[DVD Details]
 
 
  • The half-dead creature and his maniacal creator live again in this terror-ific compilation celebrating the murderous movie monster known throughout the world as Frankenstein. Lurching, growling and crashing through more than two dozen original theatrical trailers and TV appearances, the Monster and his maker are featured in the original Universal films, the Technicolor terrors of Hammer, and a selection of the most off-beat Frankie flicks ever seen. For the first time on DVD, you'll see the half-hour pilot for a TV series, "Tales of Frankenstein," produced by Hammer films in 1959, directed by Curt (Donovan's Brain) Siodmak, plus hysterical appearances by Lon Chaney and Glenn Strange with Abbott and Costello, and a clip from Chaney's ill-fated broadcast of Frankenstein on the early live TV anthology "Tales of Tomorrow."
