Sitting here watching the original Dracula from 1931 with Bella Lugosi.  Almost all of the actors were dead before I was born.  The movie has been restored and digitized for HD, its full screen on my larger TV.  I saw the wires on the bat.  But the camera did a pretty good job of capturing it.

80 some years in the future, the primitive equipment did a pretty good job of capturing the images.  This was filmed before WWII.

Makes me wonder, how will our generation be immortalized?

Listen to them. Children of the night. What music they make!

Love watching old horror movies.

80 years from now they may say that's when they used to do stunts with real people. Or that's when they paid actors in movies and not just voice overs for computer generated characters.

We watched a ton of those old horror movies in the early 1970’s. Aunt Kay is a huge fan. We were kids. Slept over there about once a month with my cousins. Uncle To y left at 6pm for his shift at Chrysler in Fenton. Breakfast for dinner then horror movies, Stooges,, Abbot & Costello, Bugs Bunny, & the Road Runner.

I love the Abbott and Costello meet the Mummy and meet Frankenstein. 

I allso like the old hammer films. Watched a lot of Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing. Has anyone else seen Dracula: Prince of Darkness with Christopher Lee? He doesn't have any speaking parts in the film. Supposedly he said the scripted dialogue was terrible snd the scriptwriter states that he didn't write any dialogue for Lee. Thought that was pretty funny myself.
