The Two Gay Geeks have a chat with a chat amongst themselves about the Classic Universal Horror films that started it all. We take a look at Dracula, Frankenstein, and The Mummy, all released in the early heyday of horror at Universal 1931 - 1932. A little history and some critique on the restored versions of these films are up for discussion. Have a listen and we hope you enjoy this as much as we did.
