Calling Dr. Karloff!

Here's Dr. Karloff in all his glory. I think this still is from "Before I Hang". I don't know that movie too well to be certain.

UPDATE: So it is looking like this still is from "The Boogie Man Will Get You". Thanks to Steve for clearing that up!

Happy Birthday Boris Karloff!

Today is Boris Karloff's Birthday. Here we see a group of pictures of Karloff celebrating his birthday on the set of "Son of Frankenstein".
