Howling, scratching, biting, scrambling through the underbrush,terrorizing the countryside, evading angry mobs, and moon worship. Most of all I love to watch Penny Dreadful's Shilling Shockers!

Aside from wonderful horror classics like "The Wolfman" "Bride of Frankenstein"
"Dracula" and "The Mummy" I really love "Horror Hotel" "M" and "The Terror" as well as "The Brain That Wouldn't Die" "The Wicker Man" starring Christopher Lee, and absolutely anything by John Waters, Herschel Gordon Lewis, Russ Myers, and Ed Wood,and Mel Brooks, and speaking of Mel Brooks- I really enjoy a good musical. Yes, it's true! "Hedwig and The Angry Inch" "The Rocky Horror Picture Show" "Spamalot" and "The Wizard of Oz" which I also consider a horror classic. Margaret Hamilton portrays the witch taking such sheer delight in her evilness, one of the greatest performances ever if you watch her closely. "Blazing Saddles" "Young Frankenstein" Mel Brooks is a genius, as are Woody Allen and Alfred Hitchcock and Kevin Smith, and anything with Esther Williams swimming or skiing through it or choreographed by Busby Berkely.
"The Philadelphia Story" and all of "The Thin Man" films for their witty repartee and glorious acting. "Blood Simple" "Fargo" "The Big Lebowski" "The Birds" "Whatever Happened to Baby Jane" "Mildred Pierce" "All About Eve" "Zelig" "Love and Death" "Bananas" "Clerks" and "Clerks II" "Dogma" "Mallrats" "Chasing Amy" "The Addiction" "Welcome to the Doll House" "Fear Anxiety and Depression" "Barton Fink" "A Clockwork Orange" "Mighty Aphrodite" "Shadows and Fog" "Love and Death" "Bananas" "A Day At The Races" "A Night At The Opera" "Lock, Stock, And Two Smoking Barrels" "Priscilla, Queen of the Desert" and every single movie of John Waters, he never makes a "bad" one. Also, "How To Stuff A Wild Bikini" Herschel Gordon Lewis, especially "Gruesome Twosome" & Russ Myers & Ed Wood for livin' the dream and always going for broke.John Casavettes & Gena Rowlands, Harmony Korine, Anthony Penta... oh yeah, and Orson Welles, he was pretty good too.
