The Black Cat (1934) is a Universal classic with rivals Karloff and Lugosi portraying rivals Poelzig and Werdegast (a pair of character names impossible to spell without looking them up first).

The two men face-off in a number of memorable scenes. In one conversation Poelzig challenges Werdegast by saying "Do you dare play chess with me....for her?"

One of the great films of all time, they don't make 'em like this anymore.

I'll go along with Tim and cast my vote for 1934s The Black Cat. Ranks high with me. Many great moments, good story, hard to beat art deco scenery, AND great music. Much of the music also in subsequent Flash Gordon serials, of which I am a big fan.
