Eight-disc set includes: Dracula (1931)After starring in the title role on Broadway four years earlier, Bela Lugosi became forever identified with the quintessential vampire, Count Dracula, of Bram Stoker's 1897 novel. Director Tod Browning's Gothic film adaptation follows the bloodsucking Dracula from his Transylvanian castle to England as he ensnares the unwary in his diabolical schemes. With Dwight Frye, Helen Chandler, David Manners, Edward Van Sloan. 75 min. BW/Rtg: NR Frankenstein (1931)Based on the novel by Mary Shelley, this classic chiller helped usher in the age of the Universal monsters. When mad scientist Henry Frankenstein (Colin Clive) pieces together body parts taken from various corpses with hopes of creating life, his resulting production (Boris Karloff, in a career-defining performance) demonstrates the consequences of toying with nature. With Mae Clarke, Dwight Frye; directed by James Whale. Restored version; 71 min. BW/Rtg: NR The Mummy (1932)One of the all-time classic chillers, with Boris Karloff playing the title role of 3,700-year-old Egyptian high priest Imhotep, condemned and buried alive for sacrilege by his people. Brought back to life when an archeological dig uncovers his tomb and a scroll that can revive the dead, a resurrected Imhotep attempts to reunite with the reincarnation of his lost love (Zita Johann). David Manners, Arthur Byron, Edward Van Sloan, Bramwell Fletcher co-star. 75 min. BW/Rtg: NR The Invisible Man (1933)He's rarely seen in this, his film debut, but Claude Rains lends a sinister presence as H.G. Wells' "out of sight" scientist in this horror/fantasy classic from "Frankenstein" director James Whale. Rains stars as Dr. Jack Griffin, who discovers a formula that can render him invisible. But little does he know that it carries with it a dangerous side effect: It also turns him into a murdering madman. With Gloria Stuart, William Harrigan, and quintessential town biddy Una O'Connor. 71 min. BW/Rtg: NR Bride Of Frankenstein (1935)Boris Karloff's back and Elsa Lanchester's got him in one of the greatest horror films ever made. Revealed to be very much alive, Dr. Frankenstein (Colin Clive) takes the next step in his quest to unlock the mysteries of immortality when he's convinced by mad scientist Dr. Pretorius (Ernest Thesiger) to construct a mate (Lanchester) for his brutish creation (Karloff). Valerie Hobson also stars; directed by James Whale. 75 min. BW/Rtg: NR The Wolf Man (1941)"Even a man who is pure in heart and says his prayers by night, may become a wolf when the wolfbane blooms and the autumn moon is bright." Classic chiller stars Lon Chaney, Jr. As Larry Talbot, a man marked with the sign of the beast. Returning to his family's Welsh ancestral home, Talbot is the recipient of a lycanthropic curse when he's attacked by a vicious werewolf. With Claude Rains, Evelyn Ankers, Bela Lugosi, and the ever-wizened Maria Ouspenskaya. 70 min. BW/Rtg: NR Phantom Of The Opera (1943)Winner of two Academy Awards, this lavish Technicolor retelling of the horror classic stars Claude Rains as Enrique Claudin, a violinist whose face is scarred by acid during a dispute with a music publisher over a concerto he composed. From beneath the Paris Opera House, the disfigured Claudin becomes consumed by his obsession with Christine Dubois (Susanna Foster), a beautiful and gifted singer. Nelson Eddy, Hume Cronyn, Leo Carrillo also star. 93 min. C/Rtg: NR Creature From The Black Lagoon (1954)In this Universal horror classic that spawned two sequels, a team of scientists on an expedition down the Amazon to find a link between land and sea animals discovers more than it bargained for in the form of a water-breathing, half-human gillman... and soon the hunters become the hunted!
