I found some old Bela Lugosi movies on DVD in a CVS store recently!
I also like his Dracula movies, especially the one where the crazy guy is looking up from the hole where he is in and laughing in a grinding tone.
He also enjoyed eating bugs too.
The classics from Di Nero, such as the "Bronx Tale" is also a great movie.
Don't forget Boris Karloff as Frankenstein!

He also enjoyed eating bugs too. The crazy guy (Renfield) was played by a guy named Dwight Frye, who was a VERY talented actor. Unfortunaltey for him, he played that role so well, he got typecast into horror movies (he also plays the assistant in Frankenstein and bride of frankenstien), and was never allowed to do a "straight" picture after that! Your'e right though Joe, that seen with him in the boat laughing manically is CLASSIC! His scenes eating bugs and fantasizing about thousands of rats is awesome! What a great actor he was! If you're into the genre, there is a box set of 50 horror movies you can get from best buy for like 25 bucks(!) that has some great films (and some bad ones).I also recommend the universal monster series sets, which each have about 5 movies (invisible man, dracula, muumy, frank, creature from the black lagoon, etc) for about 25 bucks as well.

I like all the bad '70s disaster movies like The Posiedon Adventure, Airport, Towering Inferno, and of course Jaws. More modern stuff I'd go with Saving Private Ryan, The Patriot, Black Hawk Down. For any movie fan you MUST have a decent home theater setup and as big a screen as possible. You just don't get the impact watching a movie on a 30" tv. Speaking of tv , not to threadjack, but how about tv shows? Being a kid of the '80s I watched some seriously bad tv. I'll confess that my cell phone ringtone is the theme from the A-Team and I will likeley see the Dukes of Hazzard Movie. My all time favorite though would be "Spenser For Hire". I loved the show, read the books and named my son accordingly.

Making Plan 9, Wood was on a very tight budget and hired cars on a daily basis. So Officer Kenton(?)/Keston(?) races off from the Station in his white Ford Patrol Car to the Cemetary, and arrives in a black sedan, as the Ford was out to someone else that day! Bela Lugosi sadly passed away half-way through filming, and for the remainer of the film 'he' has a hood pulled over his head. Now, if you want to talk TV: The Beverley Hillbillies: Granny Clampett schemin' t' be 'Racoon Queen' was just PERFECT. Alan [This message has been edited by Alan Belson (edited 06-18-2005).]
Wood work but can't!

Can't watch a movie like that on tv. Commercials and editing stink.
