White Zombie
The Best Picture Project Posted by Alyson on Oct 6, 2014
Horror movies can be scary in many different ways. Some are full of gruesome deaths. Others take us into a paranormal scenario our minds can’t completely comprehend or believe. Still, others are just plain creepy and make our skin crawl in wonderfully horrible ways. The pre-code era’s read more

To get an idea of the wide range of roles he played, just look at the character names: Dourfuss, Kleber, Selzer, Schlemmer, Krausemeyer, Schmidt, Kruger, read more

White Zombie (1932)
Journeys in Classic Film Posted by Kristen on Jan 8, 2013

White Zombie (1932, Victor Halperin)
The Stop Button Posted by on Nov 3, 2010
For a while, I almost thought White Zombie was going to feature a good Bela Lugosi performance. It does not. However, it does feature one of the best Bela Lugosi performances I’ve ever seen. He plays a zombie master who controls his helpless zombies (who mostly do manual labor for Lugosi at h read more
