“THEY CAN’T POSSIBLY ASK
for a sequel now!” one of the
screenwriters of The Curse
of Frankenstein thought
when that film ended with
Dr. Frankenstein being led to the
guillotine. “But they did, and we
had to devise a way for him to
escape the blade.” His solution?
“Oh, we sew his head back on
again!” The result was 1958’s
The Revenge of Frankenstein (this
page), the first of many sequels
that finally ended with 1974’s
Frankenstein and the Monster
from Hell (opposite, bottom).75RO
