Intro/Outro - Fatal Follower
"Karloff is best known for his role as “The Monster” in the classic horror films Frankenstein (1931), Bride of Frankenstein (1935) and Son of Frankenstein (1939). This documentary examines his extraordinary 60-year career in the entertainment industry, as well as his continuing influence as a horror icon.
Directed by Thomas Hamilton (Leslie Howard: The Man Who Gave a Damn) and co-produced and co-written by Ron MacCloskey, the film provides a riveting depiction of Karloff and the genre he helped define through exclusive interviews with his daughter, Sarah Karloff, and filmmakers he influenced, including Peter Bogdanovich, Guillermo del Toro, Christopher Plummer, John Landis, Roger Corman and Kevin Brownlow. BORIS KARLOFF: THE MAN BEHIND THE MONSTER is a follow-up to the critically acclaimed 2010 biography "Boris Karloff: More Than A Monster," written by Karloff's official biographer Stephen Jacobs, who also serves as the film's historical consultant." - Shout Studios! / Abramorama
