The remake of The Day the Earth Stood Still (2008) was quite a disappointment to sci-fi fans. Viewers gave it just over 2 stars at Amazon.com. That’s slightly worse than Assignment: Outer Space (1960) and more than a point and a half behind Kronos (1950). If you haven’t heard of either, don’t worry about...

“The Picture of Dorian Gray†(1945) keeps close to the brilliant novel that inspired it except for a few innovations that usually work to the film’s benefit.

Black Sabbath (1963) is a trilogy of macabre tales given brief, blackly humorous introductions by the inimitable Boris Karloff, who stars in one of them. Each tale is intensely atmospheric. The best segment by far is...
