FishingBuds Posted October 31, 2010 Posted October 31, 2010 Because of the Halloween season I've been hit with remembering old scary movies. Just one of those things where I can't remember a old movie and its been on my mind for a few days now Im trying to remember a old horror flick but im going back to the summer of 1977 or 78. it was a scary movie in black and white and it had something to do with some people that had to take refuge in a old castle house, and there was a care tacker that was death I think in it, but the setting of the movie I believe was in early 1900's or late 1800's. but all this is to my best memory of it but, I watched this movie twice in the summer of 77 or 78 on HBO so, I have been trying key words in google search to try and find a old movie schedule on HBO back in the summer of 77 or 78. My only key to finding this movie is seeing the old schedule of HBO, if there's a site for it I'd go through the schedule and try to find the movie. There was one other scary movie that played in that time frame as well and I remember its name, it was called The Evil any horror buffs out there up to a challenge on this? sorry on the weak details but im hoping to match it up with HBO's old movie schedule back then< this is my best chance.

Super User Lund Explorer Posted October 31, 2010 Super User Posted October 31, 2010 If you're remembering an old B&W horror movie that you watched on HBO in the 1970's, it was probably an older classic from back in the days before color. Can you remember the name of any of the actors/actresses, or their screen names? Quote

It might be helpful to know when the movie was made. Was it originally a old B&W or was it retro B&W made in the 60-70's. I am always interested in good old movies. Quote

Its not Huanted hill, it was more of a Victory or gypsy look dress, and in the beginnig of the show there is a horse drawn carrige or hurst and for some reason(i forget) they decide to stop and go in this huge house, There was a crow also in a cage that had something to do with the movie, My brother made fun of me cause I couldn't ever finish the movie, and he cannot remember the name of it either. I did find this and Im gonna go thru it. Quote
Super User Bassn Blvd Posted October 31, 2010 Super User Posted October 31, 2010 It had to be the ***. Funny thing is I was just talking about that movie at dinner. I was telling friends how scary it was. And yes, there is a crow in the movie. I think Satan takes the life form of the crow but not sure. But it's not black and white. Perhaps your memory is a wee bit off. http://www.imdb.com/video/screenplay/vi2750873881/ Quote

Super User Fishing Rhino Posted November 1, 2010 Super User Posted November 1, 2010 This list might help. Horror films/movies by year they were produced. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_horror_films Quote
Super User Bankbeater Posted November 1, 2010 Super User Posted November 1, 2010 If I remember correctly, Young Frankenstein was in B&W. I think that was made in the early 70's. Quote
