Best Horror/Fantasy Film of 1930's
There are so very many choices that could go on here, however, I've whittled them down to a mere twenty for the sake of argument. Most of these are acknowledged classics but which one stands head and...

The toughest choice of all eras. My absolute favorite horror film of all time is SON OF FRANKENSTEIN, but there are too many films that are better.

I would have to say King Kong, with Bride of Frankenstein a close second. In fact I consider those two films (along with the 1954 Japanese monster film Gojira) to be the greatest monster films period.

Island of Lost Souls is a personal favorite for atmosphere, plot, characters and dialogue. Not fair that I have to choose between that and milestones like King Kong and Bride of Frankenstein. It's...

As do I. I like to be a bit contrary sometimes, but you just can't argue with quality like that.

No votes at all for Mystery of the Wax Museum? I love that film. It sure isn't the non-stop thrill fest that King Kong is, though. Also, more of an ancient German expressionist style downer. Now I'm...

KONG. BRIDE and others are classics, and I love many of them. But KONG is the CITIZEN KANE of fantasy films.

BRIDE OF FRANKENSTEIN, followed by FRANKENSTEIN, THE INVISIBLE MAN, THE OLD DARK HOUSE. Strangely (?) from the same director...
