Great movie! His acting was fantastic in that role.

But getting back to Milland and Sci-Fi / Horro movies......

The Man With The X-Ray Eyes!


I love that movie!



Don Cardi cool

Five - ten years from now, they're gonna wish there was American Cosa Nostra. Five - ten years from now, they're gonna miss John Gotti.

Peter Laurie & J. Caroll Nash, right? I remember it well. One of my cult classic favorites!


Peter Lorre was such an uderrated actor. I guess he was the Danny Devito of his day. That movie and The Invasion of the Saucermen were the only movies ever to give me nightmares. Both involved severed hands. Remember in the Saucermen when the hand was crawling up the backside of the carseat? I need to watch both again.

I thought of one and went and scanned the pages and didn't see it mentioned. I know some of older BBers remember "The Incredible Shrinking Man?" I really liked that movie. I felt so sorry for that guy frown (Grant??????something was the actor I believe). Anyway, I thought it was a neat movie.

It seems like it be a good one to remake no? With all of today's technology. Or,maybe they have and I missed it.

That makes two of us, TIS. That was Grant Williams as the guy who kept shrinking away. I saw it last year (on tv) again and was somewhat surprised at how well it stood up against time (even though some of the FX are dated).

Gotta love it when he battled the spider in the basement!

The Bad Seed was exquisite for its theme, its acting, and its simplicity. It was horror without gimmicks, special effects, etc. I think it was the best film expression of the evil that lurks in the soul.

If you guys love all those movies, you should read Danse Macabre by Stephen King. It's about horror movies, radio and TV shows, and covers many of the films you're discussing. Not sure if it's still in print, since it would be a bit outdated with all the films that have come out since it's publication, but try to get it if you can. A fun read.
