Toochis, I can appreciate your point of view, but did they even consider asking Sara Karloff, Bela George Lugosi and Ron Chaney? And what about Gloria Stuart or Carla Laemmle** or even Tim Burton? In looking over Taylor Lautner's IMDB bio, it seems that he has very little background in horror films. I'll give the young man credit for working hard, but it would have been far more respectful to a genre that gets no respect to have this segment introduced by people with more gravitas. And who was responsible for compiling this montage? Where was Val Lewton in all this? Why all the slasher film stuff? Badly done from start to finish.
