what happened to really top-class-scary-movies? i mean, look at all the remakes like haunted hill etc. even with crap technology at the time people were able to scare the shit out of house .. today, at best they make me laugh, but most of them are just appaling. House of Wax .. egh ... -- béla (retching), 10/30/09 11:48am

The Others with Nicole Kidman I thought was very good - it was scary without being gross. But I think that's about 10 years old or more. The classic movie channel is showing all Boris Karloff's movies, he was scary without even doing anything! -- Amy, 10/30/09 3:41pm

What about all the great Vincent Price movies? "The Tomb of Lygea" was a classic. I just loved his voice. He also did a movie called "Dragonwyck" with Jean Simmons which was kind of a dark, gothic film. That was great, too. -- Liz, 10/30/09 6:20pm

I thought burning the caretaker to death in the cellar was a nice touch. Aunt Monica is lucky Rhoda disappeared before she tried to get her bird. -- Liz, 11/ 1/09 10:32am

Ohhh, that's right!! Didn't she use the hay for his bed to fuel the fire? Or am I remembering wrong? Darn~it's been ages since I've seen this movie, gonna go add it to my Netflix queu... -- Ellie~watch out for little blond girls in ruffle dresses!!!, 11/ 1/09 4:05pm

Ellie, you've got it totally correct. He saved the excelsior from all the boxes and packages and made a bed for himself out of it, and she took the matches and set him on fire. I think his name was LeRoy. -- Liz, 11/ 1/09 9:44pm
