2	The Hound of the Baskervilles (1939) more movies like this directed by Sidney Lanfield featuring Richard Greene, Basil Rathbone, Nigel Bruce, Lionel Atwill, John Carradine, Wendy Barrie Though it takes a few liberties with the Arthur Conan Doyle original -- not the least of which is turning Sherlock Holmes into the second lead -- The Hound of the Baskervilles ranks as one of the best screen versions of this oft-told tale. After learning the history of the Baskerville curse from the hirsute Dr. Mortimer (Lionel Atwill), Sherlock ... see all copies from $2.95! new only from $16.32!

We all thought that Larry Talbot (Lon Chaney Jr.), alias The Wolf Man, had been shot dead in his own starring film in 1941, but the opening scenes of Frankenstein vs. the Wolf Man prove us incorrect. ... see all copies from $5.99! new only from $11.77!

13 view cover	The High Command (1937) more movies like this directed by Thorold Dickinson featuring Lionel Atwill, Lucie Mannheim, Steven Geray, James Mason With a plot that twists like a plumber's snake, this is more a story of family secrets than anything else, in which the British commander of a West African garrison has to prevent the exposure of an ugly scandal involving his daughter.

Foster, Arthur Edmund Carewe Fay Wray screams when she first lays eyes on Lionel Atwill in Doctor X, but don't let that fool you.

19 view cover	Beggars in Ermine (1934) more movies like this directed by Phil Rosen featuring Lionel Atwill, Henry B.

20 view cover	House of Frankenstein (1944) more movies like this directed by Erle C. Kenton featuring Boris Karloff, J. Carrol Naish, Lon Chaney, Jr., John Carradine, Anne Gwynne, Lionel Atwill In many ways the most endearing of Universal's B-grade "monster rallies" of the 1940s, House of Frankenstein manages within its 70-minute time span to make room for Frankenstein's monster (Glenn Strange), Dracula (John Carradine) the Wolf Man (Lon Chaney Jr.), and a couple of new recruits, mad scientist Boris Karloff and demented hunchback J. ... see all copies from $15.00!
21 view cover	Night Monster (1942) more movies like this directed by Ford I. Beebe featuring Bela Lugosi, Lionel Atwill, Irene Hervey, Ralph Morgan More than one aficionado of Universal's horror films has cited Night Monster as the weakest of the batch. Part of the complaint lies in the fact that, despite their first and second billing, Bela Lugosi and Lionel Atwill are utterly wasted, with Atwill getting bumped off in the first reel! The nonsensical farrago of a plotline concerns a ... see all copies from $33.33! new only from $33.33!

But the defense proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that Breen could not have spoken to ... see all copies from $3.48! new only from $3.48!
23 view cover	Son of Frankenstein (1939) more movies like this directed by Rowland V. Lee featuring Basil Rathbone, Boris Karloff, Bela Lugosi, Lionel Atwill, Josephine Hutchinson The most elaborate--and longest--of Universal's Frankenstein series, Son of Frankenstein represents Boris Karloff's last appearance in the role of the Monster.
