May 24 08 3:10 PM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	early sound guy wrote: Counting features only, I have 71 apiece for Karloff and Lugosi (I suppose it's fitting they're tied) and 32 for Lon Chaney Jr. Outside of horror/sci-fi stars, I have 31 Bette Davis features, 30 features for Oliver Hardy, 26 for Stan Laurel and 25 for W.C. Fields and Bogart. If you counted shorts, of course, L&H would be my champions. How'd you manage 71 of Lugosi? What's the secret?

Son of Frankenstein. Black Friday. Devil Bat. Dark Eyes of London. The Black Cat '41. Night Monster. Ghost of Frankenstein. Frankenstein meets the Wolf man. Return of the Vampire. Invisible Ghost. Corpse Vanishes. A&C meet Frankenstein. Bride of the Monster. Anyone suggest any Bela 'must haves' that I really should own?

Sep 30 08 2:57 PM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	Well... if you like Bride of the Monster, there's Plan 9 and Glen or Glenda. I can't recommend them in good conscience, but I think they're a hoot. And I probably should add Bela to my list as I have most of what you listed.

Oct 1 08 12:09 AM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	Silent, and not genre, but Daughter of the Night from 1920 is better than anything you're missing, and better than half of what you already have. (imdb lists it as: Der Tanz auf dem Vulkan - 1. Sybil Young) It's a slightly dark spy movie, ful of intrigue, set in the Russian revolution. Bela plays the rich guy/hero who gets dragged into the intrigue. I'm not always thrilled with Bela's acting ability, but I think he's exceptional in this. sinistercinema has it heavily cut, but I hear that's the only way it's available. Also, Phantom Ship (aka. The Mystery of the Marie Celeste) might be worth watching, if only because it's an early Hammer film (their second) and the only Hammer with Lugosi. It's... well... pretty much everyone on the ship gets killed. I can recommend Plan 9 with a clear conscience. You just need to see Johnny Depp in Ed Wood first.

Jun 14 09 7:37 PM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	I would guess that character actors, such as Carradine, are the ones I have the most of. Someone like Tom London pops up in almost every B western and serial, as well as in movies as diverse as BEAST OF THE CITY, HIGH NOON, and TARANTULA. I probably have him more than anyone. As for stars, I think Karloff and Lugosi are pretty far ahead, although I do like and collect movies from most other genres. Last Edited By: atenolol Jun 14 09 7:41 PM. Edited 1 times.

Jul 14 09 11:02 PM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	Oddly enough, due to this book I'm working on Lon Chaney Jr wins at around 95 plus a bunch of television stuff. I have about 85 Laurel & Hardy films... I'm working on that. (103 of the 106 are available on DVD now. The others are lost.) And about 45 or so Vincent Price films. I'm working on that too. Haven't counted much otherwise.

Jan 5 11 10:35 PM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	I choose movies for their content rather than their cast. I probably am more influenced by who's behind the camera than in front of it. I have almost every Toho sci-fi movie of the 50's and 60's, all the Harryhausen movies (except 3 WORLDS OF GULLIVER), most of George Pal's fantasy/sci-fi work (except THE POWER and DOC SAVAGE), and many Universal and other classic 50's sci-fi and monster films. As far as any particular actors/actresses in my collection, there's not a lot: Lee Van Cleef - 12 Annette Funicello- 8 Frankie Avalon- 8 Richard Carlson- 4 Richard Denning- 4 Last Edited By: gorgozilla Apr 30 12 12:09 AM.

Jan 7 11 12:15 AM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	Do you mean "the canon"? i.e. an actor's output...or just numerically? If it's The Canon, it's Colin Clive, with 16 of the 18 films he made. "E" Your Signature ... "....I do hope he won't upset Henry..."
