Girls, It Is Up To You Tonight On This One!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


                                              Tonight, at 8PM, darlings, "Svengoolie" is showing 1957's "The Curse Of Frankenstein."  This was actually the first Hammer redo of a Universal classic, followed in 1958 by the far superior "Horror Of Dracula," which we saw last week.



                                                 Cushing and Lee do their customary professional work.  Poor Charistopher Lee is more encumbered here than he was as Dracula.  In this film, he has no speaking lines, and his make-up and presentation are dreadful, because Universal rightly would not allow him to replicate the Karloff look.  But couldn't Hammer have come up with something better??????????



                                                  Mary Shelly would have been appalled.  So would Elsa Lanchester!!!!!!!!!!!



                                                   If you haven't seen it, dolls, and are curious then take a look.   Those having seen it, like me, may be compelled to seek other entertainment.



                                                    How about "The On-Camera Execution Of Ghislaine Maxwell??????????????"

Victoria, Exactly. David and I saw a weird movie with Sally Hawkins called "Bring Her Back." It was disturbing.
