The Vampire (1957)

This was a neat little film and one I didn't expect to like. I got it on the double feature with Return of Dracula from Midnight Movies. Since it's the 50s-- science creates a vampire-- but with...

This is a neat little film, definitely one of the better Bs of the '50s. Back in 1971, I was lucky enough to catch a double feature of this and MONSTER THAT CHALLENGED THE WORLD, another classic B, at...

What gets me is that when the monster is hiding in the shadows and watching as people gather around Carrie's body, he smiles grotesquely as though he's enjoying what he's just done and the effect it's...

Re: The Vampire (1957)

yea, ed, but to me the scene that gives me shivers is when he is stalking Carol (Grey) and she sees him, begins to run, makes it to her apt. in the nick of time, and he is trying the doorknob....oh...

That's part of what makes Beecher's alter ego frightening. He's smart as he is dangerous, knowing how to open a door, disposing of a corpse via incinerator, and then quickly planning an ambush on the...

Re: The Vampire (1957)

I LOVE THIS FILM! Was it played a lot in the days of creature feature shows? Closest I come to that is stuff like Monstervision and 100 % Weird on TNT! Well, I guess I had the Ghoul show and Big Chuck...

His face DOES look creepy! I don't care how many people say the makeup is not good! I think it's his facial expressions! It looks like turning into a vampire bat man is HURTING him! AND that is SO...

I think it was intentional misdirection with the Henry character. Like, you were supposed to think he was going to be some kind of a vampire too, what with the sunglasses and weirdness. Still, I think...

Re: The Vampire (1957)
