Labor Day Appreciation

In honor of Labor Day, we will take a look at the busiest and unluckiest assistant of them all.  Daniel from "House of Frankenstein"!  (played by J. Carrol Naish)

"My name's Daniel.  You can travel with us!"

"Friend Daniel, I'll build you an adonis."

"It made me angry when they whipped her."

"You're pretty!"

"She hates me because I'm an ugly hunchback."

"Can I have Talbot's body?"

Here comes the Bride!

Elsa Lanchester as the Bride of Frankenstein!  

Lanchester never looked better.

An amazing, yet simple make-up.

The Bride of Frankenstein!

-"Darling.  Say those 3 loving words that I'm dying to hear."

-"Buy a wig."

"Your left hand shows your past, your right hand your future."

"Son of Frankenstein" - 70 Years Old

I wanted to post something about "Son of Frankenstein" since it is celebrating its 70th anniversary this year.  In 1939, a comic was released showing the "Son of Frankenstein" story.  Here is that comic:

Feast your eyes upon his accursed ugliness!

The Man of a Thousand Faces!  Lon Chaney did his own make-up for all of his great characterizations.  His best by far: The Phantom of the Opera!

"Do you think I need braces?"

"That's the last time I watch a dirty movie!"

"Would you like a tug of my material?"

"Oy vey!  I wasn't voted prom king..."

"But I got the prom queen!  Stay away from her!"

And he never will.

Yvonne some more?

Yet another birthday is celebrated today in the world of horror.  Yvonne De Carlo, aka Lily Munster, would have been 87 today.  Enjoy.

"Thinking about my Herman."

"Don't say a word.  Spot may wake up and he has a hot temper."

"Oh how young we look.  We were only a couple

hundred years old then."

Your all American family

"Herman likes it when dead weight is sitting on him."
