I love both versions, but I can't start either one of them after 7PM without first installing toothpicks to force my eyelids open.

Just curious, todmichel, do the non-Americans you speak with watch the Lugosi version with an English soundtrack? A good part of my enjoyment of the Lugosi performance comes from just listening to his delivery of the dialogue. It's frequently odd, occasionally hilarious, but always entertaining. I never get that from Villarias.
