If you like to watch old movies and want to know the their background then this book is for you. Interesting anecdotes on making these films and how each fits into the history of Universal studios is written in a comfortable, conversational style. You'll get much history on the well known Universal movies such as Dracula, Frankenstein, and the Wolfman. But the lesser known horrors are also covered completely. This is the ultimate reference for Universal films of this period. Everything you could possibly want to know about the actors, directors, and production history of these movies are here. One negative, the authors included, in my opinion, non-horror movies that had the barest hint of horror or the supernatural. For example, all the Sherlock Holmes movies are included, which are really crime-mystery movies. A reader may find these and other reviews somewhat tedious if your true interest is the history of horror film.
A great and fascinating read from the ever knowledgeable Tom Weaver now available for your Kindle Reader. This is the best of Universal's offerings from the golden days of horror cinema featuring all the greats: Karloff, Lugosi and Chaney. Jam packed with information about all the productions on the famous backlot, insightful and fascinating for anyone interested in classic horror cinema! Great reading that will keep you glued to the screen. Tom Weaver is a veritable fountain of information and he knows everyone that was involved with the Universal classics. Buy this and learn about what it took to make cinematic history; they sure don't make them like this anymore!
The old Universal horror cycle is one I grew up with, part of the "Shock Package" released to television in the 1950s. There have been many books and magazines that did and do gaze upon this period with affection, even indulgence. UNIVERSAL HORROR is no fan book. While it's thorough, and the level of research is nothing short of impressive, the authors don't really seem to like these films very much. Awkward moments are picked out, deficiencies emphasized and dwelt upon. In the chapter on "The Invisible Ray," they go so far as to say, referring to Karloff's character, "Truth be told, Janos (sic) Rukh - socially inept, awed by women, middle-aged but still living with his mother - is the sort of Classic Horror character than many fans might regularly encounter...in their mirrors!" Nice view of your audience, good authors. The book is a true compendium of great merit and is well and breezily written, but expect to bring your own joy. For me, long a fan of the halcyon days of Universal horror, this was no problem.
Written with a loving but not uncritical view, this is an essential reference book for anyone interested in the classic Universal horror movies. A fun read and filled with facts. Highly recommended
Can get boring for people not interested in horror cinema or production stories. I enjoyed it though. It has lots of info on many movies (both famous and not so famous).
Love love love this book. So much so that I own both the hardcover and the kindle versions (nerd!). Amazing detail and history. Love watching the movies and going back and reading the chapter on the movie. Never gets old
A VERY comprehensive review of all the Universal horror films from 1931-1946. It gives a detailed synopsis of the plot and all the actors in it down to the minor roles. However I question some of the choices here. ALL the Sherlock Holmes films are listed. I consider them mysteries--not horror. Still the info about the actors and plots were interesting. Also, the authors have very strong opinions on aspects of the movies and I sometimes felt like I was being bullied into listening to them...and agreeing with them. I really disagree with them on quite a few films (especially "Son of Dracula") so it makes it frustrating reading ocassioanlly. Still the selection of photos are great, it's very enjoybale reading (more or less) and it certainly is comprehensive. A little pricey but most horror fans will find this somewaht invaluable.
