It’s the end of The House of Franklin-Stein for 2016…and the beginning of Hammer Horror! Chris and Cindy discuss 1957’s The Curse of Frankenstein starring Peter Cushing as the mad but charismatic baron, and Christopher Lee as his grotesque creation! This film launched the Hammer Horror tradition; the color, the gore and the glamour!

Then, instead of the dusty comic long boxes, the intrepid duo fire up the old TV set, for a look at a 1979 episode of the Super Friends: “The Super Friends Meet Frankenstein”! The mad doctor takes the powers and abilities of Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman and makes a Super Monster! Can Super Robin stop him?
