PAUL NASCHY´S DEAD

Paul Naschy (born Jacinto Molina, September 6, 1934,
Madrid – December 1, 2009, Madrid) was a Spanish
movie actor, screenwriter, and director working primarily
in horror films. His portrayal of numerous classic horror
figures—the wolfman, a hunchback, Count Dracula, a
mummy—have earned him recognition as a Spanish Lon
Chaney. King Juan Carlos I presented Naschy with Spain's
Gold Medal Award for Fine Arts in 2001 in honor of his work.

THE BORIS KARLOFF BLOGATHON: Day Seven

The Boris Karloff Blogathon: Day Six

Boris Karloff "An Evening With Boris Karloff And His Friends" (1967).

A cool merging of monster talent here; Forrest J. Ackerman
writes a script that Boris Karloff reads with Verne Langdon
& Milt Larsen producing! This LP is a collection of synopses
for the classic Universal films that Karloff figured in so
largely, and mixed in with his narration are sound bites and
musical cues from "Dracula", "Frankenstein", "The Mummy",
"The Bride of Frankenstein", "The Son of Frankenstein", "The
Wolf Man", and "The House of Frankenstein"; all of which must've
blown the collective minds of monster kids dwelling in the
pre-video-on-demand days of 1967. Forrest J. Ackerman's
script (famously written in one sitting) does a nice job of
stitching together all the parts, and while the whole thing
only lasts about 24 minutes it manages to give an appropriately
grand sense of status to the initial Universal horror cycle that
was then still setting the tone for most monster entertainment.

Boris Karloff "Tales Of Mystery And Imagination".





I've had several requests for this one. Seen in many different
versions, this particular LP was from Pickwick International in
1977. The Script is by Sid & Helen Frank. Music by Frank & Judy
Stein. Arranged and produced by Ralph Stein. The sound effects
were done by Myst-A-Rama / Cricketone Chorus And Orchestra.

Bela Lugosi and Boris Karloff.

The Expanded Story of a Haunting Collaboration,
with a Complete Filmography of Their Films Together.

Contributors: Gregory William Mank (author)
Format: Hardback, 254 x 178mm , 701 pp, ca. 250 photos
(12 in colour), notes, bibliography, index
Publication date: 15 Aug 2009
Publisher: McFarland & Co Inc

EAN: 9780786434800

"Dracula" and "Frankenstein's Monster" are horror cinema
icons, and the actors most deeply associated with the two
roles also shared a creative friendship. Bela Lugosi and Boris
Karloff starred in dozens of black-and-white horror films, and
over the years managed to collaborate on and co-star in eight
movies. Through dozens of interviews and archival research, this
book examines the Golden Age of Hollywood, the era in which
both stars worked, recreates the shooting of Lugosi and Karloff's
mutual films, examines their odd and moving personal relationship
and analyzes their ongoing legacies. Features include a fully
detailed filmography of the eight Karloff and Lugosi films, color
inserts of the eight movie posters, and more than 250 photographs.



>>Reviews:

"Meticulously researched (Mank has been writing on the subject of
classic horror for years and was able to interview many of the people
behind those movies of the 1930s and 1940s in the late 1980s, when
there were many more still around), and entertainingly written, this
book will stand as the final word on both actors....Mank’s book is the
best example of its type. "--Total SciFi Online

"This is an incredible book. I can barely scratch the surface of the
information and secrets that Mank has uncovered. Suffice to say that
this book is the one book you must own if you are a fan of Lugosi and
Karloff. "--Fangoria

"The Mank book, which he calls an "obsession" since his first
interviews with Lugosi's ex-wife in 1974, is meticulously researched
and more than 300 pages longer than the original. It grandly paints a
portrait of the two stars and the spooky past of Universal, Hollywood's
top scare studio of the 1930s and 1940s."--USA Today

“Explores the truths behind the mysterious Karloff and the enigmatic
Lugosi...brings to life the compelling and complicated saga of the
horror kings...add this to your shelf”—Library Journal

“Excellent...well-written and well-researched. If Mank is behind it,
you know it will be good”—Mania
