This Week in Fright film History February 11 - 17, 2018


Dracula (1931) premiered at the Roxy Theatre in New York on February 12, 1931.  Newspapers reported that some audience members fainted from shock. This was obviously a publicity stunt perpetrated by the film studio to help boost ticket sales.


Creature from the Black Lagoon (1954) directed by Jack Arnold and starring Richard Carlson, Julia Adams, Richard Denning, Antonio Moreno and Whit Bissell premiered on February 12, 1954.
