"Dracula" again, it's always remains, well, ... beautiful. I actually saw "Dracula" the Spanish language version recently on a big screen at a local special show at a 1920's movie palace, and I know everyone seem to love it more these days, but I think Lugosi (and Dwight Frye) can't be topped and there's much that's better in the English version. (Sorry to say, its not Harker and Mina.)
My music is for Phoenix. Only she can sing it. Anyone else who tries, dies.

In the last week, I've watched both the Dracula and Wolfman Legacy Collections (all movies). Still love these movies, especially Dracula and the Wolfman. Even after all these years, I find myself still enjoying them. I ordered Frankenstein, Invisible Man and the Mummy. Should have them sometime next week. I know what I'll be doing next weekend! LOL.
I also watched the audio commentary on both Dracula and the Wolfman. Some great info about the movies and it's stars. I hope all the Legacy collections have this feature.

Frankenstein and Bride of Frankenstein, with a short pause between.

I don't know if this belongs in the "classic" section but I recently again saw "Dracula" (1979) with Frank Langella

Just finished watching Son of Frankenstein, Ghost of Frankenstein and House of Frankenstein. Will Load up the original and Bride tomorrow. I really am enjoying these legacy collections. Just received the last one in the mail today. After I finish Frankenstein it's on to the Invisible Man, Creature and than Mummy. Looking forward to it!

I can't stand the Mummy sequels and the Invisible Man sequels  :(

Frankenstein and the Creature sequels are really the only ones that I like...as some of you might be able to tell by now.  I'm more a Japanese monster movie fan and I'm not a huge Uni fan...but the ones that I do like I absolutely LOVE.  The Creature, Kong, The Wolfman and Frankenstein's monster.  With a healthy doses of Uni 50's sci fi films/ Harryhausen films.
