Looks like they aim to close out Halloween with a mini-Karloff marathon. There are a few gems in the schedule here that I’d like to see (and see again), but it’s a shame that the Hammer movies and the Universal Monsters don’t get as much play these days. Today’s vampire movies should be pretty interesting, and I’m looking forward to zombie night and Karloff stuff. I need to catch ‘Mark of the Vampire’ as well, I bought it on VHS years ago, but never watched and I’m not even sure if I still have it.

TCM was the last hold out for the classics ever since AMC stepped away from what their channel was originally about (classic movies). Turner had a great Hammer showing 2 years ago, I believe it was. And while the Universal movies are all on DVD now, it’d just be nice to know you could always count on them being shown around Halloween.

I just hope Robert Osborn hosts a lot of intros to these movies. He rules.
