My favorite has to be The Black Cat (Universal 1934) staring Boris Karloff as Hjalmar Poelzig and Bela Lugosi (his arch rival) as Dr. Vitus Verdegast. This movie has it all. Satanic worship, necrophillia, murder, torture and corruption of innocence all set in an old fortress that seems to be a mishmash of Gothic, Bauhaus and Art Deco. As for newer stuff, the trilogy thing got me thinking about a 1995 movie called Tales From The Hood. A kind of Blaxploitation horror movie staring Clarence Williams III (of Mod Squad fame). Funky & Frightening!
