    1st Edition - 1st printing.

    Edited by Gary J. & Susan Svehla.

    Starting with Edison's 1910 Frankenstein to today's modern cinema, this book stands as a testament to the durability of Mary Shelley's original novel. Whether we look at Frankenstein's Monster as the bogeyman, as metaphor, as kindred spirit, or as society's mirror, the fact remains that Mary Shelley knew not what she wrought during that haunted summer of 1816, and this volume is the latest effort in a relatively short line that tries to explain, looking at both cinema past and present, the meaning of Boris Karloff's immortal words from 1935's Bride of Frankenstein-"We belong dead!"

    Softcover, 320 pages, B&W.

    Cover price $20.00.
