Book Synopsis The Bride of Frankenstein by : Elizabeth Hand
Download or read book The Bride of Frankenstein written by Elizabeth Hand and published by Dark Horse Comics. This book was released on 2007 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Attempting to create life through dreadful experiments, Henry Frankenstein and Dr. Pretorius instead created unspeakable horror: two misshapen monsters, a brutish male and his female mate, stitched together from the bodies of cadavers. Crafted to be the monster's bride - an undead Eve to an equally accursed Adam - the female creature was destroyed mere minutes after taking its first breath - or was it? This new novel by the critically acclaimed Elizabeth Hand reinterprets the memorable characters from Universal Picture's classic 1935 film for a new generation of horror fans. Detailing the bride of Frankenstein's secret history, from the shadows of forgotten laboratories to the streets of Weimar Germany, Hand creates a richly atmospheric tale of horror, mystery, and tragedy as chilling as the creature itself. Elizabeth Hand's novels and short story collections include Mortal Love, Black Light, Bibliomancy and the cult classic Waking the Moon. A longtime contributor to the Washington Post Book World and the Village Voice Literary Supplement, she lives in Maine.
Book Synopsis The Laughing Dead by : Cynthia J. Miller
Download or read book The Laughing Dead written by Cynthia J. Miller and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2016-05-20 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hybrid films that straddle more than one genre are not unusual. But when seemingly incongruous genres are mashed together, such as horror and comedy, filmmakers often have to tread carefully to produce a cohesive, satisfying work. Though they date as far back as James Whale’s Bride of Frankenstein (1935), horror-comedies have only recently become popular attractions for movie goers. In The Laughing Dead: The Horror-Comedy Film from Bride of Frankenstein to Zombieland, editors Cynthia J. Miller and A. Bowdoin Van Riper have compiled essays on the comic undead that look at the subgenre from a variety of perspectives. Spanning virtually the entire sound era, this collection considers everything from classics like The Canterville Ghost to modern cult favorites like Shaun of the Dead. Other films discussed include Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein, Beetlejuice, Ghostbusters, House on Haunted Hill, ParaNorman, Scream, Vampire’s Kiss, and Zombieland. Contributors in this volume consider a wide array of comedic monster films—from heartwarming (The Book of Life) to pitch dark (The Fearless Vampire Killers) and even grotesque (Frankenhooker). The Laughing Dead will be of interest to scholars and fans of both horror and comedy films, as well as those interested in film history and, of course, the proliferation of the undead in popular culture.

Download or read book It's Alive! written by Gregory W. Mank and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's Alive! is a comprehensive and entertaining account of Universal's classic Monster series. It reveals the studio politics, the shameless publicity gimmicks, and the sheer Hollywood madness that made the eight films of Universal's Frankenstein saga the most successful and widely viewed horror films ever produced. It examines the personalities and analyzes the special contributions of such great horror stars as the gentle, mysterious Boris Karloff, the proud, tragic Bela Lugosi, the erratic Lon Chaney, Jr. It provides descriptions of unrivaled detail and accuracy of the ingenious makeups and the strange series of set accidents that are part of the legend and lore of these remarkable motion pictures. The book contains richly detailed production and cast credits, the most exhaustive ever published on these films. There are full synopses of all eight films, a feature sure to inspire nostalgic recollections among the legions of late-night viewers who habitually search the TV listing to see if one of their favorite Frankenstein films is playing--again. Complete production histories furnish an insider's view of how all that film magic was created. Film historian Gregory William Mank conducted numerous exclusive interviews with series survivors, adding a moving and informative personal dimension to his book. Readers get firsthand information from such central figures as Charles Barton(director of Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein), leading ladies like Elena Verdugo (House of Frankenstein) and Josephine Hutchinson (Son of Frankenstein), screenwriter Curt Siodmak (who wrote the screenplay for Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man), Lugosi's ex-wife Lillian, Karloff's daughter Sara Jane, and the "Bride of Frankenstein" herself, Elsa Lanchester. An entire chapter, entitled "Denouement," details the strange fates and tragedies that awaited many veterans of the Frankenstein series. And an extensive Biographical Appendix covers the careers of virtually every significant participant in the films. A section on later Frankenstein films demonstrates the lasting impact of this classic horror theme and evaluates the more recent pictures in relation to the great prototypes. The authoritative and readable text is visually supported by over 150 illustrations: portraits, stills from the various films, candid set photographs, and poster reproductions--many never before published. It's Alive! The Classic Cinema Saga of Frankenstein colorfully and factually presents the total, candid, revealing history behind one of the most beloved of motion picture series. It is an invaluable reference volume that also promises hours of pleasure reading. -- Inside jacket flaps.

Book Synopsis Frankenstein’s Bride by : Hilary Bailey
Download or read book Frankenstein’s Bride written by Hilary Bailey and published by Sourcebooks, Inc.. This book was released on 2007-10-01 with total page 513 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With Mary Shelley's Frankenstein included—two tales of terror in one! In this chilling sequel to Mary Shelley's famous tale, Hilary Bailey imagines what might have happened if Frankenstein had created a female companion for his monster. The story begins in 1826 when a wealthy, young man by the name of Jonathan Goodall is introduced to Dr. Frankenstein, now living in London with a wife and small child. Jonathan soon becomes Frankenstein's helper and friend but, when Frankenstein's wife and child are brutally murdered, he becomes entangled in a horrific unfolding of events. Hilary Bailey's gothic prose is constructed with uncanny fidelity to Shelley's original style, as she describes the frightful consequences of Frankenstein's tampering with the laws of nature. Also included is a foreword by the author that describes how Lord Byron and Mary Shelley each agreed to compete and write "a ghost story" and why Shelley won. "In this chilling and intelligent sequel to the never-forgotten story, Hilary Bailey imagines what might have happened if Frankenstein had made a woman, a bride, for his male creature. Bailey plays on the fear of the monstrous, compassionless woman and also plays with it . . . Icy, atmospheric and riveting." Observer, UK national Sunday newspaper "Icily convincing... Hilary bailey lets the implications of a new story look after themselves. Without fashionable recourse to the erotic or the feminist, she is mistress of the melodrama" Mail on Sunday, UK national Sunday newspaper "Frankenstein's bride makes Frankenstein's monster look like a pussycat."

Book Synopsis Father of Frankenstein by : Christopher Bram
Download or read book Father of Frankenstein written by Christopher Bram and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: James Whale was the most brilliant director of horror films Hollywood has ever seen, director of such classics as Frankenstein and Bride of Frankenstein (and indeed every horror film rated with four stars in Halliwell's Film Guide). But he was by no means a typical Hollywood product, both because he was English and because he was openly gay in the Hollywood of the 30s. Christopher Bram's moving and powerful novel portrays Whale in his last weeks of life in 1957, overwhelmed by images of his past, his working class childhood in Britain, Hollywood premieres in the 30s, friendships with Elsa Lanchester, Charles Laughton and Elizabeth Taylor. Consumed by the contrast between his past and his present obscurity, he conspires with his young gardener to provide his life with the dramatic ending it deserves.
