White Zombie (1932). Simply awesome, especially considering the budget and the prop limitations. Ashe.

Hush...Hush Sweet Charlotte (1964)

Though not as great as WHTBJ? but surely it's a decent follow up of Baby Jane from the collaboration of Bette Davis & Robert Aldrich. Pretty nicely done an intense psychological thriller with a fantastic powerful cast.

Vampyr (1932)

An outstanding masterpiece from early years of Horror cinema. The movie made me almost as amazed as I was after watching The Cabinet of Dr. Calligari. Whatever the reasons behind the print quality, it intentionally or unintentionally able to build an eerie, uncanny atmosphere with mind blowing magical shadow game & brilliant camera trickery, considering at the time they made the film. Hat's off to the people behind the camera.

Ive seen alot worse movies than The Wicker Man referred to as a classic in this thread. Some dolt actually put one the Friday the 13th movies, like part 5 or something.






Peeping Tom is awsome, been to long since Ive seen that.

We're not talking specifically here about what people consider to be "a classic," but films released in the classic era- pre-1970. For films 1970 on, pleae post in the modern horror forum.

I've been watching Les Vampires. Gleefully anarchic, but I can only take so much of it at once. It kind of sucks that it's due back tomorrow and I've only watched the first half.

"It ! The Terror From Beyond Space"

One of the great 1950's sci-fi monster movies and the inspiration for the original "Alien"

Whatever Happened to Aunt Alice? (1969)



The last part of Robert Aldrich's Psycho-biddy trilogy with another great cast on the leads. Geraldine Page as usually gave a stellar performance as a wicked widow and Ruth Gordon surely was an equal match on the opposite as the tough, temperamental old biddy determined to bring her to justice. Not as great as Baby Jane & Sweet Charlotte but overall it's a pretty decent part indeed.
