Icons of Horror Boris Karloff provides ad-free streaming of 12 films and TV shows in which horror icon Boris Karloff appears. Karloff is not always a major player - in Dynamite Dan, for example, he appears only briefly at the beginning and end of the film - but any true fan will want to watch all the films in which Karloff is an actor. The videos available on this channel are listed below and range from silent films of the 1920s through a low-budget Mexican horror film released in 1971.
