TALES OF FRANKENSTEIN

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".
