I'd say 1963's The Haunting . Directed by Robert Wise. I first saw this film on TV and it scared the heck out of me. No Blood , No Guts just Atmosphere. Doors Breathing, Crying,Camera Angles and Sound. What really spooks you is the thought of what's behind every corner. It stars Julie Harris as Elea...

I agree MongoII. Between this film and 1940's "The Wolf-Man" He really lived up to the Chaney legacy.
No matter how many times they remake "Of Mice and Men". The original is still the best.

Another Great Noir by Robert Siodmak. (This guy knew Film Noir) I haven't seen this film in some time. I think it was Debra Paget's first film. You gotta love Hope Emerson. Always liked Richard Conte, I just purchased "The Blue Gardenia" with Conte and Anne Baxter.

I agree , I enjoy Roy Rogers. it might be because he was on TV when I was a kid. Gene Autry however was a little before my time. I do like him now, seeing some of his films on the Encore Western Channel.

You can't go wrong watching Dale Evans either :)
