Title: Favorite Boris Karloff Horror/Fantasy Film
Post by: Memphremagog on July 29, 2009, 10:46:41 AM
Boris certainly had a long career in the genre, portraying monsters, mad doctors, & madmen all with equal aplomb.  Just about every fan has a favorite from his stuff, whether it's the Frankenstein Monster or one of his other sinister roles. I had forgot the Mummy  and Black Sabbath until the last moment, hence them being on the end of the list. Better late than not at all..

 Don't even have to think about this one, concidering the choice IS my favorite movie ever.  Went with Karloff's excellent 1931 Frankenstein classic.  I've watched this more times than any other movie (and luckily I have an understanding wife).

I don't think I've seen a Karloff movie I DIDN'T like, but I'll go with Bride of Frankenstein. 

I also have to give a special nod to Mad Monster Party as well, a Monster Kid Classic! To paraphrase the liner notes, Karloff gives it class.

They are all great, but I went with Frankenstein(1931).

I figure most will vote for Frankenstein, but I went with "The old Dark House".

1.  The Monster  FRANKENSTEIN 1931
2.  The Monster  BRIDE OF FRANKENSTEIN 1935
3.  John Gray     THE BODY SNATCHER  1945
4.  John Ellman   THE WALKING DEAD  1936
5.  Fu Manchu     THE MASK OF FU MANCHU  1932

Happy Halloween, "Dear Boris!"
