In 1956, England's Hammer Film Productions changed the face of modern day horror films forever, when they made their color version of the Frankenstein story, bringing together for the first time the Hammer team that would make some of the best and best known horror films of the next two decades - stars Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee, director Terence Fisher, producer Anthony Hinds, cameraman Jack Asher, production designer Bernard Robinson. They would provide a look and a new visceral approach to classic horror that made fans of us "monster kids" for generations to come. Writer Bruce Hallenbeck explores the making of
The Curse of Frankenstein with interviews with Peter Cushing, Anthony Hinds, Terence Fisher, and more, complete with behind-the-scenes photography. Also, Ted Newsom looks at
Tales of Frankenstein, Hammer's failed attempt to make a Frankenstein series for American television. Plus, interviews with Peter Sasdy and actor Shane Briant.
