CLASSIC MONSTERS OF THE MOVIES ANNUAL 2026

The Classic Monsters of the Movies Annual 2026 is a captivating compendium of science fiction and horror. Daniel Horne's vivid cover coveys it all, with a spree of popular personas featured throughout the magazine's issues.

The articles are distinguished by fascinating theories and angles, including Nige Burton's meticulous comparison of Tod Browning's Dracula to James Whale's Frankenstein; Jamie Jones' celebration of character actors and their everlasting, familiar faces; Dave Huckvale's skillful scrutiny of the corporate terrors of The Satanic Rites of Dracula; John Logan's glowing analysis of Gerry Anderson's U.F.O. and Space: 1999; Jonathan Rigby's grand tour of Roger Corman's Poe adaptations; Jones' opulent overview of the cinematic Stephen King; and Burton's daring dissertation on how Universal and Hammer's influence thrives within contemporary horror.  

As with all Classic Monsters of the Movies issues, this 100-page release is printed on high-stock paper, with crisp photos that are both moody and vibrant, thus creating a page-turning museum for those who appreciate the morbid and the imaginative.

HORROR MOVIES, AN ILLUSTRATED HISTORY, VOL 2: A CLASSIC MONSTERS OF THE MOVIES TRIBUTE

Classic Monsters of the Movies presents an 84-page, Silver Age, Horror Movies Illustrated History (1939-1949) edition, which continues the vast, historic overview initiated in the publisher's Silents to the Golden Age (see August 2023 post).

In this comprehensive respect, Vol 2 emphasizes that glorious period after the horror genre faced a censorious, four-year slumber. In fact, within the ensuing resurgence, some of the genre's creme de la creme fiends (re)emerged, and not just from Universal, but RKO, Warner Bros, Columbia and Monogram, featuring such hypnotic headliners as Tod Slaughter, Bela Lugosi, Boris Karloff, Lon Chaney Jr., Matt Willis, Tom Tyler, Claude Rains, Evelyn Ankers, John Carradine, Simone Simon, Glenn Strange, J. Carrol Naish, Charles Laughton, Basil Rathbone, Lionel Atwill, Peter Lorre, Vincent Price, George Zucco, David Bruce, Louise Allbritton, Eric von Stroheim, Rondo Hatten, Ray Milland, Spencer Tracy, Michael Redgrave, Wilfred Walter, Albert Dekker, Veda Ann Borg (aka Lila von Altermann) and (believe it or not) many more.

With this potent plethora, Horror Movies, An Illustrated History, Vol 2 also includes the period's spinetingling string of psychological, existential and scientific offerings, which proved therapeutic during the tension-fraught span of WWII. 

Authors/researchers Nige Burton and Jamie Jones, bring all the macabre details to life, entrenching this second Horror Movies, An Illustrated History, as another stunning, Classic Monsters contribution that all horror-movie buffs will hold close to their harried hearts.
