King Karloff


I have always had the utmost respect and admiration for Boris Karloff. My earliest memories of L.A. t.v. is of the classic Universal Horror films. Here, we see Karloff as the Satan Worshipping Hajlmar Poelzig, from the Black Cat (1934). If I could go back in time, I would have brought Boris before George Lucas and recommended him in the role of The Emperor! This kindest of souls was just plain creepy in his various roles. A Forbidden Planet salute to Boris Karloff.
