Boris Karloff: The Man Remembered

Written by ilozzoc on
Horror suggests physical repulsion, disgust, and that seems to me a worthless, pointless reaction for any work of entertainment to aim at; it's so easy it isn't worth doing. An eye, say, plopping all bloody into a glass dish may provoke a gasp of revulsion when it is first seen on the screen, but this is an entirely physical thing, and something one can get used to--no doubt with a certain coarsening of one's responses in the process. The second or third time something like this happens in a film, the surprise and excitement is gone, and then you come back to the old, ... Read Full Story

Written by ilozzoc on
Trick or Treat! Now tap those feet. It's time for some really good treats! It was inevitable. With all the wonderful reviewer copies of DVDs and books cluttering up my attic office, as well as the enormous material I acquire on my own, I should have thought of this sooner. My gain will now become yours. But what's the price? You must play a game. First you must correctly answer the following devilishly difficult questions to win one of three splendidly horrifying prizes. Second, you must email those answers to me, whereupon I will place your name in the Skull o'Chance and perform the ... Read Full Story

Universal Studios Licensed Boris Karloff Frankenstein Latex Mask

Written by sundry on
Good quality but best for a short wear-time The mask is well made and easy to get on and off. The eye holes are well hidden but small. Therefore, the mask wearer should be careful since your field of vision is narrow. As with all masks, it is hot after a while. Since the "head" is long/tall, there is foam inside to fill out the top part of the head. This is very smart. The mouth hole is also a little small and so talking too much can cause the mask to get stuffy inside. This is definitely not a mask to wear to ... Read Full Story

The Hypocrites’ Frankenstein Is…Frankensteinian
Photo of Matt Kahler and Jessie Fisher by Paul Metreyeon First off, we should tell you that we’re more familiar with Mel Brooks’ “Young Frankenstein” than Mary Shelley’s original novel. Or the Boris Karloff movie. Or any other version, really. (Our apologies to the Chicagoist Literary and Film Offices if they’re ashamed of us in any way.) The point is: We fully accept that The Hypocrites’ Frankenstein may have included references that went...
