Well, FRANKENSTEINIA’s Boris Karloff Blogathon will be over today and I had a great deal of fun watching it through the whole week… / / To remind you what all this was about, beginning on November 23 — Karloff’s 122nd birthday — and on through the 29th, bloggers far and wide were invited to post something about Boris, his life and his wide-ranging career. / Here’s my own blog post contbuting to the project, which is really nothing compared to those much impressive stuff posted throughout the week… / I thought some links would be good to share… Here’s a scanned in excellent quality interview of Boris from Castle of Frankenstein, Issue 24, 1974, posted by Deadilicious / At the amazing Groovy Age of Horror, Curt Purcell offers up sample pages from the Dell Comics adaptation of the movie Die, Monster, Die, that was very loosely based on H.P.Lovecraft’s The Colour Out of Space”. The Boris Karloff Collection posted various interesting stuff during the blogathon, an excellent review of James Whale’s Old Dark House among them. On Scared Silly ,devoted to horror comedies, there’s a wealth of Karloff material that Paul Castiglia ran all week. Here’s the 10 Essential Karloff performances according to Psychobabble Brilliant illustrator Rob Kelly was inspired by the project to create a special Karloff PSA. Magia Posthuma is a blog devoted to the serious study of vampires in history, fiction and popular culture. Niels Petersen examines the folkloric and mythological roots of the horrors depicted in Isle of the Dead (1945). From Boris Karloff Thriller No. 1, the comic book that would morph into Boris Karloff Tales of Mystery, here’s The Hand in the Wall posted by The Horrors of It All / A Karloff commercial posted by Richard Sala Here’s 23 great Frankenstein 1970 screen caps by Obscure Hollow A much interesting article called Boris’ Other Bride on The Lightning Bug’s Lair Screamstress posts some great tube videos about Boris. Love Train for the Tenebrous Empire offers some tiny paintings of the man, Art Trading Cards executed in watercolor paint on paper. Awesome! Day of the Woman offered THE UNCANNY WOMEN OF BORIS KARLOFF in some wonderful photos! I could go on for hours, there’s stuff in the blogathon that could keep you reading and watching for a whole month. Thumbs up for FRANKENSTEINIA and Pierre Fournier for this excellent proposition for such an event! Loved it from start to finish! I almost forgot, there’s also Pierre’s photo blog called MONSTER CRAZY full of jaw dropping photos that none should miss. / Here’s one of them… / / Happy birthday Boris Karloff!
