Title: Paramount's Classic Horrors Poll

Sometimes with all the kudos going to the Universals, RKO's, etc..of this era, a few real gems are overlooked. Going by the list provided here, it would be obvious that some of these are true classics and worthy of praise...Paramount may not have been as well-known for their horror output as other studios during the Golden Age, but when they did release something, it was usually a film of some quality.

I'm a sucker for ghost stories, so I went with "The Uninvited"

Another great list of hard choices, but I went w/Jekyll & Hyde. Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde is on par with anything from Universal's "golden age" IMO.

I went with ISLAND OF LOST SOULS.  It's one of the most hoped for movies waiting for a DVD release.

Hard list to pick from....
I went with 'The Uninvited'

I love that they're checking out the Lil Abner Dog Patch Band Windup Toy
when window shopping-

Anyone know anything about the huge painting they're looking at during the art show?

SUPERNATURAL, otherwise known as "Lombard's Revenge".  She HATED doing it, and it ended up being shut down temporarily by the 1933 Earthquake!

"no likey quakey!!!"   After 33 years in Southern California, I'm STILL not used to them.
