  1. Too fun! Karloff's voice is great. I want him to say And he, he Himself, carved the roast beast.

    1. Me, too. Often overlooked, it surprises me how many people won't watch b&w films.

  6. I've seen this film. It is too fun in a vintage comedy sort of way if I remember correctly.

    1. The 50s horror films have a bad reputation in some circles, but I love them. No blood, no gore, but plenty of thriller suspense.

  7. This sounds really familiar...another Saturday night monster movie on TV, I think. Elvira hosted those. ;)

    1. We got them on Wednesday afternoons or with a local host late at night. I'd forgotten how many of the old horror B movies I'd seen as a child.

  8. There is something wrong with my internet. I wonder why it is so slow all of a sudden. I was going to watch this yesterday (and thought I had left a comment saying so), but I had a terrible time with it buffering.
