[metalmonster]

Bela Lugosi Was Born October 20 1882 , Today He Turns 127



To Celebrate I Rented PLAN 9 FROM OUTER SPACE , I've Never Seen It Before But I've Heard A Lot Of Good (and bad) Things About It



Is Anyone Else Doing Anything Special To Celebrate This Master Of Bad Horror?

That's cool news.  I wonder if RC is doing anything special for this event?

[SPazzo]

That's cool!  I'll probably watch some of his movies; Plan 9, Dracula, etc...

That's cool news.  I wonder if RC is doing anything special for this event?

RC will be watching a triple feature of THE DEVIL BAT, BELA LUGOSI MEETS A BROOKLYN GORILLA, and THE BOWERY AT MIDNIGHT... so no, he's not doing anything unusual.

I'll be glad when RC gets his PC back . . . in the meantime, here's to Bela . . . the best, and original, screen Dracula . . .

Yep - sounds like a normal evening for RC.

Happy Birthday, Bela and hurry back, RC!

In honor of Lugosi's birthday last night we watched "Scared To Death" notable as it was his only color film. I had never seen it before, and while it was short on the suspense and scares (not to mention Lugosi), the dialogue was very funny! RC is sorely missed around here.
