When one thinks of films before 1970, there’s a certain stigma that comes with them; stilted and theatrical acting, an old fashion way of speaking, and for whatever reason everything seems void of color. But if you give these films a chance, you’ll often find films that deal with modern themes, modern direction, and even modern acting that would easily fit in with films of the 2000s. There were a handful of actors who bridged the gap between classical acting and modern acting; namely Marlon... Read Full Story
As part of the Boris Karloff Blogathon , hosted by Pierre Fournier of Frankensteinia . I figured I'd give Ol' William Henry Pratt some recognition as far as how he wooed us women. With his swooning lispy voice and the back problems I'm sure any of us women would have died to rub out (hold your comments Office fans).

Good quality but best for a short wear-time The mask is well made and easy to get on and off. The eye holes are well hidden but small. Therefore, the mask wearer should be careful since your field of vision is narrow. As with all masks, it is hot after a while. Since the "head" is long/tall, there is foam inside to fill out the top part of the head. This is very smart. The mouth hole is also a little small and so talking too much can cause the mask to get stuffy inside. This is definitely... Read Full Story
