This must be a generation issue. I am so surprised that very few people watched this video and wrote a comment during the last eight years. When I was growing up, there was just ABC, CBS, and NBC, as well as PBS. When I was in junior high, everyone was saying, “Cable is coming! We will be able to watch many more stations and lots of sports.”
Before cable, during the summer months, we would watch “Dialing for Dollars” Monday thru Friday at 1 p.m. and “Creature Features” every Saturday night at 9 p.m. Back in the 1960s, these old movies were our television staples, as well as an umpteen number of westerns. I truly enjoyed this movie! I never saw this one before.
When I was a kid Bela Lugosi's movies scared me to death. What a wonderful movie! I'm glad to see Mr. Lugosi did this great dark comedy spoof because I suspected him throughout the movie because he's Dracula forever in my mind! Thanks!
This movie was hilarious. I loved it. The whole time I kept thinking Bella coffee was poisoned and he kept trying to give it to them, lol then it wasn’t in the end…
Too hilarious.
RIP Bella Lugosi.
Dracula versus The Tin Man. I've seen this film before, and it's a pleasure to watch it again. Thanks Pizza.
Thank you
Every time I hear Jack Haley speak, all I hear is the sweet calm voice of the Tin Man. Great to see Mr. Lugosi as something other than ol' snaggletooth. ❤
Jack was so iconic as the 'Tin Man' in OZ, it's really hard imagining him as being anybody else !
PizzaFlix you always have the best old movies. Thank you!
Jack Haley was really great and Bela Lugosi one of the best actors, good movie
Jack Haley is an American Treasure if an actor n comedian. He is a classic!!! Bela Lugosi is creepy just watching him drop off a tray of spiked coffee n backing out of the room!!! He is the quintessential horror movie persona n just by lurking about even without talking he emotes evil intention n a monsterly sort of way. Yet and still he afds to the underlying humour of the film 📽️!!! Excellent group of actors in a VERY creepy house!! GREAT late night movie fir Friday night!!! Thanks for posting!!!🤐🦉🦇🏚️🎑⚰️🏺🗝️🔎⚱️🔮🪦
Gee: Thank you for the information about Bela's end and Frank Sinatra 's paying burial expenses. I didn't know that. Loved him in Dracula and other movies but he is the quintessential Dracula for me and millions of others.
Thanks.
I wouldn't call most murder mysteries delightful.
But this one might qualify! The humor was soooo well done.
Him in that towel; Pulling the fish out of his coat... I was able to laugh, and that has great value! Thanks again (:
I loved the percolated vs drip coffee quip with Jack identifying himself as a drip!
I loved Mr. Lugosi's films. He was the ultimate Count Dracula. Jack Haley was a talented man. This was a funny film, very enjoyable. My second time around for this one.
"I am scared! What do you think I'm shaking of....enthusiasm?"
I really love this kind of "horror" 😨 movies.
Thanks for uploading and cheering up my day
Greetings from Germany 🇩🇪 (next to dutch border).
Cute! Silly!, A really large red herring and a few goldfish. Fun to see Jack Haley as the male lead and, ahem! hero!
I always love watching this movie.. Thank you so much for Sharing. Its 12:38 am on a Sunday morning.on April 14 th
Just about gets the chills and giggles about right. Thanks for posting.
This is great 40's fun! I love Bela! As a child my dad set up his reel to reel and screened Dracula for us. Enjoyed Bela in several since: a Charley Chan flick, a noir thriller, his moments in Plan Nine, etc. The Corpse Vanishes is 1 of my favs, especially the MST 3000 version. Love the Dorothy Lamour/Rebecca Lake reference. And "This place gives me the creeping meemies" and all the rest of it. Thanks for posting. And Bela is the backwards walking master! "Such fine coffee."Isn't it." "Oh. "Albert!" lol
I remember reading a article about Bela Lugosi's funeral. Vincent Price and Peter Lorre walked by his open casket and Lorre stopped and asked Price, "Do you think we ought to drive a stake through his heart, you know, just to make sure?"
He was even great in comedy with Abbott and Costello
SOS too much dark
@@pamczech5984And the East Side Kids.
Loved this classic comedy! Great cast! Thank You
Jack Haley was such a delightful actor. And Bela Lugosi has always been a favorite. An enjoyable film.
There's a lot of old movies about being trapped in a house with a monster or a murderer, but it usually comes down to the actors. Often the 'funny' characters were too over the top or there were a crew of hardboiled detectives who thought they were really cool and funny with their wisecracks but they weren't funny at all. Lugosi was always the perfect creepy guy and Haley was clearly good at transferring his vaudeville comedy to the silver screen. (Compare that to, say, Bob Hope [whose stand-up on T.V. was funny] in the 1939 Cat and the Canary, which wasn't all that funny compared to the 1927 version with Creighton Hale. The 1941 movie The Black Cat was another adaption of it and the guy who's supposed to be funny is like an exaggeration of Lou Costello without the Abbott and without Costello's baby face, so he almost ruins the movie. The plot and Basil Rathbone save it.)

What people thought was funny then is different from now. Humor has a fashion, too, and things were different then.
@@lisahinton9682 To an extent, but much of the comedy that was popular then was more successful and still consumed by people today who like old movies/shows. Your Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis, your Laurel and Hardy, your Charlie Chaplin, etc.
@@MaliceInCandyland totally agree about the guy in the black cat, can't watch it now because of that stupid, affected giggle. The rest of the film is really good though, so it's a shame.
I have to take exception about the Bob hope cat and canary. Love that film from start to finish. Best creepy house horror in my opinion. Ghost breakers is another classic.
What a delightful movie~ NOBODY wants to drink poor Bela's coffee.
Never gets old, that heirs-trapped-in-a creepy-house-fearing- death plot. Good to see Lugosi doing great in a running-gag role knowing he was enduring decades of unsteady employment, destitution, drugs, alcohol and headed toward a 4-yr collaboration with Ed Wood. Still a respected icon; wish he had known.
What the heel are they hiding
That was great one! Thanks for uploading it🙋♀️
It's sad to know that Bela Lugosi died broke and that Frank Sinatra paid for funeral expenses. A man like Bela who did much to entertain us. Rip sir
In the dark again
His son did well in the industry
What I read was that two of his wives paid for the coffin, headstone, funeral, etc on Wikipedia.
Boris Karloff gave roo. Meanwhile, Sinatra's so called friend Sammy Davis Jr died, totally broke and he deserted wife when she asked for his help. He ignored her and the burial problems too. But Bela Lugosi, he worked so hard for his producers etc, Hollywood should have paid. Best charactor acter.
Does anyone knows why he was always broke..? He was a heroin addict.
Boy that coffee sure made the rounds! Some hilarious lines in this.
Love ❤️ this classic movie you won’t see movies like theses again thank you 😊
Peter Lorre and Vincent Price went to his funeral ....seeing him in the coffin in his Dracula costume...Lorre said " Do you think we should maybe drive a stake though his heart...just in case?"
alot of good actors on here a great movie thank you guys your awsome
Amazing movie. My mom would have loved this.
It could be an Abbot and Costello film. Costello in the role of Mr. Tuttle, of course.
I liked how Tuttle wanders from one room to the another only wearing a towel.
The producers of this film should have made more comic/mystery movies with the Mr. Tuttle character. It really works!
I’m going to write my last will and testament like that. Beautiful writing.🤣😂
Best Bela Lugosi story!
GREAT MOVIE LOVE ALL BELA LUGOSI MOVIES HE IS THE BEST APRIL 13 2019
Each movie keeps getting better
A delightfully tongue in cheek, campy creepy movie, replete with things that go "Bump" in the dark. Very cool fun! Bela plays the "Butler", can you guess who did it? Buahahahaha!
thank you fr posting, good one.
Great premise for a movie!
good movie. Lugosi the best
God I love these old movies
L.p. m
im just 28 and me too! like much better then the most of modern movie
Mick Ryles God I love the Old Testament. get the nostalgia??
" PARODY.... I started watching THIS expecting It to be an old Horror flick. Instead, It turned out to be a ' dark comedy ' . "
I didn't realize that Frank Sinatra paid for his funeral. When Bela and his wife had their son, Frank Sinatra paid the hospital bill. Bela Lugosi was very poorly treated by Hollywood. He also was one of the founders of the Screen Actors Guild.
An excellent film. Well worth a visit. Enjoy. England, August, 2023.
Thank you 😁
Bela Lugosi and the coffee LOL
Good ole spook movies. Always show up on the late show especially around Halloween. Good ole filming in the dark. Wonder if this qualifies as film noir? Just needed a little more comedic hook. The tin man (Jack Haley) done good though.
I liked the movie 🎥🍿 That insurance guy looks like one of the guys who played in the old Wizard of Oz with Judy Garland 🤔
Jack Haley. He played the Tin Man.
Thank you
Thanks pizza Flix. 👌👌👌👌👌👌👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Both are buried at Holy Cross Cemetery in Culver City, CA.
My favorite part of the movie was when the butler and maid drank coffee together! LOL
Such fine coffee. Good movie.
Silly fun, but, why didn't anyone want Bella's coffee? LOL @PizzaFlix another "saucer"!
A comedy with Bela.....enjoyed it.(ls)
Mebbe it's the direction his career should'a taken!
And the part of Mrs. Folgers was played by Bela Lugosi
LOL And it's the richest kind! At least Bela got to have a sip of the brew finally. He fought so hard for his coffee.
@@lisafields4811 good one
😂
What a classic a great plot fantastic acting absolute gem ❤😂❤😂❤😂❤😂❤😂❤😂❤😂❤😂❤😂❤😂❤😂
Too bad the producers of these old movies did not have a few more dollars to buy light bulbs.
Gust Durham Another wonderful movie!
Thanks for the upload.xd
What a wonderful old movie... "Would you like cup of coffee?" Lol...
Yes i need a cup of coffee
"No thanks, I'm a drip"
Imagine, drip coffee back in 1944! ☕
BEAUTIFUL............ANYTIME!
Omg the tin man out of the wizard of oz .,. Great film
It was the astrologer. He said that he was viewing Venus during the thunderstorm
Great movie!
I own this movie it came in the Box Collection of those 50/100 pack of Horror or Thriller Movies.
I would like to own the box of horror pictures like Evelyn way to go my girl Peace DNRackard
Hammer horror are better tbh
Lyle Talbot! interesting bio. Founder of SAG, along with others.
A great modern twist on this kind of film is Ready or Not, htough the premise differs a bit it's still a stuck-in-a-big-house-with-famil- money-on-the-line-until-morning flick, though more survival horror and darker comedy.
Haley also known for the Tinman in The Wizard of Oz. If only the movie wasn't as dark, it's difficult to see what's happening.
In "Treasure Of Fear", he is a bumbling reporter who (backhandedly) solved a mystery and captured the murderer.
great old time movie , if you only served pizza too
All this movie is missing is Bud Abbott and Lou Costello :)
Check out "Abbott and Costello Meet the Killer Boris Karloff". The two films have much in common but Costello plays scared better than Jack Haley and has a disbelieving Abbott to play off of.
There are too many rats in this house...
Bela, Jack Haley it has to be a winner
Noir. Thunder storms, lights go out, a stolen body, an unresolved Will.
21:45
"But the constellations are changing. Venus is approaching Jupiter! There might be an occultation!"
That coffee was laced... ole boy was trying to kill them all...
No, he never did put the rat poison in it. That was the point. That's why he & the maid drank it at the end.🧛🦹
I remember watching this movie when I was on Mars in 1753. 📺📺🎥🎥🎦👽👽👽👽👾👽👽👽👽
Never suspect who done it! Good mystery.
Fun movie!
I kept waiting for Mr. Tuttle to say "put 'em up, put 'em up I ain't afraid of you'
Mr. Tuttle was the tin man , not the cowardly Lion.
@@kennnethmitchell7650 oops,thank you : )
didn't know legosi made so many films other then dracula
Yeah, hollycrap exploited poor Bela but never gave him his due.
Any love for Dorothy Granger?
very funny movie. Pizzaflix is due it own app.
This is pretty standard hack stuff, but I still like it :)
Is that Ozzy Nelson’s neighbor?
"What about the murderers?
"Let them catch their own fish." 😆😂
I also read that Bela was buried in his Dracula costume and of course Jack Haley as the tin woodsman a part he was able to have as the result of the original actor buddy ebsen was allergic to the material they used to make him silver good choice Jack Haley was the best tin man not a bad movie good combination of actors
Is that the Tin Man from Wizard of oz?
He was hired to replace Buddy Ebsen who was allergic to the silver paint
Then there were none !?🤔🙄
PizzaFlix you've done ot ahain ☕⚰️☕⚰️☕⚰️☕⚰️☕
To converluted plot twists and acting that makes one wish for the silent era again. If only Cecil B Demil could direct such picture an huge number of extras needed to save this abomination from the trash-can of oblivion. Waiting patiently for the 1x5x9 monolith to appear an anthropomorphic forward borrowing from Kubrick would improve the last scene…
For some reason, Jack Haley makes me think of Danny Kaye.
I’ve not seen this one before...a little corny but still entertaining
A decent little movie. Another waste of Bela Lugosi's talents, though, in a minor role.
*Paul Schmutz almost ruined this tense thriller which had a decent script and good acting as well as competent direction.*
Bella Lou Gocci.
Creature features! Isn't that the one with the six-fingered hand that comes up out of a swamp? 😂
So how was the money divided up? Who got the $1.50? LOL
02:45 Talk about telling it how it is 😂😂
yurka good actres.
X favor con subtitulos en español
Hahaha “ I’ve been scared since 8:30”
Its the lion in wizard of oz!
