JB Administrator Member since: Oct 23, 2012 Threads: 10 Posts: 111 | The original B&W version of House on Haunted Hill is fun. This link should jump to 24:14 into the movie. Watch for a couple minutes from that point. That was my favorite part of the movie when I was young. |

Follows the Raymond Chandler book almost word for word. I bet I've seen it 15 times at least. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

The only B&W I know are old TV shows from Nick at Night and Gilligan's Island. Loved them all and would still watch them all night if they still ran like the late 80s and early 90s. I loved the innocence of all those shows. |
