I would say Vincent Price was my favorite from that era and i liked his ''Masque of the Red Death'' as one my favorites by him.

Oooo, the original 'The Haunting' was just phenomenally creepy. The way the direction on the house made you feel like it was alive! Yikes.

And has anyone else seen that politically incorrect masterpiece 'Freaks'? Talk about feeling uncomfortable watching a movie 'One of us...one of us...one of us...' hee hee.

Vincent Price's dual role of Nicholas/Sebastian Medina in 1961's "Pit and the Pendulum" is to this day my favorite horror movie performance. One of the teachers from my elementary school in Davisburg, MI showed our class (5th graders) that film for Halloween in 1979, and it has been a classic in my mind ever since. Can you imagine a teacher doing that today? They would surely be sued, fired, ostracized.....all of the crap that comes with our current paranoid, polarizing, overreactive society.

Anyway, made for a great memory for me. I didn't even turn out to be a mass murderer because I watched it or anything! Amazing!

Check out "PATP" if you're any kind of horror film buff. You won't be dissapointed.
