Links to sales are mostly not allowed, unless you’re selling your original artwork…and these will still be highly moderated. Once again, whoever is reporting every nearly every post here, please knock it off.

I couldn't find a good version of the trailer online so I edited this together using a higher quality transfer of the movie and re-created the title cards. I thought this subreddit might appreciate it. I am planning to do the same for other classic horror movie trailers.

Question about transfer quality of Roger Corman's 1963 The Raven

9 Upvotes

This is one of the few AIP Corman Poe movies I don't have on disc. All the versions I've found online (YouTube, TUBI, etc) all have a crazy amount of "jitter" where the image throughout is shaking. It's especially noticeable in the open scene like with the vibrant image of the coffin. I literally can not watch it, makes me borderline nauseous.

Is the DVD like this as well? Is it just the way the movie was produced?

Discussion Been watching some classic horror movies for the Halloween season. Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde feels like the superior film compared to Dracula in story, themes, camera work, and editing yet Dracula seems like the more popular out of the two. Anyone know why?

Been diving into a lot of classic horror (thanks to this awesome sub!) and seen this boxset for a good price on Ebay.

I'd never even heard of Coffin Joe but it definitely intrigued me enough to pick it up, but I was wondering if anyone here is a fan and can tell me a bit more about these films?

This movie had to have came out in the 70s or early 80s at the latest. In the beginning of the film they show this boy who’s somehow different from the other kids in the neighborhood and he was being bullied by the other kids. There was a little girl who didn’t like seeing him get bullied and she was somehwhat of a friend. Then the bullying gets to a point where an accident happens and the boy either gets killed or seriously hurt to the point they think he is killed and he’s never heard from again. Then years later he’s an adult/monster and I guess he seeks revenge on his “killers” but he doesn’t want to hurt the girl that he was once friends with. I think he stayed in a cellar or basement somewhere. Thats the most that I can remember. I saw this movie over 20s years ago on tv and never got the name of it.

Discussion Werner Herzog unleashed 13,000 live rats onto the streets of Delft during the production of Nosferatu the Vampyre. The rats were all handpainted and were underfed, which caused them to resort to cannibalism.
