3	The Black Cat (1934) more movies like this directed by Edgar G. Ulmer featuring Boris Karloff, Bela Lugosi, David Manners, Jacqueline Wells, Andy Devine, Lucille Lund The first cinematic teaming of horror greats Boris Karloff and Bela Lugosi is a bizarre, haunting, and relentlessly eerie film that was surprisingly morbid and perverse for its time.

5	Hearts in Bondage (1936) more movies like this directed by Lew Ayres featuring James Dunn, Mae Clarke, David Manners, Charlotte Henry, Henry B.

8	The Perfect Clue (1935) more movies like this directed by Robert Vignola featuring David Manners, Dorothy Libaire, William P.

Ina Claire, Madge Evans, ... see all copies from $14.99! new only from $14.99!
