Monster Movie Mondays - '' FRANKENSTEIN '' (1931)
Dr. Henry Frankenstein and his assistant Fritz are fresh off stealing a body from a coffin . The Doctor wants to create a man in his image , and re-animating a corpse seems to be the ticket to that end .
During a massive Thunderstorm , a combination of the Doctor's technology and Mother Nature prove to be the fuel of life , and Frankenstein's man comes to life .
The familiar story continues , the Monster escapes , the accidental death , and the hunting down and destruction of the Creature .
The tale has been told many times , in many forms over the years , and the Creature has been featured in many spin-offs and sequels of his own .
But for my money the Universal Studios Original , with the great Boris Karloff , is the version to stick with . The first time is one you never forget .

Like Mr. Blizzo, Frankenstein is my favorite Universal monster classic, and the studio has no shortage of them. Oddly enough, no one has ever surpassed the 1931 Frankenstein as a moving telling of the story. Karloff's version is that good and immortal.

15. MY SOUL TO TAKE
The Final is After Dark's most impressive movie. More people should check it out, especially anyone who has ever been bullied often.
The Funhouse is under-appreciated by the general public. Horrorhounds have hunted it down. But, like The Final, more people could check it out.

Friday Night Frights !! '' THE STRANGERS ''
Kristen McKay and James Hoyt are in serious need of some down time . The couple have just returned from a friends wedding , where Hoyt's surprise proposal was spurned by Miss McKay . That elephant in the room that occurs when these things happen , has made everything uncomfortable , and silence in the Hoyt family vacation home is the order of the day .
The silence is broken however , by a strange encounter after the couple answer a late night knock on the door . When Hoyt leaves on a cigarette run a short time later , the bizarre caller returns , and McKay is soon in a state of panic when she comes to realize this is more than just an odd , random , encounter .
Director Bryan Bertino's film is a wonderfully realized lesson in atmospheric dread and tension , and often brings thoughts of another silent stalker Classic , John Carpenter's Halloween . Bertino's camera angles and use of light and shadow were obviously influenced by the Slasher Classic.
Scott Speedman and Liv Tyler are damn good as McKay and Hoyt , and Tyler's hysterics are genuinely convincing .
The film often draws comparisons to Xavier Palud and David Moreau's '' ILS (THEM) '' , and rightly so , there are an abundance of similarities between the two . Movie goers seem to prefer THE STRANGERS , though to be fair , ILS didn't receive a North American wide release , while ILS seems to be more of a critical darling .
Hell , it's win-win whichever way you go . Do yourself a solid and grab both for a ' home invasion ' double bill , you can thank me later .

Cool flick. Make a nice double feature with Them... the French flick, not the giant ant movie from the 50s.

Plot: Jigsaw who ? The REAL games are played by The Collector !!
Review:
To the short list of sequels that are almost or as equally cool as their predecessors (ALIENS , HALLOWEEN II , FRIDAY 13th 2 , 28 WEEKS LATER and a few others) , pencil in Marcus Dunstan's THE COLLECTION .
The mark of a stellar sequel is the ability to not only match the quality of it's source material , but in the Horror Genre , up the ante in the tension , body count/bloodshed category and bring the same humanity to the normally 'stock' characters that was evident in the first .
SHAZAM on all those aspects here Kids , in fact , the only thing that keeps this from being close to perfect is the disturbing lack of nakedness . I don't want to nitpick though , so let's move on .
Our appealing anti-hero from the original , Arkin(a wonderful Josh Stewart again) manages to escape the clutches of the madman known as The Collector . His elation is short lived however , as he's snatched from the hospital and blackmailed into leading mercenaries on a rescue mission of a millionaire's daughter .
The traps are cooler , the kills are nastier , and the opening is the sweetest mass homicide since '' GHOST SHIP '' . If it wasn't for the nudity thing , this flick would be damn near perfect .

Going through a nightmare that includes kidnapping , repeated attempts on his life , an accidental shooting and a desperate suicide attempt , Mr. Van Orton realizes with Brothers like this , who needs enemies .
