Cultists, there's only a handful of female Monsters in the Universal canon, and while The Bride gets most of the attention, Countess Zaleska should not be overlooked. Dracula's Daughter introduced the trope of the reluctant and conflicted vampire to the mythos and was pretty subversive for the Hayes Code era. So to celebrate the film's 90th anniversary, we're putting it on the Exam Table. Please join us for the dissection

Cultists, after the success of Curse Of Frankenstein and Horror of Dracula, Universal decided 'if you can't beat them, join them' and they entered into a partnership with Hammer Studios. The first film in that collaboration was 1959's The Mummy. It's not so much a remake as it is a Greatest Hits of plot elements from across the Mummy franchise. Please join us for the Dissection

Cultists, eager to keep their hit streak going, Universal released The Mummy in 1932. Bringing back Frankenstein star Boris Karloff, and with Dracula cinematographer in the director's chair. The film capitalized on an Egyptian craze in the era, and spawned one of horror's most enduring franchises. So before the next iteration is released from its Tomb, let's put the original on the Exam Table.

Cultists, we've been inspired by the release of The Bride! this month to put Frank Roddam's film of the same name on the Exam Table. Taking 1935's Bride Of Frankenstein as a jumping off point and bringing back several actors from Roddam's Cult Classic, Quadrophenia. The film reimagines The Monster and The Bride as star-crossed lovers to mixed results. Please join us for the Dissection.

Cultists, it's only been a couple of months but your Horror Hosts are heading back to Castle Frankenstein. In the late 1950's, Horror had largely moved away from Gothic period pieces and toward Alien Invaders and Atomic Monsters. Terence Fisher's The Curse of Frankenstein brought the Gothic back, this time in glorious Eastman Color.

Cultists, there's a handful of remakes that eclipse the original in the public consciousness. Phillip Kaufman's Invasion Of The Body Snatchers is certainly one of those. Kaufman moved the setting into the urban heart of San Francisco and gave the Cult Classic the vibe of a 1970s paranoid thriller. Giving us some of the most iconic images of 1970s genre cinema.

Cultists, it's the Seventieth anniversary of Don Siegel's Invasion Of The Body Snatchers. Something about the low budget B-Movie captured the zeitgeist of the McCarthy era, and it then later became a cult classic after its reassessment by the cinephile crowd. So it seems like a good time to put it on the Exam Table. Please join us for the Dissection.
