I mean, most of the Universal monster movies are almost a hundred years old - of course they're not going to be seen as often as they used to be with so many more sophisticated horror films in their wake (to say nothing of how younger folks think that the pacing of even just 80s horror movies are intolerable - if they think A Nightmare on Elm Street 3 is slow, there ain't no way in HELL they're gonna be able to sit through Karloff's The Mummy).

Anyway, I watch all the core Universal monster flicks every Halloween, especially since the fantastic Blu-Ray box set containing those movies was released a decade ago. In fact, I'm listening to the fun commentary for Creature From the Black Lagoon as I type this.
