As well as Gargoyles, featuring Grayson Hall.  [thumb]

(I loved When Michael Calls as a kid. I wonder if it still stands up?

I also loved the PBS version of Dracula...

On the other hand, I didn't like Salem's Lot at all...)

Wonder why they changed the name When Michael Calls to Shattered Silence on the DVD release. Oh I have to see it again. Oh yes Grayson Hall! I liked Salem's Lot as a kid. Maybe David should have sang a song in the original. lol The remake was worse in my opinion.

Pretty good list, actually. Hell of a lot better than that ridiculous Top 10 Vampire TV series list.

Oh my God, the Salem's Lot remake - Rob Lowe had the SAME EXPRESSION throughout the entire movie. God was it terrible. I actually liked the original.

Anyone seen that version of Frankenstein? Any good?

Tayelor, would you believe there's a topic about it?  The title is deceiving because it was an alert to see Curtis' version before it was learned that AMC made an error and was actually showing "Frankenstein: The True Story":
Topic: Dan Curtis' FRANKENSTEIN airs Sat. 7/27 on AMC.
Anyway, if you hang with it, a few members give their take on the movie.
