Boris Karloff's 10 Best Roles, Besides You-Know-Who
The Vault of Horror — Astute Vault-Dwellers (I know you're out there) will note that I usually do top 10 lists on Tuesdays, not Thursdays. However, this is a special occasion--namely the Boris Karloff Blogathon, hosted by Pierre Fournier of Frankensteinia. And since I wasn't able to do it on Tuesday due to Ms. Horror Blogosphere duties (polls now open, by the way, please vote), I'm breaking the rules and doing a Thursday Top 10. You're probably reading a lot of posts about Karloff's portrayal of the Frankenstein Monster in James Whale's 1931 masterpiece. And ...

The first entry I posted here was some scans of a comic adaptation of Die, Monster, Die! provided by Kimberly Lindbergs, who posted a companion-piece on the movie at her own blog Cinebeats. I wanted to do one more entry, on one of my favorite horror films, Mario Bava's The Wurdalak. Wurdalak is, in my judgment, one of ...
