Presented with the passion and finesse you&#8217;ve come to expect from Classic Monsters, this beautiful full colour publication is absolutely packed with stunning stills and posters to accompany articles by all your favourite writers covering every corner of the classic horror universe.<\/p>\n<p>This issue, our cover story examines the 1920 retelling of <em>Dr Jekyll &amp; Mr Hyde<\/em> starring John Barrymore in the twin title roles. This silent masterpiece is regarded by many as one of the eeriest cinematic versions of Robert Louis Stevenson&#8217;s world famous novella, and we explore the reasons why. Daniel Horne&#8217;s exemplary painting of Barrymore as the spider-like Hyde is featured on the front cover in glorious Monstercolor!<\/p>\n<p>But that&#8217;s just for starters, as Classic Monsters of the Movies #11 has plenty more surprises in store. This issue sees the concluding part of our definitive and in-depth feature on the making of Michael Reeves&#8217; 1968 cult classic <em>Witchfinder General<\/em>, as well as 1960&#8217;s oft-overlooked but hugely atmospheric thriller <em>City of the Dead<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Elsewhere, there&#8217;s a biography of Dwight Frye, whose appearances in movies like <em>Dracula<\/em> and <em>Frankenstein<\/em> in 1931 showed a gift for intensely entertaining performances, thanks in part to that famed stare. We also take a look at the complexities of family ties, jealousies and rivalries within monster families, and dodge those lethal robots with a profile of 1964 kitsch sci-fi classic <em>The Earth Dies Screaming<\/em>. Whichever monster you love the most, the combination of beautiful design, stunning stills and top-flight journalism in Classic Monsters of the Movies #11 is sure to keep you reading.<\/p>\n<p>Issue 11 includes:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><i>Dr\u00a0Jekyll &amp; Mr Hyde<\/i><\/strong> &#8211; John Barrymore turned the wicked alter ego of Stevenson&#8217;s scientist into a truly unsettling antagonist in a movie packed with shocks &#8211; join us in taking a fresh look at one of silent cinema&#8217;s greatest thrillers.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Thicker Than Water<\/strong> &#8211; not all monsters are lone wolves.
