That's why I suggested The Mummy, I've seen those 3 quite a lot already and Wolfman was the last one I watched.

Can i suggest The Skull?

Cushing, Lee, Wymark, De Sade, excellent direction by Freddie Francis. Easily the best thing Amicus ever released!

Sounds good, I don't have it but I can rent it from Amazon! Definitely a contender. only 83 mins too.

A Universal Horror I can suggest..
THE OLD DARK HOUSE (1932)
Perfect for a Halloween viewing.

Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man? The Old Dark House? Freaks?

First of all the transfer is stunning . Still my favourite of the phantasm film with its disjointed atmosphere, the tall man is a chilling character, I do think these films are marmite films that people will either like or dislike. Only downside all the films could do with more balls. 9/10

Next up either funnyman which I've not seen or Waxwork.

The Phantasm films definitely need more balls!

As in flying ones but also the brazenness to use them to give the audience a kick to the bollocks rather than the pathetic tickle that Coscarelli offers.

I've just finished watching Get Out, a beautifully constructed and deeply affecting drama with psychological horror running throughout, a little like The Skeleton Key, but better. It was a rental on Amazon Video, but one where I'll buy the physical copy.

Sticking with Amazon, I've just started watching Addams Family Values, a film I last saw at some point in the 1990s!

Thanks for the suggestions everyone, you need to consider that it's a Sunday night and I don't have everything However I'll definitely look at those others for the rest of the month. Particularly The Old Dark House which is one that I've wanted to see for a while, does anyone know of the most decent copy?
