  • Fun Fact Lon Chaney was drunk during this scene.Because of this he broke a window three times when not supposed to. So every time they were fixing thewindow, chaney would be at the bar drinking. On the final live scene, chaney thought they were still practicing so he didn't break any of the real props.

  • Brat had it comin.'

  • This isn't a bad performance from someone who was completely tanked. I've heard this thing was a disaster of epic proportions but meh..

  • Horror novel see video book trailer

  • @bobszvetics1 You are shit.

  • @adamtr1121 Not a lot of 106 year old actors putting out quality work these days, not sure why you'd want him still alive.

  • Yeah, the blank audio at 0:37, originally had L.C. saying something like "smash door later", since he thought he was in a dress rehearsal, and needed to preserve the door for later!!! HA! Wish they would have left it in!

  • Great make up job. It looks like it came from parties unlimited.

  • CHANEY WAS DRUNK
