The Cat Creeps (1946 film)
The Cat Creeps is a 1946 suspense thriller released by Universal Studios starring Lois Collier and featuring Noah Beery, Jr. The movie was directed by Erle C. Kenton and is not to be confused with" The Cat Creeps", a 1930 lost early sound film that was a remake of the silent horror film" The Cat and the Canary".

Starring Helen Twelvetrees, Raymond Hackett, Neil Hamilton, Lilyan Tashman, Jean Hersholt, Elizabeth Patterson, and Montagu Love, it is considered to be a lost film.
Midnight Faces
Midnight Faces( 1926) is a silent film starring Francis X. Bushman, Jr. and Jack Perrin.
The film is an" old dark house" murder mystery in the same genre as" One Exciting Night"( 1922)," The Ghost Breaker"( 1922)," The Bat"( 1926) and" The Cat and the Canary"( 1927).
Critic Christopher
Workman called it" a thoroughly unmemorable entry in the run of old dark house horror comedies.
( Director)
Cohen handles the material with an almost intentional absence of style, atmosphere and wit ...
Even at less than an hour, the film drags interminably."
The Cat and the Canary (1979 film)
The Cat and the Canary is a British mystery horror comedy film directed by Radley Metzger released in 1978.
It is the fourth film adaptation of John Willard's 1922 black comedy play of the same name, following the versions from 1927, 1930 and 1939.
The Cat and the Canary (1927 film)
The Cat and the Canary is a 1927 American silent horror film adaptation of John Willard's 1922 black comedy play of the same name.
Directed by German Expressionist filmmaker Paul Leni, the film stars Laura La Plante as Annabelle West, Forrest Stanley as Charles" Charlie" Wilder, and Creighton Hale as Paul Jones.
The plot revolves around the death of Cyrus West, who is Annabelle, Charlie, and Paul's uncle, and the reading of his will 20 years later.
Annabelle inherits her uncle's fortune, but when she and her family spend the night in his haunted mansion they are stalked by a mysterious figure.
Meanwhile, a lunatic known as" the Cat" escapes from an asylum and hides in the mansion.
The film is part of a genre of comedy horror films inspired by 1920s Broadway stage plays.
Paul Leni's adaptation of Willard's play blended expressionism with humor, a style Leni was notable for and critics recognized as unique.
Leni's style of directing made" The Cat and the Canary" influential in the" old dark house" genre of films popular from the 1930s through the 1950s.
The film was one of Universal's early horror productions and is considered" the cornerstone of Universal's school of horror."
The play has been filmed five other times, with the most notable in 1939 starring comedic actor Bob Hope and Paulette Goddard.

One Exciting Night
One Exciting
Night is a 1922 American Gothic silent Mystery film directed by D. W. Griffith.

The success of both the Mary Roberts Rinehart and Avery Hopwood play" The Bat"( 1920), as well as the 1922 stage play" The Cat and the Canary", led Griffith to write and produce his own variation on the theme, which in turn led to the production of similar" murder mystery/ old dark house" films such as" The Ghost Breaker"( 1922), previously filmed by C. B. DeMille in 1914," The Bat"( 1926) based on the play," Midnight Faces"( 1926)," The Cat and the Canary"( 1927)," The Old Dark House"( 1932) and even the fabled" London After Midnight"( 1927) with Lon Chaney.
At the time of this film, Henry Hull was starring on Broadway in the stage version of John Willard's" The Cat and the Canary".
