Boris Karloff

1. The Bride of Frankenstein
2. Frankenstein
3. The Body Snatcher
4. The Black Cat
5. Bedlam
6. The Mummy
7. Black Sabbath
8. The Black Room
9. The Grinch Who Stole Christmas
10. Son of Frankenstein

^ Very close to my own!

1. FRANKENSTEIN (1931)
2. the BRIDE OF FRANKENSTEIN (1935)
3. the BODY SNATCHER (1945)
4. the BLACK CAT (1934)
5. BLACK SABBATH (1963)
6. TARGETS (1968)
7. the OLD DARK HOUSE (1932)
8. the DEVIL COMMANDS (1941)
9. the MASK OF FU MANCHU (1932)
10. HOW THE GRINCH STOLE CHRISTMAS (1966)

I didn't include SON OF FRANKENSTEIN (1939) because Karloff does almost nothing in it. Lugosi steals the show, and Rathbone and Atwill had good roles too.
The MUMMY (1932)...I dunno. Photography is beautiful, but the film itself crawls like it's mummified.

Supernatural?...perhaps. Baloney?...Perhaps not!" Bela Lugosi-the BLACK CAT (1934)
Interviewer-"Does Dracula ever end for you?
Lugosi-"No. Dracula-never ends."

^ I love ISLAND OF LOST SOULS, but didn't include it on my Bela list, because he's in it for only a few small scenes. Ditto with PLAN 9, in which he was dead 3 years before it was even made!

Wait! I saw DAWN OF THE PLANET OF THE APES too. I don't remember much about it, though.  :bluesad:

I could not agree more.  I wanted to make the same 2 changes.  SON OF FRANKENSTEIN might be my own favorite of the original 3, and it is all about BELA !!!
