That's cool! I love the series, though I didn't get to see it during its original run. My oldest sister was a huge fan and would watch it after school.

My parents would take us to the drive-in to watch movies when we were little kids and the first scary movie I remember seeing was Psycho and the second one was Whatever Happened to Baby Jane. I believe the drive-in showed them a few years after they first came out.

The first horror movie I remember seeing at the drive-in, was either The Manitou, or the Invasion Of The Body Snatchers remake.

The original "Night of the Living Dead." Me, my brother, and a few of our friends saw it at the Mayland Theater in Mayfield Heights, Ohio.

My first movie I saw in theaters was a horror/suspense movie: "Willard", in 1972.

I remember watching Psycho and Whatever happened to Baby Jane on TV with my Dad when I was a kid. Also, Alfred Hitchcock's The Birds!

"Frogs" at the Rivoli theatre. I remember cashing in some pop bottles for the money to see it. Only seen it once but bought the dvd about 10 years ago and it is still in the shrink wrap. The part that stood out was the tipsy old lady and her butterfly net?

Bride Of Frankenstein is one of my favorite horror films. Turner Classic Movies used to always run the Universal horror films during October, but they don't seem to be doing that this year.
