These are the type of horror movies I grew up with as a kid, we had Double Creature Feature on Sat nite on Channel 28 out of Elkhart IN. If the first movie sucked hopefully the second one was better. . The Universal horror movies like Boris Karloff as Frankenstein & The Mummy, Bela Lugosi as Dracula, Lon Chaney JR as The Wolfman are my all time favorites. They seemed to have some really good stories and the special effects were cool for the time.
Next on my list would be movies like The Haunting ( 1963 version, fantastic use of sound to scare you), The Fall of the House of Usher, House on Haunted Hill new and old versions, Hell House, Mask of the Red Death. For some reason skulls and skeleton's scared more than anything else. The Hammer horror movies were ok and so were the Edgar Allen Poe movies.
This B movie (more like C or D) is pretty bad most of the movie, however the end with a battle to the death between Frank and Drac is sort of cool to watch. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ElScLiA1 ... ure=relmfu
Also I never cared for the movies that Elvira showed in the eighties those movies were terrible, even by horror standards. Halloween and Friday the 13th series did not come along till I in my teens the first and second ones were very good.
