Elsa Lanchester achieved cinematic immortality with her iconic portrayal of the Bride of Frankenstein in the Universal horror classic. But her work in the realm of monsters was just a part of her long career on the stage and screen - a career that included two Oscar nominations and a dozen films where she co-starred with her husband Charles Laughton. We'll hear the couple in a Suspense adaptation of "The ABC Murders" (originally aired on CBS on May 18, 1943) and in a true crime historical drama from Columbia Presents Corwin ("The Moat Farm Murder," originally aired on CBS on July 18, 1944). Plus, Elsa Lanchester leads an all-female cast in a Suspense thriller set at a girls schoool - "Finishing School" (originally aired on CBS on December 30, 1943).
Mary Shelleys 1818 erschienener Roman "Frankenstein oder Der moderne Prometheus" gilt u.a. als die allererste Science Fiction Geschichte. Die Verfilmung von 1931 gab dem SciFi-Horror-Genre sein wohl berühmtestes Film-Monster, in Gestalt von Boris Karloff... Wir folgen einem roten Faden, der sich seit Jahren zwischen Dem Sumpf und Data seinem Hals hin und her spinnt, der uns zuletzt in die Geisterwelt Captain Blackbeards geführt hat und der uns über Blackbeards Urenkelin, gespielt von Elsa Lanchester, zu der Schöpfung künstlichen Lebens, den Urahnen aller Androiden, also zu den Filmen "Frankenstein" (1931) und "Frankensteins Braut" (1935) bringt.

In this episode, we're taking a journey back to the eerie roots of horror cinema by exploring the thrilling world of Pre-Code horror films of the 1930s. Joining us is Leslie, a dedicated podcast host, photographer, and true horror fanatic, ready to share insights into some of the most iconic films that defined this genre before Hollywood's Production Code put restrictions on content. These pre-code films were daring, experimental, and unafraid to push boundaries, introducing audiences to terrifying monsters, dark themes, and twisted characters that would shape horror for generations. We begin by delving into the legendary classic Dracula (1931), where Bela Lugosi's portrayal of the Transylvanian vampire set the standard for cinematic horror. Leslie sheds light on how Dracula brought an air of sophistication and dread to horror, with its haunting atmosphere and Lugosi's unforgettable performance, making it a cultural icon and solidifying the vampire as one of horror's most enduring creatures. Next, we turn to Bride of Frankenstein (1935), James Whale's masterful sequel to the original Frankenstein, which brought a new level of emotion and complexity to the genre. Leslie discusses the film's exploration of loneliness and creation, its stunning visual style, and Elsa Lanchester's portrayal of the iconic Bride, who became a symbol of both beauty and horror. The Bride's brief yet powerful presence left a lasting impact on horror cinema and expanded the scope of what horror characters could represent. We also take a closer look at Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (1931), with Fredric March's Academy Award-winning performance showcasing the duality of human nature. This adaptation of Robert Louis Stevenson's story was one of the first to depict the terrifying transformation of a man into a monster, both physically and psychologically. Leslie shares thoughts on how the film's groundbreaking special effects and dark exploration of identity and morality pushed the boundaries of horror and captivated audiences with its chilling take on inner darkness. For honorable mentions, we discuss other unforgettable films from the era, such as King Kong (1933), a film that combined adventure with horror, captivating audiences with its impressive visual effects and tragic monster. The Black Cat (1934), starring horror legends Bela Lugosi and Boris Karloff, offered a disturbing tale of revenge and occult themes. The Invisible Man (1933) showcased Claude Rains' brilliant performance as the unseen terror, while Island of Lost Souls (1932) delved into themes of science gone wrong with its haunting depiction of genetic experimentation. In closing, Leslie reflects on how these films from the 1930s laid the groundwork for the horror genre, challenging societal norms and fearlessly exploring themes of the monstrous and the unknown. The legacy of these pre-code films lives on, inspiring countless filmmakers and horror fans today, as we continue to revisit these dark classics that dared to push the limits of cinema in a way that still resonates nearly a century later.

Give online therapy a try at betterhelp.com/BENEATH and get on your way to being your best self.” ** The 1950s was a real transitional decade for classic films. As we got further away from WW2, and the Cold War began to rise up prominently, there was a cynicism across the land that influenced the content of many Hollywood movies. Films took on a grittier, more realistic feel, and the subject matters were darker and more controversial. It was the decade that sparked masterpieces like “Sunset Boulevard,” “All About Eve,” “From Here To Eternity,” “Cat On A Hot Tin Roof,” “A Streetcar Named Desire,” “Anatomy of a Murder,” “ Strangers on a Train,” “Shane,” and “High Noon.” Listen as Steve and Nan talk about some special 1950s films that inspire them.

Bride of Frankenstein (1935): Directed by James Whale, this classic horror film stars Boris Karloff as the Monster and Colin Clive as Dr. Henry Frankenstein. The story follows Henry Frankenstein, who is coerced by his former mentor, Dr. Pretorius (played by Ernest Thesiger), and his original creation, the Monster, to create a mate for the Monster. Despite his initial reluctance, Henry eventually constructs the Bride (portrayed by Elsa Lanchester). However, the Bride rejects the Monster, leading to a tragic and fiery conclusion. The Bride (1985): Directed by Franc Roddam, this film reimagines the Frankenstein story and stars Sting as Baron Charles Frankenstein and Jennifer Beals as Eva. Unlike the original Monster, Eva is physically perfect and human-like. However, she is repulsed by the Monster (played by Clancy Brown) and rejects him, leading to a series of dramatic events. The cast also includes Geraldine Page and David Rappaport.

We're back with another entry in our Double Feature series! This is where we talk about two films that have some sort of connection (either in reality or in our minds). This episode is pretty straightforward, as Ashley & Matt discuss two 1960s Disney movies starring Hayley Mills!
Bryan and Dave are joined by Tyler Hyde, co-host of the That's Spooky podcast to close out their 2024 Pride series and talk about James Whale's 1935 Magnum Opus, Bride of Frankenstein. It's an absolutely gonzo gothic horror from the dawn of the talkies featuring more thrills and excitement in one of the earliest sequels that somehow manages to end up a better movie than the original. Bride of Frankenstein is a high-energy affair packed with unbelievable characters and performances from some a-list weirdos of their era such as Ernest Thesiger as the sinister Doctor Praetorius and the lovely Elsa Lanchester playing duo roles and Mary Shelley and the iconic Bride who, despite your expectations, occupies the screen for a scant few minutes but still manages to leave a powerful mark on the history of film. There is also a deeply queer interpretation of the movie which begs the question, was this subtext intended by James Whale? Was it purely subconscious? Are we just reaching? --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/bring-me-the-axe/message
Arguably the greatest sequel of all-time, as the Monster learns to speak and experience human emotions. Starring Boris Karloff, Elsa Lanchester, Colin Clive and Ernest Thesiger. Directed by James Whale.
Another slam dunk from director Billy Wilder, Witness for the Prosecution is the combined genius of humorous Wilder, a brilliant cast, and the world's favorite mystery writer, Agatha Christie. Witness for the Prosecution may not be the most famous of Agatha Christie's film adaptations, but it was her favorite one! Skillfully interwoven flashbacks, colorful supporting characters, and a great ending make for one of the best courtroom dramas ever to be shown on the silver screen! Listen to Robin and Lisa gush about another favorite.https://www.instagram.com/realoldreels/

We're back to finish our discussion on THE BRIDE OF FRANKENSTEIN. We had a lot to talk about this week, including the abundance of religious iconography present in this film, along with the myriad of ways the Hays Code took a hatchet to this movie but a ton of cheeky humor and themes still slipped through. We discuss the first true villain, the absolutely delicious Doctor Pretorious (Doctor Pretorius?) and how he offers the gateway to the many queer themes and suggestions that are front and center here. We talk the lovely Elsa Lanchester and how she makes a meal out of her five minutes of screentime as the Bride remains one of the most iconic fixtures in horror history. It's the second part of massive episode so make sure you go back and listen to part one. Mike is joined by cohosts Brian and Stephen along with special guest Ygraine from the What a Scream podcast, Ghouls Magazine, and the Moving Pictures Film club.

This week we're back to discuss what some have called the greatest horror movie of all time, and what might be the birth of queer cinema: THE BRIDE OF FRANKENSTEIN. In the years following Frankenstein's success, James Whale would go on to put his campy, humorous touch on horror classics The Old Dark House and The Invisible Man before returning to create his masterpiece. Meanwhile Boris Karloff elevated from a struggling bit player to receiving top-of-the-bill status in a string of successes. Of course, no discussion would be complete without discussing the immeasurable impact Elsa Lanchester made with mere minutes of screen time as the titular Bride. With her lightning bolt updo, and a hiss inspired by protective swans, Lanchester delivered one of the most memorable monsters i Universal cannon. The sequel adds humor to the gothic horror, and goes bigger in every way: there's a larger body count, a larger cast, more elaborate sets, and even more fantastical special effects. We're joined by guest Ygraine (What a Scream Podcast) for the first half of our two-parter on Bride.

In her only first-billed feature film role, in Passport to Destiny, Elsa Lanchester plays an indomitable charwoman who embarks upon a self-appointed mission to assassinate Hitler after coming to believe that she's magically protected, while in None But the Lonely Heart, American playwright Clifford Odets' directorial debut, Cary Grant plays a Cockney dreamer who struggles with the reality of lower-class life during the Depression after trying to settle down and take care of his dying mother. We discuss the similarity in style and subject matter between None But the Lonely Heart and the poetic realist films of 1930s French cinema, and the curiosity of this underrated art movie being made by RKO so soon after its infamous entanglement with Orson Welles' similarly grim and poetic Magnificent Ambersons. If you've ever wanted to hear Dave start crying by recounting a crying scene, this is your chance. Time Codes: 0h 00m 45s: RKO in 1944 0h 05m 12s: PASSPORT TO DESTINY [dir.

NOTE: Due to some technical issues, this episode meant for July 28th isn't being uploaded until today. Sorry for the delay! In this bonus episode, I'm sharing my favorite Suspense shows starring Academy Award-winner Charles Laughton. One of the most frequent guests on "radio's outstanding theater of thrills," Laughton made ten visits to the program and his appearances rank among some of the series' best. First, he co-stars with his wife Elsa Lanchester in an adaptation of Agatha Christie's "The ABC Murders" (originally aired on CBS on May 18, 1943). Next, in "Wet Saturday," he's a wealthy patriarch whose weekend is ruined when his daughter bashes her ex-lover's head in (originally aired on CBS on December 16, 1943). Laughton meets a man who may have invented a way to get away with murder in "The Man Who Knew How" (originally aired on CBS on August 10, 1944) and he plays one of history's most notorious killers in "Neil Cream, Doctor of Poison" (originally aired on CBS on September 17, 1951).

The more we look back on early Hollywood, the more certain we are in declaring that MOVIES ARE GAY. Movies Are Gay not just in June but 24 seven, 352 days a year. Cultural repression of adult sexuality is a terrible thing but sometimes we can look back with modernity on our side and realize what many likely missed when they first watched Boris Karloff and Elsa Lanchester in James Wale's 1935 sequel “Bride of Frankenstein”. What they might have missed was that this movie is very very gay and also very very fun. From the baddie bey, Doctor Septimus Pretorius to The Bride who rejects her arranged union, this movie has a lot of subtext. At least that's what we projected onto it. Shout out to Minnie, the goofball baddie and Valerie Hobson, the 28 year old 17 year old. We belong dead.

On this show, our specialty is sequels, sequels, and more sequels. From the good ones, to the bad ones, to the really ugly ones, we'll be covering them all! We've got homicidal maniacs that won't stay in the grave, sci-fi epics whose stories cannot be told in a single tale, and much much more. For our 21st episode, we are tackling our first Universal Horror movie from 1935 with the legendary "THE BRIDE OF FRANKENSTEIN". Directed by the also legendary James Whale and starring horror icon Boris Karloff as The Monster. Also starring Colin Clive, Dwight Frye and Elsa Lanchester in a dual role as Mary Shelley and The Bride. This first follow up to Universal's mega-hit the OG 1931 Frankenstein is arguably one of the greatest classic horror sequels of all time. In this Gothic tale the titular Dr. Frankenstein builds the Monster a mate which has disasterous results. Join our host Cameron Scott and first time co-host and pop culture/horror enthusiast Matt Hageman as they dissect a classick favorite black and white horror gem. "To a new world of gods and monsters!"
"My school is the streets. And looking down the barrel of a pointed revolver is my teacher.” Murder By Death (1976) directed by Robert Moore and starring Eileen Brennan, Truman Capote, James Coco, Peter Falk, Alec Guinness, Elsa Lanchester, David Nivens, Maggie Smith, Peter Sellers, Nancy Walker, James Cromwell, Richard Narita and Estelle Winwood. Next Time: Cache (Hidden) (2005)
"The rats don't run this city. We do." Willard (1971) directed by Daniel Mann and starring Bruce Davison, Sondra Locke, Elsa Lanchester and Ernest Borgnine. Next Time: Murder By Death (1976)
Of all genres of film, few genres match horror for giving strong roles to women for as long the horror genre has. Elsa Lanchester, Bette Davis, Janet Leigh, Jamie Lee Curtis, Sigourney Weaver, Dee Wallace and Neve Campbell… all examples of actors who portrayed women of strength and power. In a genre that so many associate with women in peril, these women reminded audiences that not only could a woman survive the night, she could do so with depth and ferocity. Our guest today is one such actor. Though she has worked in a wide variety of genres, she has earned her place in the horror hall of fame through her work with filmmakers like David Lynch, J.S. Cardone and Mary Lambert. Always challenging, mysterious, unexpected and grounded in the role she is portraying, she is an actor that demands your attention as soon as she enters the frame.Spill Your Guts is pleased to have Lori Heuring with us today.Lori is an actor whose work we have always greatly admired. There's an intrinsic strength and integrity she brings to her work. She's played many different kinds of characters and all of them are unique and different. Some of them good, some bad and some in between and Lori always finds the in-road to creating a character that we end up rooting for.This has a lot to do with who Lori is as a person. Lori is a caring, razor-sharp, funny, genuine thoughtful person and she compels filmmakers to cast her in roles that show those qualities in the role. Though she's of course beautiful, this ain't your gal if you're looking for the archetypal slasher fodder.Lori and Kevin discuss her formative years developing her craft while growing up in Texas, why she is drawn to working on darker stories and why she enjoys the challenge of working on edgy, independent films over big studio projects.Kevin had the great privilege of directing Lori in Lineage, where her tremendous talent as an actor was also matched by her equally tireless work ethic.So, let's get into what it takes to become a Scream Queen with Lori Heuring.Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast.

Welcome to The B-Side from The Film Stage. Here we talk about movie stars! Not the movies that made them famous or kept them famous, but the ones that they made in between. Another year, another Halloween! This year we tackle the performers who played the titular monsters from the seminal Universal Studios monster movies of the ‘30s, ‘40s, and ‘50s. To take on such a task, we brought back our good pal Gavin Mevius, talented editor and co-host of the incredible The Mixed Reviews Podcast. Be sure to listen to their podcast and support them on Patreon if you see fit! Specifically, we examine a B-Side from Bela Lugosi (Murder by Television), Claude Rains (Crime Without Passion), Boris Karloff (Juggernaut), Elsa Lanchester (Passport to Destiny) Lon Chaney Jr. (Eyes of the Underworld), and Ben Chapman (Jungle Moon Men). We examine why Claude Rains was one of the few to escape his monster persona, and what makes Elsa Lanchester such a natural star (despite her career in character work). We also get into some of the more torrid elements of each star's life – from troubled beginnings and career woes, to the Hollywood blacklist and good old-fashioned gossip – spot checking a few short docs and TV appearances straight from the source along the way. Come for the (many) Minnie Driver shoutouts, stay for James Cagney as Dracula! Be sure to give us a follow on Twitter and Facebook at @TFSBSide.

It's our Halloween episode AND our season one finale which begins with a visit to the Old Witch's lair where every bong rip could be your last. Big thanks to Tigger Franklin for her witchy cackle. It's a family affair here on OMFYS--a Franklin family affair. Our two films come from the 1930s, possibly the greatest decade for horror, but is it? We get into that before we get into our movies and weed recs. Cory comes out strong for the 1980s while Bob champions the classic monsters of the 30s, Greg makes the case for the sci fi 50s, and Philena urges us not to overlook Blumhouse and other 21st Century pleasures. Our first film is the quintessential classic BRIDE OF FRANKENSTEIN (1935), from the classic monster movie studio Universal and director James Whale. You've got Boris Karloff coming back as the monster and Elsa Lanchester as the iconic Bride that's inspired so many tattoos. We talk about the movie for over 45 minutes so I'll just let you listen. We go a little long here but it's our last episode of the season, and Cory tells Bob that people are way into long-assed podcasts now! To show the depth of horror in the 1930s, we contrast Bride's high camp and top production values with Danish director Carl Theodor Dreyer's more run-and-gun VAMPYR (1932), a haunting piece of low budget film making that often feels like somebody jammed a camera into your brain and filmed your worst nightmare. We wrap up with some reflection on our first season, and hope we can get our shit together for a Holiday Special. Please email us at old moviesforyoungstoners AT gmail dot com and remind us to stop gorging on Thanksgiving turkey and record a damned holiday ep. It'll help. And a note of apology here. We meant to have this ep online over a week ago but Bob had to take a trip to the hospital while he was half way through editing it. He's fine now, which is evident from this episode being here, and remember he got all the good drugs while he was away. HAPPY HALLOWEEN and see you in 2023. Hosts: Cory Sklar, Bob Calhoun, Philena Franklin, Greg Franklin Old Witch: Tigger Franklin Old Movies for Young Stoners theme and Funky Frankenstein by Chaki the Funk Wizard. Bride of Frankenstein is streaming on Criterion Channel, Peacock and tubi, and TCM will be showing it on Halloween itself. Vampyr is streaming on Criterion and HBOMax. Weed is at your local dispensary.
As spooky season is in full swing, the Frightful Four begin on the Where to Stick It Podcast! This year we kick things old school, then new school. First up 1935's The Bride of Frankenstein starring Boris Karloff and Elsa Lanchester, followed by 2022's Hocus Pocus 2 starring Bette Midler, Sara Jessica Parker, and Kathy Najimy.
Welcome to It's A Wonderful Podcast!! Arguably their favourite episode of the main show since the last Retrospective episode looking at different versions of Beauty & The Beast, Morgan and Jeannine kick off their October of Horror on this show with masses of killer rats and one rather hilariously sweet Michael Jackson song as they take a look at the Willard movies: WILLARD (1971) starring Bruce Davison, Ernest Borgnine, Elsa Lanchester & Sondra Locke; BEN (1972), its direct sequel putting more chaotic focus on the central leader of the rats; and the remake of the first movie, WILLARD (2003) starring Crispin Glover in the title role!

With the imminent release of Baz Luhrmann's big screen biopic, It Happened One Year checked the 1967 release schedule and found not one, not two, but three big movies starring the King of Rock 'n' Roll, and figured it was high time to give them a watch. They aren't Elvis's best films, they aren't his best known films, but they are all, in their own odd ways, fascinating hunk-a hunks of entertainment - Double Trouble, Easy Come Easy Go, and Clambake! With such luminary co-stars as Elsa Lanchester, Bill Bixby, Michael Murphy, Pat Harrington, Pat Priest, Will Hutchins, and Shelley Fabares, these films are long on talent, very long on musical numbers, and murky on plot! Listen as Sarah & Joe recount their Elvis connections, detail the highlights of visiting Graceland in Memphis, rate the films on a scale of one-to-five hip gyrations, and spotlight the most ludicrous tacked-on song in each production.
Welcome to It's A Wonderful Podcast!!

I talk to my pal John DiLeo. His new book is wonderful. It's amazing how little time these performers had on screen, but they make HUGE contributions to films. WE did about ten...starting with Elsa Lanchester in her appearance (and it wasn't even close to ten minutes and five seconds) in The Bride Of Frankenstein. It's an iconic role and that film and Elsa will go on forever. We talked some really wonderful performances. It was very hard for me to choose. Thanks so much to the fab John. I always enjoy talking to him. His love and knowledge of movies is contagious. Mostly thanks to the listeners.

Following our discussion of Elsa Lanchester and her iconic role as The Bride of Frankenstein, we wanted to take another look at another one of her iconic films, this time, Bell, Book, and Candle. In the film, Gillian is a shop owner--and a secret witch. Using her occult powers (and her cat familiar, Pyewacket), Gillian sets out to woo her neighbor, the handsome and engaged Shep, using a love spell. Elsa Lanchester stands out in her role as Gillian's magical Aunt Queenie.
