The Bride of Frankenstein<\/em> 1935 Ultimate Guide Signed Hardback is the collector\u2019s edition of this guide, in a strictly limited edition hardcover format – only 50 in the world<\/em> – and signed and numbered by the authors with a FREE exclusive Bride of Frankenstein<\/em> art print.<\/h2>\n

Journey back to the watchtower laboratory and learn what Henry did next, with the signed hardback Bride of Frankenstein<\/em> 1935 Ultimate Guide New Edition. This stunning hardcover publication is an all-new reimagining of one of our earliest guides, packed with new information and a wealth of stills as well as a totally fresh design to bring it bang up to date and in line with our more recent movie guides. The signed Bride of Frankenstein<\/em> 1935 Ultimate Guide New Edition Signed Hardback is a must-have companion to another journey through one of classic horror cinema\u2019s most genuinely iconic motion pictures – produced to the highest standard, with the commitment to excellence you expect from Classic Monsters, it\u2019s another essential for your collection.<\/span><\/h2>\n

The colossal success of 1931\u2019s Frankenstein<\/em> spurred Universal on to explore the next chapter in the misadventures of the misunderstood Monster, and Bride of Frankenstein<\/em> was a more than capable sequel. A raft of stellar performances, led by a returning Boris Karloff, brought a dark tale to life in style under the direction of James Whale and set the bar higher than ever for the horror genre. Our signed hardback Bride of Frankenstein<\/em> guide explores the new characters, bold ideas and delicious black humour, as well as the myriad creative decisions, that continue to bring fans immeasurable joy.<\/p>\n

\"Bride<\/p>\n

REMEMBER – THERE ARE ONLY 50 COPIES OF THIS TITLE IN THE WHOLE WORLD!<\/h1>\n

Such is the special place the film holds in the hearts of countless fans, our original guide to Bride of Frankenstein<\/em> has been one of our most popular titles, and introduced many readers to our range of publications. As the style, content and structure of our Ultimate Guides have all evolved, it seemed only fair that one of the all-time classic horror movies was celebrated with a guide in this new format, so the signed hardcover Bride of Frankenstein<\/em> Ultimate Guide New Edition reflects the more refined approach we now have. As you explore a wealth of information about the movie\u2019s production, development, cultural impact and place in the Universal pantheon, you\u2019ll discover there\u2019s never been a hardback Bride of Frankenstein<\/em> movie guide like it.<\/p>\n

You\u2019ll see immediately that this luxury casebound film guide is very easy on the eye, with a clean and timeless layout that allows every aspect of the content to shine. The meticulously restored stills have never looked better thanks to our commitment to including only the very best imagery. Even black and white stills are printed using a full-colour process which means that while they might be black and white, they have a depth and detail that cheaper newspaper-style monochrome printing simply can\u2019t match. You may well spot imagery you\u2019ve never seen before, as this casebound Bride of Frankenstein<\/em> Ultimate Guide includes plenty of stills not featured in the original version.<\/p>\n

The production values are as high-end as you\u2019d expect from a Classic Monsters title. This signed hardcover Bride of Frankenstein<\/em> movie guide is printed to A4 size (210mm x 297mm), and boasts an anti-scuff cover that marks it out as a collector\u2019s piece. The inner pages, meanwhile, have a subtle silk sheen to make the turn of every page a pleasure, and the whole guide is trimmed and finished to perfection.<\/p>\n

A set of absorbing, professionally written articles leads you through the story of the film\u2019s genesis, shining a spotlight on the studio politics, personal ambitions and commercial decisions that led to this watershed moment in horror film history. So much information about the film didn\u2019t make it into the original guide back in 2016, so the Bride of Frankenstein<\/em> Ultimate Guide New Edition Signed Hardback includes new facts and details that will enrich your understanding of the film\u2019s creation. And of course, it\u2019s all illustrated with those glorious stills.<\/p>\n

You\u2019ll also learn about the people whose combined efforts resulted in a sparkling piece of movie magic. This signed hardback Bride of Frankenstein<\/em> movie guide has a host of biographies that reveal the lives and careers of key cast and crew members. From stars Boris Karloff, Colin Clive, Valerie Hobson and Elsa Lanchester, through to director Whale, cinematographer John J Mescall and art director Charles D Hall, the melting pot of talent on show here is awe-inspiring.<\/p>\n

What are you crying for? We\u2019re all safe now, and the awful Monster has been burned to a crisp\u2026 hasn\u2019t he? Maybe we could ask that strange Dr Pretorius, who\u2019s been hanging around a lot lately. He says we should leave the charnel house, but it\u2019s so comfortable in here. He seems to be holding some kind of memorial service with those hoodlums (why else would they be down here in the crypt?), so let\u2019s find a quiet corner and read the signed hardback Ultimate Guide to Bride of Frankenstein<\/em>. There\u2019s a new world of gods and monsters to discover\u2026<\/p>\n
