Ep. 140: The Curse of Frankenstein (1957) or ‘A Matter of Blood & Bosoms’

Zach welcomes back Amy Cornell (Hammer Fan/ Ballyhoo Correspondant, ‘The War of the Worlds’) as the two take the BallyBOO across the pond and into the depths of Bray Studios as they unpack the terror unleashed there by Hammer Films in 1957: THE CURSE OF FRANKENSTEIN!

Join our monster loving hosts as they asses the status of Hammer in a pre-gothic world, shudder with them as they learn of the many hoops and hurdles taken to get the film made, gasp as they do when finding immense depth and characterization backed into less than 90 minutes, and finally depart with them to safe passage with the many lessons and legacies the film and its studio have had on our film world today.

PLUS: We reveal to the world Christopher Lee’s greatest fear.
