Boris Karloff news, related photos and videos, and reviews of Boris Karloff performances. According to Wikipedia: Boris Karloff was an English actor, who emigrated to Canada in the 1910s, best known for his roles in horror films and the creation of the Monster in 1931's "Frankenstein". His popularity following "Frankenstein" in the early 1930s was such that for a brief time he was billed simply as "Karloff" or, on some movie posters, "Karloff the Uncanny".
Frankenstein's Monster Takes a Break
I love these pics of Boris Karloff (William Henry Pratt). I was a huge fan of the Universal monsters of the 30s, especially Frankenstein's monster and the wolfman. And they scared me. Of course, that was a long time ago, when I was 38 or 39. Hard to imagine these movies being scary anymore. But here are a few pics of Karloff getting made up and taking a smoke break. During one interview Karloff says the makeup process took 4+ hours and he remembered one day of shooting that lasted 25 hours (okay, that's longer than a day, what are you going to do about it?) and he was in full makeup for the entire time.
who's scarier, Karloff or the makeup artist?
Note the cig in his hand
