In fact, I watched TTFAW last weekend on Youtube, and was set to watch Them! when my wife protested I was hogging the computer.<br /><br />I remember seeing Them! as a youngin' at my grandparents' country house and it scared the bejeezuz out of me. During the day I was fine, but I felt like there were gigantic ants lurking behind the treeline at night.<br /><br />And of course, the other picks were great as well.RayRayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08718037136482754673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8470604276410220159.post-90348775424365401412009-08-26T09:56:17.880-04:002009-08-26T09:56:17.880-04:00Great list, and you did a good choice on including...Great list, and you did a good choice on including Les Diaboliques.

However, I did like the 1980's remake of Invasion of the Body Snatchers slightly better than the original. The 1990's remake was shite, in my opinion.

As the last of the great Universal monsters, I do think Creature from the Black Lagoon deserves a place here but I can't think of what I'd bump in favor of it - maybe Curse of Frankenstein.Jeff Allardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04265550466781988388noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8470604276410220159.post-91542120605938932422009-08-26T06:48:57.563-04:002009-08-26T06:48:57.563-04:00Great list!

An excellent list! <br /><br />My own list of favorites would include REVENGE OF FRANKENSTEIN (1958) — it would be my #1 — and THE MUMMY (1959), which I think is an underappreciated gem.Pierre Fournierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16109698812799559366noreply@blogger.com
