    The actor who played Renfield in Dracula was outstanding!

      I agree, Dwight Frye is terrific as Renfield. Should have been nominated for Best Supporting Actor. And won.

    Great stuff. Love those old horror films. The monsters were believably human. Even King Kong had human traits.

      Thanks a lot. This is my favorite of the videos I’ve put together. It’s probably too long, but I couldn’t cut it down further. Besides, it does include brief “tributes” to Fay Wray and Dwight Frye.

      LOL! Frye was a phenomenal character actor for sure and I can see why it was a labor of love to put his offering to the genre together. This video is does the pre code horror films great justice and thank you so much for your contribution to this period of time. Those pre-code horror films were pretty risque for that time

    Kevin what are the last two clips in this video.
    (1) Screaming and armadillos (the screaming is from the King Kong soundtrack but that's not King Kong.)
    (2) Fay Wray closing the door Seductively

    • @michiganjfrog
      @michiganjfrog  4 роки тому +2

      You are the first person to point out the fun I had with the audio. (Like at the clip’s beginning, I have the Universal globe spinning with the RKO radio audio). The scream is indeed from Kong, but the armadillos are from Dracula (1931). Why armadillos in Dracula? Who knows, but they are there and always make me laugh, hence why I included them in the video. Fay, in color, closing the door is from Dr. X (1932).
