Blood For Dracula (1974, R)
Morrissey's vision, however criticized by today's audience, remains unmatched in the realm of vampiric cinema. I believe this is among the most powerful, astounding & frighteningly enchanting stories of Count Dracula ever told. Udo Kier is beyond fabulous. I am in love with this film. |

Nosferatu, eine Symphonie des Grauens (Nosferatu, The Vampire) (1922, Unrated)
I will never again be able to watch this movie with all the lights out. Everyone involved with this film outdid themselves - something I believe is evident most of all in its lasting ability to terrify its audiences nearly 90 years after its debut. One of my absolute favorite horror films. |

Let Sleeping Corpses Lie(Non sideve profanare ilsonno deimorti)(The Living Dead at Manchester Morgue (1974, R)
Despite complaints from many zombie fans, I believe this is one of the more true-to-heart depictions of the undead. Genuinely eerie in its determination to uphold tradition, LDAMM takes audiences on a fear-riddled journey thru the Italian countryside, all the way to film's greatest stage for terror: a poorly-staffed hospital in the middle of the night. The special effects team did a great job, as well. I was thoroughly terrified. |

El Orfanato (The Orphanage) (2007, R)
There was no doubt in my mind that Guillermo del Toro had something to do with this film from the moment I first saw a US teaser trailer. However, I was surprised at how far beyond the bounds of Spanish horror/fantasy this film was carried by its dedicated cast and revolutionary crew. Eerie, suspenseful, atmospheric, moving... I hid, I laughed, I cried. Bayona's feature-length debut is nothing short of a masterpiece. |
