"Freaks" is a black and white classic directed by Tod Browning in 1932.  Browning used  people with real deformities.  Shocking in itself.  The story is the classic story of love for gain....the rich midget..falls in love with the beautiful girl.  She marries him for his money....you have honor with the freaks but none with the beautful woman....this movie will truly scare you...unfortunately a lot of the orginial was cut and has been lost.....you can catch it on tv on occasion on often...check out your dvd store...and dont watch it with the wee ones....

5 stars out of 5 stars

I love this movie !!! my parents taught me to love the classics !

scared me to death .... have you seen "white zombie"

Made the mistake of watching this by myself when I was a teenager around 1am...totally freaked me out. My favorite from that era is Cabinet of Dr. Caligari.

White Zombie's a good one too.

Interesting review. Thanks!!

Great movie. Have it on VHS.

No, I'm not that old. LOL

dreamin i will have to look for that movie....sounds interesting...

that is *so* weird you posted that... i just woke up from the absolute longest night terror ever about being chased (for years) by an obsessed midget. kind of like chucky, or the terminator.
