It's hard to find an actor more closely tied to classic horror than Boris Karloff. Just the sound of his voice is enough to send a shiver up the spine. Ironically, his most iconic role, Frankenstein’s Monster, is mostly silent. When Karloff donned the famous makeup in 1931, he cemented his place in horror history.
You can see Karloff in the 1931 classic Frankenstein as part of our October FrankenFest this Saturday, October 9, at 8P | 7C on Svengoolie!
Even if they’ve never watched the original Frankenstein, most horror fans have certainly seen Boris Karloff's likeness as the monster. Or so it might seem. Many lookalike monsters popped up in the numerous sequels. Some were still played by Karloff, some weren’t.
Here are nine different iterations of Frankenstein's Monster from classic horror films. Can you find the one played by Boris Karloff?

They double crossed him and stole his money, left for dead. Now he wants it back. Not a dollar more or dollar less. Single-mindedly tries to retrieve the money that was stolen from him. .He will have to go to extremes to get it. At least 4 famous actors you all know. One being a woman (of course). You know her well. Leading actor usually plays a tough hard core type in most of his movies. Another actor male has played in movies but more well known in a long running TV Show (comedy).

The time is now to watch this movie if you haven't already. Will it entertain you, yes. Will it surprise you, yes. Will it agonize you, yes. Will it scare you, for sure. When it starts you will think "Oh look at the savages". They are not the savages. They will come later and then you will "gulp". You will say "how come". Because they can and this is the way humans lived in this area, long, long ago. There will be blood. There will be sacrifices and an absolute awesome finish to it, one way or another. The not so bad savages you will be rooting for. The really bad savages you will learn to fear, loath and hate. Now aren't you glad you're not from those times, whew! I'd say so. Those who watch let me know the outcome of your feelings towards watching it. Oh the movie is below.

Frankenstein. An outstanding movie, a unique combo of comedy and horror that has never
been duplicated. In one scene where Costello stepped off his mark in front of a closed door,
Strange punched thru it from the other side and walloped Lou, who finished the scene.
It was left in the film and it's obvious when you know to look for it.
Everything fell into place to make this a classic, including by chance using the future horror icon
Vincent Price as the Invisible Man. This flick stacks up with any Marx Brothers film, but because
Bud and Lou were "low comics" high brow critics are loath to give it it's due.
I got news for them, the Marx Brothers played the same joints and Vaudeville theaters that
Abbott and Costello appeared in.
