I think Béla is one of the most interesting of the classic movie monster actors. I've tried to make a poll that includes some of his best work as well as fan favorites. While I've watched a good bit of his work there are still many of his films I haven't watched yet. What are some of your favorite Béla Lugosi movies? Some of mine include The Return of the Vampire, Island of Lost Souls, Son of Frankenstein, White Zombie, Murders in the Rue Morgue, The Body Snatcher, Mark of the Vampire, The Black Cat (1934), The Devil Bat and The Ghost of Frankenstein.

Son of Frankenstein and Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein are probably my favorites, but I've never seen The Black Cat all the way through (but I have seen that ending - wow! - ).

The 1934 The Black Cat is outstanding and it's always great to see Lugosi and Karloff working together. I recently watched the 1941 The Black Cat and found it pretty underwhelming. Although it does include Basil Rathbone and I did enjoy the ending to that as well.
