He Did The Mash ... He Did The Monster Mash

As you can tell from stories from this blog by now, Peter's love of horror and suspense films ranged from the completely ridiculous to pure adrenaline-inducing fun.



Apparently CBS features a gallery of Peter Steele fan pics: http://www.cbsnews.com/2300-207_162-10003137.html?tag=page


Following in this week's Monster Mash theme (Peter LOVED that song), here are more movie favorites:

Friday The 13th (Peter and Nan took us to see this one Friday nite. We walked home in the dark from the theater and then slept over Nettie's house. I don't think I ever closed my eyes that night) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gjiqwTv9yeI

He Knows You're Alone http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=293uShwU8cc

Maniac ! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NcZew9lFAgY

Prom Night  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j5pRzHJp_pM

Halloween (We saw this 5 times in one week - Peter would hum the theme music from this all the time) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ljchb1tsLfs

Our cousin Katie says there's a full length silent film, Nosferatu, which has been redubbed with TON music. It's available in several parts on Youtube, but I can never get the audio to work. Here is a snippet from the film:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l06WjpJOnrI

  1. I love a good 70's/80's slice and dice movie. Remember everyone..never have sex, you will die a gruesome death and the virgin usually survives. Does that mean sex is evil? or maybe the murderers are jealous because they are not getting any! Friday the 13th has made me hate camping. As kids we would go camping with my dad so I would make 3 people sleep in my tent and I got the middle spot (I thought it was the safest) never slept much though..too many noises. Yes I am still a chicken who scares very easily. Peter would of had so much fun with me because I jump and scream at anything. There are 3 friday the 13th's in 2012 January, April and July.

  2. I actually own that full length silent version of Nosferatu, soundtrack by Type O. It's damn near perfect. I'd love to upload it, but...I don't know how, I admit it. I suck at tech stuff.

  6. Hi Darcie,

    It so cool to read about how Peter was a true Horror movie fan and he liked the classics to! I used to do the same thing come Halloween with the TV guide. Here is a question was Peter, or his sisters, nieces, or even Nettie a Dark Shadows fan? My mom got me into it as a little girl. I have always wondered if he ever watched this. I just love that gothic, supernatural drama show. Let me know----Jessica (Black Number 1)

    p.s I love the silent film Nosferatu. I would love to hear it with Type O music. I once watched it in a play with a live band making music to movie which was very cool.

  7. Did you ever see the Monster Mash stop motion animation flick with Boris Karloff and Phyliss Diller doing the voices? The Exorcist-classic. I remember the lines for that one! Blocks and blocks of them! There is a sort of sequel to that movie, called Legion-my god that is scarier than the 1st movie and the guy who played the detective in The Exocrist plays the same part again- I mean, it's frickin' SCARY! Once, on public TV in NYC I saw a really cool flick from the 30's called, I think "Dracula's Daughter." It's got a hint of lesbian lore, and it is awesome. The sets and costumes are so creepy they're beautiful. This one is from the 30's, right after Bela Lugosi. If you can find it, check it out. Another one of my faves is "The Undead" by Roger Corman. Netflix doesn't have it, but I'm looking for it.
