You can't go wrong with Hammer Horror. Well, OK, that's not entirely true. They did make some clunkers and not all of their movies are of the same standard, but when they were on form they managed to produce some of the best horror movies of that era. I'm a fan of the first 3 Hammer Dracula movies. Things start feeling repetitive after that though. RE the Frankenstein ones, Frankenstein Created Woman (1967) is my personal favourite. It's such an odd little movie and the Baron is unusually sympathetic in it. Even the lesser or more forgettable Hammer films, usually managed to include a certain gothic or romantic elegance to them, which made them stand out, to many of the American horror films of that period, and also sure works quite well, a certain late night comfort-movie, that works so well, specially now, when it is fall and yeah, just fits so well with the time of year. I am not sure if I have seen Frankenstein Created Woman, but will be on the lookout for it, since next week, I will turn my attention to the Frankenstein Hammer films, that I own, and those that I do not, hopefully they are somewhere to be found, online.
