Last Seen pre-1970 Classic/Vintage Horror Movie?

I have heard that the director of V. and the ballerina did a movie around the same time called Vampire of the Opera. I wouldn't mind seeing that.

I believe he does it in the original story...been awhile since I've read it.
Definitely in the 1939 version and Anthony Hopkins one. And also sure it's in the 1923 Chaney film.
A great way of Crowd control!!

Did you ever see George Romero's vampire film "Martin"?

Sculpt, You should check out MOTV, for despite the awful acting and truly Suck ass end, it does have it's moments. Amazing camera work by James Wong Howe, neat sets and Bela is pretty scary . Once should be enough.

MARTIN is a great film, one of my favorites from Romero. John Amplas is very good and absolute gentleman when my wife and I met him at HORRORFIND 2008.

If you recommend it, I'll check it out. Always nice to see Bella.

I didn't know Amplas, who played Martin, went on to play characters in other Romero's films. In Day of the Dead, he was Dr. Fisher, technician and aide to Dr "Frankenstien" Logan.

He is also in DAWN OF THE DEAD as Martinez with a long wig-I believe he also worked on the casting for the film, but not 100%

Guess I'll just have to log off and watch the film!

The shrews in Killer Shrews were wearing Rat-tails? How fashionable.

Maybe they were creatures that killed shrews. You know, like Killer Whales kill whales.

I'm watching "The Screaming Skull" on MST3K.

The scene of that "ghost" running and skipping in that big hat and dress was too funny.
