Between the 1930's & 1940's, this studio produced some of the best films that werent part of the classic Universal horrors..and yes, I realize that the Val Lewton films are listed elsewhere, but they are aprt of of RKO's legacy as is The Thing, which is why I included that here even though it is later..

I know most will say King Kong, and I would have went with it to, but not when it goes up against "The Thing from another world".

King Kong.  But yeah; The Thing From Another World is a close second. I also dig The Hunchback.

King Kong here too, The Thing From Another World a close 2nd as well. Both milestone movies in there own unique way. Laughton's Hunchback is great too, saw it this week on TCM.

I like The Body Snatchers.  I think it's different from the one listed above as The Body Snatcher.

THE SPIRAL STAIRCASE.  Who can go wrong with a great story, my beloved Ethel Barrymore....Kent Smith and Dorothy McGuire. To top it off, there is also Elsa Lanchester!  This a really great thriller that scared the stew out of me when I first saw it, and, miracle of miracles.... George Brent was actually GOOD!
