Oh my goodness, this is too freaking cool. I remember seeing these fifteen minute versions of famous horror movies on super eight advertised in the back of Famous Monsters of Filmland. I actually saw this one at a Halloween festivall at my high school. Back in 1971. When Ygor peaks through the window I yelled out "Ygor", and the whole auditorium cheered.. My family had a silent super eight projector, and with it came a fifteen minute version of some Abbott and Costello movie. I think it was called, Abbott and Costello Meet the Keystone cops. After we watched, we made dad run the whole thing in reverse. It was even funnier. I am really delighted to have found this channel today, and I'll be subscribing , and thank you for putting this stuff out there.
@@ddyritz I love hearing all of this so much! Those are great memories. I’ll keep my eye out for that A&C film and get that uploaded too if I can! Thanks for watching!
Interesting thing about this Universal 8 movie is they use a shot not seen in the movie or the trailer. I am referring to the shot where Basil is sitting in his chair just before Lionel Atwill enters the room. It looks like it's a deleted shot. I may be wrong but I don't think so. 😮
Lugosi's performance in this movie is the most underrated in film history.
@@randyjohnston-x9h absolutely up there!

@@markastor9413 I definitely hadn’t heard about or noticed that! I’ll have to keep my eye out next time I’m watching the full length!
