Bride of the Monster (1955,  Unrated)
Bride of the Monster
This is one of the best movies ever made. IBela Lugosi,Tor Johnson,Ed Wood,a rubber octopus...need I say more. Yeah...I guess I could. But I won't. Because I can do that.
2
The Brain That Wouldn't Die (1962,  Unrated)
The Brain That Wouldn't Die
It's Jan inna Pan! And cone head helped!
3
White Zombie (1932,  Unrated)
White Zombie
Could have been a silent film...but than we would miss Bela's wonderfully evil/seductive voice.
The haunting music....the unworldly zombies and Lugosi's GREAT unreal presence take this above and beyond it's B Movie roots. Lugosi can convey evil with the raise of an eyebrow or the slight trace of a sly smile. One of my favorite movies of all time. OF ALL TIME. (Of course, I'm a Lugosi addict...and many may find it stilted and dated,due to the sloww pacing and the melodramatics of the other players...)
Trivia: Madge Bellamy was once a silent actress...and she died at an early age after a short life strife with scandle and tradgedy.)
Jack Pierce...the genuis responsible for all the classic Universal monster make-ups, went on loan to do the spooky zombies.
I went to a White Zombie concert here in Michigan,and a highlight was Bela's hypnotic eyes on a large screen behind the band as they were doing 'More Human than Human'!

The Raven (1935,  Unrated)
The Raven
Bela's finest! "YES! I like to torture!"

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974,  R)
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre
After many sequels,remakes,and rip-offs,this is still THE classic one. A MUST SEE for all horror film fans.Truly scary.Tobe Hooper never quite achieved the success in any of his other films....EATEN ALIVE (with the GREAT Neville Brand) was a geat grindhouse flik,though!

19
Two Thousand Maniacs (1964,  Unrated)
Two Thousand Maniacs
Most HG Lewis movies are dam near unwatchable....(and not because of the cheap ass gore effects). But this one is a keeper! Where elese can you witness cackling EC Comic book hillbillys hack up a woman with an axe-AND listen to some GREAT bluegrass music at the same time? Skip BLOOD FEAST...see this one!

23
I Will Dance on Your Grave: Killing Spree(Killing Spree) (1987,  Unrated)
I Will Dance on Your Grave: Killing Spree(Killing Spree)
This movie is basically a home made job done by Tim (TRUTH or DARE:A CRITICAL MADNESS) Ritter....and it too is an insane mix of black humor and goofy gore. Loads of fun....!
24
Night of the Living Dead (1968,  Unrated)
Night of the Living Dead
Not to much can be said about NotLD that hasn't been...uh...said...sooo...ummmas you can see,I'm not a real wordsmith,so I'll just shut the f&ck up and say if you have't seen it-well-see it! If you don't like it-than your an idiot and I don't want to talk to you ever in my whole life...
25
Satan's Sadists (1969,  R)
Satan's Sadists
No hippiy dippy BS here! If your looking for 'EASY RIDER' social commentary...keep looking! These are SATAN"S SADIST'S " Helling it like it is,man!" Russ Tamblyn is great! And,of course,it's directed by the same genuis(?) who brought us DRACULA vs.FRANKENSTEIN and HORROR of the BLOOD MONSTERS!!!! So your'e ga-run-teed quality entertainment!!! Heheheh...!
