Boris Karloff: The Man Behind the Monster
An adoring appreciation of a screen icon, one of the founding figures in the birth of the horror movie.
Boris Karloff: The Man Behind the Monster
Beginning just before his debut as Frankenstein’s creation, Boris Karloff: The Man Behind the Monster compellingly explores the life and legacy of a cinema legend, presenting a perceptive history of the genre he personified. His films were long derided as hokum and attacked by censors, but his phenomenal popularity and pervasive influence endures, inspiring some of our greatest filmmakers into the 21st Century – among them Guillermo Del Toro, Ron Perlman, Roger Corman and John Landis, all of whom and many more contribute their personal insights and anecdotes.
