Those fine horror actors

There are several names that are necessarily connected to horror movies. Some of those actors were not particularly note-worthy, for example, Bela Lugosi. However, several men whose names were connected with horror pictures were indeed very fine actors. I mention particularly Basil Rathbone, Vincent Price and Boris Karloff. Rathbone, of  course, was twice nominated for an Oscar. Price was widely recognized as a suave and accomplished actor, despite the fact that he made many horror pictures. Karloff is one of the most under-appreciated actors ever, in my opinion. Far from being only a Frankenstein, he could and did portray very gentlemanly figures.
