I've been feeling the urge to revisit the iconic, 1930s #Dracula with Lugosi for a while, and since it is #DraculaDay it seems like an approriate evening to pick this from my film library (I have a nice set of the 1930s and 40s Universal horror flicks, a perfect gift from a chum years ago).

"Ozark" actress Julia Garner, once set to star in the scuttled Madonna biopic, has been tapped for a starring role in the Universal/Blumhouse production "Wolf Man", from "The Invisible Man" director Leigh Wannell. Christopher Abbott had been previously cast and will play the husband of Garner's character.

Just watched "The Old Dark House" and I came for the horror but stayed for Ernest Thesiger saying "Have a potato".

Nothing can beat an old classic Universal horror film when it comes to coziness.

📽 The Black Cat, 1934

I do watch other movies I swear, & lately for whatever reason they've almost all been from the 1st half of the 20th century.

I love this bizarre, buck wild, evil art deco movie. Maybe it has nothing to do with Poe's "Black Cat", has too many loose ends, & the soundtrack is too bombastic... But it feels like a dark, Surrealist dream and Béla Lugosi's performance is pretty wonderful if you ask me.

Hadn't realised Friday was (or would have been) the birthday of the legendary Bela Lugosi, the Count himself.

Sudden urge to don my old Goth duster coat (yes, I do still have it), and listen to some Bauhaus youtube.com/watch?v=OKRJfIPiJG

Fond of gadgetry and sadistic set pieces like its (weirder) precursor The Black Cat, #lewlanders #TheRaven, the third film teaming the horror icons, was released by Universal Pictures in the U.S. #OnThisDay in 1935 and swiftly condemned by nervous British authorities.
