Horror films with artist's as important characters
 

I work in an Art Dept., and I had an idea last Halloween to
show a series of horror films in which an artist is one of the main
characters. Some of the movies I came up with were:

Color Me Blood Red
Peeping Tom
Bucket of Blood
House With the Laughing Windows
Track of the Vampire

I'd like to try to add to this list but I'm struggling. I'm sure there
have to more horror films which have artists in them but that criteria
is sort of hard to look up, so i thought perhaps a forum would be a
better approach. Any suggestions from any of you seasoned horror fans
would be appreciated. I also prefer older, campy films, but I realize
I can't be too picky. The beatnik poet description of artist's
superiority to other humans in Bucket of Blood is absolutely
hilarious!

Thanks.

driller killer ...

or was he a musician ? been a while

eyes of laura mars (she designed window displays - an artist of sorts i suppose)

You beat me to it. He was an artist. He hated the band that was always practicing.

House of Wax? He made wax dummies....

I was just gonna say that


er...type that

Spiral. The main character is an artist and the film centers around his artwork.

check out the trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T9_NZ4z2-G4

Portrait of Dorian Grey would be a good candidate as well.

The focus is on the PAINTING- not the artist.

the Mist ... the dad was an artist

really didnt have anything to do with the movie though

Spiral looks like a good one! Thanks!
