Phantom Stranger

'Curse Of The Undead' (1959)
-Michael Pate, Eric Fleming

Plot:

In a small western town, young woman are dying from massive blood loss, the Carter's family ranch is being terrorized by a ruthless land baron, and a mysterious black clad gunslinger with an aversion to sunlight has just ridden into town.

Phantoms Review:  I thoroughly enjoy this movie. While it's definitely a "B" movie with a preposterous plot (a vampire western) it is quite well made and handles it's respective genre's with dignity.  The script is well written, the acting fine and the cast is made up of several well known western character actors.  Beautifully black and white cinematography and some truly spooky music make this a mostly overlooked little gem.

This afternoon:

Frankenstein 1931
Bride of Frankenstein 1935

Great double feature. No mention of  a Diary (yet in the series). However, through some of Henry's dialogue; James Whale provides a lot of insight into this man called Baron Heinrich Frankenstein. When I think of the name Dr. Frankenstein -- I see Colin Clive! Ten times out of ten! It's amazing. Just like Lugosi and Dracula, Karloff and Frankenstein and Lon Jr. as The Wolf Man.

Yes, Clive was the PERFECT Dr. Frankenstein and will always be associated with the character.  I can't think of anyone I would rather have played Dr. Frankenstein.  Just like I can't think of anyone I'd rather have played Dr. Pretorious.  The movies were each perfect unto themselves.  Like an exquisite piece of art, no one should add or subtract anything from it.

Dr. Pretorius was one of the most memorable characters in classic horror. I agree, only Thesiger could have pulled it off so well.
