In 1957 Hammer Films carved out their own place in cinema history by revisiting a classic horror tale, Mary Shelley’s FRANKENSTEIN and bringing the fabled story into a modern era with a new take on the material. With a highly original screenplay by Jimmy Sangster, splendid direction from Terence Fisher, and stellar performances by Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee, THE CURSE OF FRANKENSTEIN became an instant classic, and began Hammer’s reign as the leading producer of horror films for many years to come. Warner Bros. had the honor of being the film’s original distributor, and the relationship between Hammer Films and WB became a vital partnership between the two companies. Nearly 70 years later, Hammer Films and the Warner Archive Collection have proudly joined together to bring forth THE CURSE OF FRANKENSTEIN in an all-new fully restored 4K HDR presentation (with three different aspect ratios) and an impressive array of new bonus features, as well as legacy pieces, that will allow fans to immerse themselves in the history of THE CURSE OF FRANKENSTEIN and HAMMER FILMS as never before. In addition to the 3-disc 4K UHD presentation (2 4K UHD BD-100s, and a Blu-ray bonus disc of special features), there will also be a new 3-disc Blu-ray edition featuring the same exact content in High Definition. Both the 4K UHD and Blu-ray Collector’s editions will be available on October 14th from your favorite online retailer.

Now Playing: Switching gears from Boris to Bela with good ol Browning at the helm. From 1935, it's MARK OF THE VAMPIRE.

And to my dear pal Phillip Gwynne Jones , I think we can agree no matter the circumstances, a night with dear Bela is a grand ol time.
