Issue 6 includes:

  • Glenn Strange – in rounding off the Universal Frankenstein series, this cowboy-turned-monster played a key role in the franchise, but what kind of legacy did he leave behind? Our in-depth article looks at his lasting contribution to the horror genre.
  • Inner Sanctum – Universal’s thrillers took Lon Chaney Jr on a journey into the dark corners of the mind, and made a lasting contribution to the world of psychological horror.
  • Quatermass – Hammer’s movie series took Nigel Kneale’s story into bold and horrific territory – join us in celebrating this remarkable motion picture trilogy.
  • Evelyn Ankers – though popularised as a horror pin-up, this skilled star was more than just a pretty face… find out why in our biography.
  • Monster Music – from sampled music to original scores, horror film soundtracks aren’t just about screaming. We explore the relationship between monsters, movies and music.
  • Them! – one of the all-time big bug classics comes under the microscope with our exploration of this movie’s enduring appeal.
  • Dark Eyes of London – ugly and unsettling, this Bela Lugosi shocker has much to recommend it in this issue’s Forgotten Frights feature.
  • And so much more too!

  1. Phillip Boak, Yorkshire, UK

    Yet again, a brilliant issue, nice articles about the Inner Sanctum films and Glenn Strange.

  2. NA Parry

    Really nice edition as always. Good to hear some well deserved appreciation for Glenn Strange, and also The Dark Eyes of London, which is a genuinely disturbing film and richly deserves a ‘proper’ DVD release. Thanks for reminding me how great it is.

  3. Clay Cortinas, San Jacinto, CA

    Brilliant, especially Evelyn Ankers & Glen Strange articles. You should really look into an article on Paul Blaisdell as he is another rarely mentioned, unsung hero. He really made 50’s sci-fi fun.

  4. Jamie Tutino, Connecticut, US

    Love the recent issues I have received. Your magazine is the absolute best #1 source for the monster movies I love and cherish!

  5. Thomas Smith, Illinois, US

    The issues look GREAT!!

  6. Anthony Rubbo, Georgia, US

    I finally had time this weekend to read several of the guidebooks, and they are a treasure chest of info and painstaking research – I love them!!!
    Well-designed, great paper stock that holds up to continuous readings, illuminating bios on every actor, crisp photos, fun fact files, etc. – a wealth of new + old reminder info to be treasured forever.
    Commend everyone for these gorgeous tomes. Really…

    Your wonderful Classic Monsters collection is great and brings back many memories for me(I’m 64) I remember staying in the cinema all day watching the Hammer films when they showed them as a double and at one time a triple bill(Those were the days) There was one cinema that showed all the universal Frankenstein films all week then followed the next week with the Dracula films, Wolfman, and the Mummy films. Thanks to Blu Ray I can see almost all of these great films in their glory, And thanks to you all for bringing out this wonderful collection I now know everything about these films. I hope you will continue to add more films to your collection(I hope to get them all,if I can) My greatest actors are Sir Christopher Frank Carandini Lee, Boris Karloff(William Henry Pratt), Peter Wilton Cushing, Vincent Leonard Price, Jr., John Christopher Depp II(Johnny Depp), Donald Pleasence, and the great Bela Ferenc Dezso Blasko, better known as- Bela Lugosi.

    I’ve subscribe to this fantastic magazine since issue 1, I have been waiting for a horror mag like this for years and now I can look forward to my issue coming through my door, it has everything you could want great photos, stills and fantastic stories, keep up the good work and may it continue for years to come.

    Classic magazine! On the same level with “Famous Monsters of Filmland” which itself was one of the classic magazines. I have never seen such great quality in a fan related magazine like “Classic Monsters”! Every page on glossy paper, with many in color! The Classic Monsters are very LUCKY to have such a great publication appreciating their greatness! LOL

  10. Clayton Cortinas

    Mr. Horne is rapidly becoming one of my two favorite cover artist, the other being Arliss of Freaky Monsters. His rendering of Glen Strange on this cover absolutely puts in the same class as the legendary Basil Gogos. Keep them coming sir!

    These books are AMAZING !

  12. Steven Beai, Colorado, US

    I’m absolutely thrilled to see CLASSIC MONSTERS going bi-monthly and I just can’t say enough about the quality of every single item produced, from the mags to the film books, sticker sets and beyond. Not to mention the care taken with shipping every product — and did I mention how grateful I am for the stellar customer service you provide — from the regular updates to the personal replies to inquiries.

    As a fan and collector of all things classic monsters for over 40 years, I am fortunate enough to have one of the largest collections of monster magazines dating back to the ultra-rare UK one-shot of SCREEN THRILLS, as well as complete runs of every Warren magazine (Famous Monsters, Eerie, Creepy, Vampirella, etc.), I can say with absolute authority there is nothing like CLASSIC MONSTERS OF THE MOVIES here in the States…nothing that comes remotely close.

    You guys do a fantastic job, and my only regret is that you weren’t around when I first got into classic horror films all those years ago! Keep up the great work.
