I am the MANIAC! I'm 48 and had to be the only 10 or 11 year old who'd rather watch B/W B-movies from the 30s and 40s, Universal Horror and Abbott & Costello, The Three Stooges, Laurel & Hardy, and the Marx Brothers! lol

[@brendaowens1274]

No honey. Your not the only one. I love these movies.

[@nooctip]

You MANIAC. You have good taste? You FIEND!

[@bonnieskelton5563]

I'm right with ya...NEVER WATCHED ANY OF THAT OTHER STUFF Either...horror all the way

[@aaronpennington6689]

Don't feel bad I'm 35 and love old black and white horror movies, old time radio and old Sherlock Holmes with basil rathbone.

[@xbrandi12345x]

That doesn't make you a maniac. It means you have good taste lol

[@NancySanders-om4ic]

This is one unusually,scary movie and plot for the period time it was made.All of the actors were very good in their roles,and the movie shows this as it unfolds.Thank you,for showing this film.

[@davyhenry8985]

I love these old black and white horror movies

[@simonwarner1397]

When it comes to horror films, Bela Lugosi is truly the king of all horror actors, his voice, stare and presence is all you need. Better than Karloff, Lee, Cushing and Price

[@scotnick59]

Yes: he was a fascinating genius with a great commanding presence and superlative speaking voice.

[@cherchezlavache5183]

How right you are! 🍷🌹

[@richardhincemon]

Bala Lugosi, Borris Karloff and Vencint Price are the greatest horror actors ever. No spelling police necessary.👌

[@scarygary-qq1pj]

If they're so great, why are you so careless about spelling their names?🤡🦧

[@lindaanderson7077]

I do love Bela Lugosi in anything that he did- but, I also love the others: Peter Cushing, Christopher Lee, Vincent Price, Boris Karloff...

[@scarygary-qq1pj]

Lon Chaney, Peter Lorre, Lon Chaney Jr. Basil Rathbone...

[@lindaanderson7077]

@@scarygary-qq1pj OH, absolutely!! I had a terrible crush on Basil Rathbone as a little girl. I'm not from that era, but have always loved the old films. Actually taught film- "monster" movies and Sci fi theater for years.

[@scarygary-qq1pj]

@@lindaanderson7077 Yes, I first saw him in "Sherlock Holmes Faces Death". Then I saw some non-Holmes flicks like "Paris" & "Rio", but I prefer the S.H. In an interview, he said he got burned out being Holmes after awhile.🫤

This was really good. I greatly enjoyed it.

[@jamesmiller4184]

When it comes to old movies, none are as Groovy as Bela's! Poverty row thought they were making "s - - t" but, they really were making classics of a unique kind unbeknownst to them- selves. And - SURPRISE - here is one it's self brought to us by no-less- than - - - > Groovy Movies! < - - - ☺

[@eveevelittleevil7422]

DAMN! This was one crackin' little old flick, being buried alive, a scientist being awakened from the dead, and a bizarre sub-plot of a serial killer, which under normal circumstances would be the major plot! ENJOY!

This takes me back to the old Saturday late night "Shock" TV movie on the then WTOP-TV Ch. 9 in Washington DC back in the sixties. They would run this movie about once a year back then and I always watched it. The black and white photography, nighttime scenes with long shadows, spooky house etc., and the seance scene were really cool. I always found the ending somewhat of a laugh to lighten things up a bit before going to bed. Perhaps that was its intent. The movie did mix in a bit of light humor. The detective and newspaper reporter were rather funny. This is one of my favorite Bela Lugosi films, right after Dracula and the Black Cat. He was really good in this. Too bad this film it isn't remembered as a classic.

[@DavidSmith-sb2ix]

I remember iShock. I had abattle with my parents to stay up and watch it. We had to get up for church the next morning. I still enjoy these old movies much more than the horror stuff today. The new ones are either people being torn apart by fake monsters or plots that don't make sense.

The Maniac (the one throughout the movie) is actually one of the scarier villains in 1930s horror. It was very rare having a slasher killer in films of that period.

Another good, old house whodunit from the great old pre-Code days. Nice to see Lugosi as a red herring in a turban.

The heirs to a fortune are required to attend a seance at the spooky old family mansion.however, throughout the night members of the family are killed off one by one! At first it is thought the murders are committed by a man who plants newspaper clippings on his victims that they call the maniac-but it could be someone who wants the oh inheritance! Bela Lugosi was pretty good as the servant- but Wallace ford was irksome as that arrogant newspaper reporter thinks he could solve the mystery and get a scoop-so was that guy playing the police detective! Good movie 🍿 to watch! 😊😊😊😊😊

I'd be the first man to fly without wings 😮😮😮 these old movies from 30 s 40 s 50 s and early 60 are so refreshing than All the bloodlettings in all these slasher movies of last several years and no amoral cutie nudies in an out of bed and a marathon of cuss words 😊😊😊

Rinehart calls Lugosi and his wife heathens. These movies were so unwoke and politically incorrect. That's one of the things I like about them.

Doesn't politically correct mean we're staying with politicians want to say? My great grandpa used to say if you seen a politician at a distance you've seen them at their best…😂

Good movie, but that black chauffeur takes away from the story line, much as Mantan Moreland did in some of the old Charlie Chan movies. All this does is to reinforcement the old stereotypes and distract from the plot. They should have had someone like Frank Jenks with his sarcastic but jittery manner.
