I bought a 13 tape documentary series called 100 YEARS OF HORROR off ebay recently (for $11.99,no less!). Christopher Lee (oops-SIR Christopher Lee!) is the host. IIt has 13 vhs tapes with different catagories-
1.DRACULA and the VAMPIRES
2.FRANKENSTEIN
3.DOUBLE DEMONS (such as Jekyll and Hyde and the Wolfman)
4.The GRUESOME TWOSOME (Karloff and Lugosi)
5.GHOSTS and PHANTOMS
6.WITCHES and DEMONS
7.MUTANTS and FREAKS
8.SCREAM QUEENS and GIRL GHOULS
9.MADMEN and GORY GIMMICKS
10.ALIENS and SORCERERS
11. the WALKING DEAD
12.MAD SCIENTESTS and MAD MONSTERS
13.GIANTS and DINOSAUERS

It's farirly well done-lotsa clips,trailers and comments by folks like Caroll (Luna) Borland,Vincent Price,Lienna Quigley,Peter Cushing,Robert Wise,Beverly Garland,Turhen Bey,Don Glut,Sarah Karloff,Bela Lugosi Jr.,Gary Chaney,John Carridine,Ralph Bellamy,Caroline Munro,Martine Bestwick! So many more! Best of all-you get clips not only of the classics,but of junk BAD movies too! Lotsa them! Some info is repeated in other episodes....but it's 13 hours of fun!

Wow RC that sounds really great, you cannot go wrong with any of that stuff. I'll have to try and track it down even if its just for the Caroll Borland clips, she was great as Luna. I have her autograph on a note card framed up with that infamous photo of her and Bela standing together in the woods.

I have the DVD set.  I may have posted some comments in here a few months ago.  Too lazy to search for them, though.
