Got in the mood for it around Halloween. Old Christopher Lee movie about witchcraft in a remote New England town. Although I saw this under the title Horror Hotel it is a great creepy witchcraft film. I would recommend this one highly.

Title: Re: best black and white movies you saw this year Post by: Mofo Rising on December 30, 2009, 01:11:58 AM I watched a lot of black and white movies this year, but for the most part they were interesting exercises in early film. None of them were The Passion of Joan of Arc.
The best black and white film I saw this year was Repulsion. Polanski has been in the news this year because somebody finally called him on his bulls**t escape from the law (and yes, he deserves every bad thing that is going to happen to him), but he is still a great filmmaker. Repulsion is a fine film. Title: Re: best black and white movies you saw this year Post by: Andrew on December 30, 2009, 10:21:45 AM I watched a lot of classics this year. Here are some favorites:
Seven Samurai Touch of Evil Casablanca The Seventh Seal Harvey Sunset Boulevard Gojira and I still haven't caught the most up-to-date version of Metropolis, gosh darn it! |
