking quite a beating in the London press thanks to his claim that living dinosaurs exist in the far reaches of the Amazon. Newspaper reporter Edward Malone learns that this claim originates from a diary given to him by fellow explorer Maple White's daughter, Paula. Malone's paper funds an expedition to rescue Maple White, who has been marooned at the top of a high plateau. Joined by renowned hunter John Roxton, and others, the group goes to South America, where they do indeed find a plateau inhabited by pre-historic creatures, one of which they even manage to bring back to London with them.

Warning from Space or Mysterious Satellite (Spacemen Appear in Tokyo) is a 1956 science fiction tokusatsu film produced by Daiei, and the first Japanese science-fiction film produced in color.

A group of starfish like aliens from the planet Pyra, which is on the same orbital plane as Earth but on the opposite side of the sun come to Earth to warn mankind about a runaway planetoid known as Planet R that is on a collision course with Earth. It is feared that when Earth is destroyed that their planet will be destroyed as well. However, their form causes people to panic, so they chose a female member of their race to take human form to spread their message. They then decide to contact a prominent scientist who has invented a new source of energy that can also be made into the most destructive bomb the world has known to destroy the planetoid. Unfortunately, the scientist is kidnapped by enemy agents who want to use the bomb for their own purposes. Now it becomes a race against time to find the scientist so he can complete his formula and save mankind.

Teenagers from Outer Space is a 1959 science-fiction B-movie about an extraterrestrial ship landing on Earth to use it as a farm for its food supply. The crew of the ship includes several teenagers (who ironically look quite old for teenagers), two of whom oppose each other in their activities.

A Bela Lugosi Movie

A newspaper reporter begins to investigate after a series of brides die suddenly during their wedding. Her quest leads her to the secret of eternal youth and almost gets her killed.

Bella Lugosi stars in Invisible Ghost as Charles Kessler. Kessler is well thought of by everyone who knows him and when people are murdered on his estate, he is as shocked as anyone else, and when his daughter's boyfriend is accused of murder he tries his utmost to help the young man. There is another side to Charles Kessler though. A side that he is not even aware of himself.

Invisible Ghost is a classic horror and it is nice to see Lugosi get the chance to portray some warmer feelings as the doting father. Every time Kessler catches a glimpse of his estranged wife though, and lapses into a strange fugue-like state he seems to almost sleepwalk to search out his victims. Whenever this happens it is more humorous to see than horrific, but Lugosi still manages to look sinister for a lot of the film too.

White Zombie stars a satanic-looking Bella Lugosi and was released in 1932. It is often described as being the first ever zombie film. Plantation owner, Charles Beaumont, convinces the soon to be married Neil and Madeleine to have their ceremony on his property. Beaumont's offer, though, has an ulterior motive: he wants Madeleine for himself.

It would seem that, in the devious plantation owners mind, all is fair in love and war, even if it means killing the one that you love and turning her into a zombie (there must be easier ways to get a date). Beaumont seeks the help of an evil Voodoo master called Murder Legrande (Bella Lugosi) and Legrande agrees to help, but a double cross is in the air.

Produced and directed by Roger Corman, The Little Shop of Horrors is a cult classic. A bungling florist called Seymour finds that he has created a monster when the plant that he has nurtured starts demanding: "FEED ME!" All fine and dandy if the talking plant just wanted a few grow-bags and a bit of liquid fertilizer, but this plant has a taste for blood.

A young Jack Nicholson makes a brief appearance in the middle of the film, as a man in the dentist's surgery that just can't get enough pain.

The Vampire Bat is an old film that, at the time, put a new spin on the vampire story. Just what that spin is I can't say without spoiling the film for those who might want to watch it. If you do decide to watch it, keep an eye out for Fay Wray, who plays Ruth Burtin - you can't miss her, she's in every other scene. Classic film buffs might remember Fay from, amongst other things, the original King Kong. Fay really shines in this film, as does Dwight Frye as Herman Gleib, the gaunt and creepy looking guy with an unhealthy obsession with bats.

If you are a fan of Bella Lugosi you will probably want to watch Black Dragons. If you are not, I really would not bother to waste the time on it. Lugosi is suitable sinister, but that is about the only good thing that I can find to say about this pointless spy-yarn set just before World War 2.

Shock was filmed in 1946 and stars Vincent Price, Lynn Bari and Anabel Shaw. It is the story of a woman, Janet Stewart (Anabel Shaw) who goes into shock after witnessing a murder. Unfortunately for Janet she finds herself under the care of Dr Cross, who just happens to be the man who she witnessed murdering his wife.

It's a scary thought, I suppose: being trapped inside a hospital and under the care of doctor whose best interests are served if everyone thinks that you are mad, or of course if you happen to suffer an accidental overdose during the course of your treatment, and that, in a nutshell, sums up Janet's dilemma.

Revolt of the Zombies is a rather poor film from 1936. If you go your whole life without having to sit through it you will not have missed much.

During the World War I an oriental priest is imprisoned to prevent his secrets from falling into the wrong hands. His secret knowledge, of course, is how to make zombies. Unfortunately for the master of all things zombie somebody sticks a knife in his back while he is praying in his cell. Not being a zombie himself, but just a zombie master, the poor guy bites the dust and his secret dies with him. After the war, however, an expedition representing the interests of the allied countries is sent to the dead priest's homeland to try and find his secret and supposedly destroy it.

Attack of the Giant Leeches is a low-budget horror film from 1959. It might not be the most exciting of films, but I suppose there are worse ways to kill an hour or so.

Problems, problems, problems in the Everglades. Dave walker has a cheating she-vixen of a wife who walks all over him, and there are giant leeches in the swamp. Dave will have to sort out his wife himself - not to mention the guy who is giving her a regular 'sorting out.' As for the leeches, the local game-warden, Steve Benton, will need to get to grips with that problem because the local sheriff seems to have no interest in the matter at all.

Roger Corman's Creature from the Haunted Sea is a tongue-in-cheek story about a gang of crooks who try to swindle a trunk of money away from some Cuban Exiles. Part of their plan involves a fabricated story of a sea monster. The only problem is that the story is not as fabricated as they believed and a very fabricy looking sea monster wearing flippers and Freddy Kruger gloves starts interfering with their plans.

Two men, one woman, and she is the last woman on earth. Filmed in black and white and directed by Roger Corman, The Last Woman on Earth is probably best described as being part sci-fi and part horror. It's not a terrifying film though. It is an unusual one, and is well worth watching for its entertainment value.

Roger Corman produced and directed A Bucket of Blood, and Dick Miller is excellent, in the starring role of Walter Paisley.

Like everyone, Walter has his dreams and is an aspiring sculptor who wants nothing more than to be accepted by his peers. Unfortunately Walter's talents don't quite come up to his expectations. Walter's luck changes when his landlady's cat, Frankie, gets caught in the hollow wall cavity of his home. In an attempt to free the unfortunate feline Walter stabs a knife into the wall, but kills the poor cat in the process. Walter can think of only one way to hide Frankie's body and covers it in clay, leaving the knife sticking out from the finished sculpture, which just happens to look pretty darn good. Walter's boss, Leonard, displays the sculpture in his club, it is a roaring success and Walter's dreams seem to be coming true. But will anyone notice that, as Walter's exhibits grow in number, the club's clientele is shrinking?

Dementia 13 was written and directed by Francis Ford Coppolla, and produced by Roger Corman. It is the story of a scheming wife who covers up her husband's death and tries to get herself written into her mother-in-laws will. To add a little creepiness to the story the mother-in-law lives in an Irish castle, where there seems to be a resident ghost, not to mention a rather unpleasant axe-murderer.

Released in 1960 and Also known as City of the Dead, Horror Hotel is a true classic. Modern-day films rely on modern-day special effects. Back in the day of B/W special effects were in their infancy and a good horror needed to rely on atmosphere. Horror hotel has atmosphere and I rate that over effects any day. Most of the story takes place in a strange village, with even stranger locals. To make things stranger still it is always foggy in the village and when a stranger comes to town, in the curvy form of student, Nan Barlow, who is researching witchcraft, she gets a closer insight into the subject than she might have liked.

A young-looking Christopher Lee has a supporting role in the film and manages to add a little extra darkness to the proceedings just by his very presence.

A beautiful woman by day - a lusting queen wasp by night. Strong men forced to satisfy a passion no human knows.
