In 1950s Hollywood, horror movies all but turned their back on the genre’s classic Gothic creations. Instead of Dracula and Frankenstein’s Monster came new nightmares for the modern Atomic Age – in all manner of strange shapes and sizes.
In The B-Movie Monsters That Time Forgot!, Leigh Singer explores the weird and wonderful creature features that conquered the genre more than half a century ago, and whose sense of invention, daring and sheer fun have helped keep them alive longer than anyone might have dared imagine…
