Boris Karloff made a number of appearances, in and out of
Frankenstein Monster makeup, in cartoonist Feg Murray’s celebrated Seein’
Stars strip. This late entry, on 16 April
1944, for 1939’s SON OF FRANKENSTEIN, was nothing more than an excuse for a fun
anecdote — that is also pure hype, no doubt.
On 25 May 1947, Karloff put in a non-horror appearance
decked in feathers and longhair wig as Guyasuta of the Senecas from Cecil B.
DeMille’s UNCONQUERED. Boris also shared space in November 1940 with Bela
Lugosi and Peter Lorre as the triple-threat menaces in the horror-comedy-musical YOU’LL FIND OUT, a Kay
Kyser vehicle.

Yup, hype.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Oh cool. I just watched the Kay Kyser movie for the first time this October. Since then, I feel like I've seen it popping up everywhere.
I've really been enjoying this series on Feg Murray, by the way. Thanks Pierre!
(That's "GARBO," of course!)
Managing university deadlines while balancing classes and personal commitments can be really stressful. I was searching for expert support and came across this excellent university assignment help service. Their academic writers delivered high-quality, well-researched assignments tailored to my university’s requirements. Everything was delivered on time, and the content helped me understand the topic better. If you're facing academic pressure and need professional help, I highly recommend this service—it truly helped improve my performance and reduce my stress.
