All the Glenn Strange Monster Scenes From "HOUSE OF FRANKENSTEIN" (1944)

[@jeromeosills6522]

i truly have to admit glen strange was perfect as the frankenstein monster his movements and facial expressions were very convincing! in just these short clips his presence is huge. i can watch this over and over again.

[@kali3665]

But they barely let the Monster DO anything in the film! But the scene in which the original Monster stares at his successor is still classic.

[@porflepopnecker4376]

He does even less in the next one, "House of Dracula." Strangely enough (so to speak), he gets more screen time in "Abbott & Costello Meet Frankenstein" than in both of the "House" movies put together.

[@cheese26611]

Exactly! Strange was completely underutilized, which is a shame since he was such an imposing figure and had a great look as the monster. He finally got some well-deserved screen time in "AACMF" but that was more comedy than horror. Would loved to have seen him in "Frankenstein Meets the Wolfman".

Glenn Strange was Marvelous as The Frankenstein Monster!!

[@improperbostonian6722]

They should have started Glenn Strange as the Monster in Frankenstein Meets The Wolfman and kept Bela Lugosi as Igor, And should have giving Glenn more screen time.

[@cheese26611]

Ha, I just posted a similar comment!

[@chicken4090]

While i love Bela i agree he looked ridiculous as Frankenstein (ive loved frankenstein since im a kid and i dont call him the monster i just call him Frankenstein or “my boy” lol) but part of it was how he was originally meant to be blinded from the ice for the entire movie, which they changed, all of his scenes were shot like his eyes were shut but he could actually see

[@GrantTarredus]

Of all Universal’s Frankenstein monsters, Strange’s has always been the one I’d least like to run into in a dark hallway.

[@williamlacey1981]

3:32 that’s the same scream from Boris Karloff in Son of Frankenstein

[@steveendicott1855]

I can watch Boris Karloff as the monster but something about Glenn Strange as the monster always scared me lol

[@susanroche597]

I think because we don’t see much of Glenn Frankenstein have more character development

[@fernandomaron87]

I think the more human monster that Karloff did in The Bride of Frankenstein, helped to remove the sinister aura he had in the first one. Glenn is a more quiet and eerie monster.

[@brucedavis3816]

The Glenn Strange look is what most people think of when it comes the monsters look. It was the model for most toys and masks!!!

[@chicken4090]

It was objectively Boris Karloff, Glen Strange is second but not a close second

[@louisborselio8608]

The greatest Porfle Popnecker video ever! Now I can watch this and Return of Frankenstein as one great Frankenstein monster saga.

I was hoping you'd like it.

[@robertmckenzie9803]

Glen strange as the monster suited the part great, very scary

[@1950Grendel]

Geln Strange was 5" taller than Karloff, but because Karloff was bigger name, he drowned last in the quicksand.

[@deancox8634]

House of Frankenstein is wrongly discarded as just a Universal programmer. Epic cast: Karloff, Chaney, Carradine, Zucco, Atwill. Great supporting cast: Peter Coe, Anne Gwynne. J Carrol Naish, Elena Verdugo. Haunting soundtrack, great atmosphere, beautiful set design, fast paced. A worthy entry in the Frankenstein/Dracula saga.

Thank you Mr. Glenn Strange, for playing in and starring in so many great westerns through the years, particularly in the very first episode of TVs "The Lone Ranger" in 1949, starring Clayton Moore and Jay Silverheels, A N D for playing and starring in the greatest TV western of all-time...... G U N S M O K E R.I.P. Glenn Strange

[@1950Grendel]

He had also been a country-western musician in the 1930, playing guitar, banjo, and fiddle.

Loved these movies as a kid on creature double feature channel 56 Boston

[@BigBingFan]

It was interesting watching "Frankenstein," "Bride of Frankenstein," "Son of Frankenstein," "Ghost of Frankenstein, "Frankenstein Meets the Wolfman," "House of Frankenstein," "House of Dracula," and "Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein," and living on Universal Monsters my whole 67 years........I loved Boris as The Monster, Bela as Dracula and Lon as The Wolfman." It's such a pity that all three never appeared together. THE BEST THREE by far in Universal Monster Lore! Now, as to Boris, he played a very sympathetic Monster, which I connected with. Bela was too stiff and snarling for me.....although his height played well. Lon Chaney as The Monster in "Ghost" was a workmanlike effort, not bad, better than Bela's, and I think Glenn Strange was slightly more effective than Lon, and lots better than Bela. I've studied these three characters all my life, and even though Igor was not my favorite character, was a good part for Bela. I was surprised that Bela was originally supposed to be "The Monster," but Boris got the role, and Bela was a natural as Count Dracula. Now, I DID NOT like John Carradine as Count Dracula in "House of Dracula." Just no one but Bela could play that role! Glenn Strange did a good job, so I do agree with most everyone, although Boris' rendition was superior in my opinion.

dang,,when glenn through igor through that window was the same thing that sent him to the hospital when he through the lady through the window in the abbot and costello movie cuz the wires that were supposed to support the woman broke and glenn hurt his back

[@whats20buks23]

Awesome !!

[@cheese26611]

I always thought it was amusing when the monster throws Daniel out the window. He slides down the roof and screams as he falls...15 feet. Worst case scenario, I'm thinking a couple of bruised ribs.

[@EndOfTheW0rld]

maybe it straightened his back out

[@bud389]

20% of fatal falls occur at around 15 feet. 49% of fatalities from falls are between 6 to 20 feet.

[@evacameron6288]

Can you do 'Ghost of Frankenstein'?

[@adriangussolovskiworld]

very good F monster

[@Brianna-hn6fm]

Frankenstein meet Brianna Shead dracula daughter

[@RobTheNotary]

Did anybody notice the last time Larry turns into the Wolfman his head is full of hair but his hands are not

[@charlescampbell3895]

One of the more famous errors of the Universal horror film series! Earlier, in the same film ,Dracula loses half of his mustache after the carriage crash!

[@chicken4090]

Karloff will always be the best
