Hint #3--The letter K starts two answers.

NipkowDisc--In the 1968 re-release of "Haxan", the subtitle "Witchcraft Through The Ages" was added--this was in the second of three articles on the film on the TCM webpage for "Haxan" (1922).

You're right--and you got three of the four I thought of (the other was 1956's"Invasion of the Body Snatchers".

Name four 1950's horror films that have political themes.

Lawrence--Dark Castle is oldest--founded in 1998--only film I remember from them is "Ghost Ship" (2002).
Blumhouse is newest--They did all the "Paranormal Activity" films.
Ghost House released "The Grudge (2004)?

Lawrence--I'll have to be more specific in the future LOL.
The films I wanted were 1963's "The Haunting", with Julie Harris and Russ Tamblyn. The 1999 remake starred Catherine Zeta-Jones and Liam Neeson.
13 Ghosts (1960) Starred Martin Milner and RoseMary DeKamp. The 2001 remake starred Tony Shalhoub and Embeth Davidtz.

Correct, Lawrence.

These two horror film classics suffered dreadful remakes more than thirty years after their original release. The remakes were released just two years apart. Please name the films, and two stars of the originals and remakes.

LawrenceA--The TCM webpage for this Adaptation does Not list the director. There is a Reason I call it an adaptation, not a movie--check IMDB.
Think of a Well Known horror author.

Hint--A famous director helmed each film/adaptation.

"Slumber Party Massacre" (1982) and "Sleepaway Camp"?

Sunday, October 9th--All times E.S.T.;
7:36 a.m. "Plane Nuts" (1933)--Early Three Stooges short film.
8:00 a.m. "No Orchids for Miss Blandish" (1948)--Notorious British Noir received comments like these from British papers/magazines; 'As fragrant as a cesspool" (Daily Mirror) and "The most sickening exhiibition of brutality, perversion, sex, and sadism ever to be shown on a cinema screen" (Monthly Film Bulletin). The film made a mint. The execution is...somewhere between good and hilariously bad, depending on which review you read. TCM webpage has a nice long article on the film.
