Mr. Blog's Tepid Ride

October, 20, 2011

It’s Halloween, I just had to toss The Zombie into the mix.

When you think of Halloween you think of monsters, and I think of classic monsters like Frankenstein, Dracula, the Wolf Man and the Mummy. Mike Mongello does too, and better yet, he thinks of them in their classic Universal movie looks.

First up is my favorite, Bela Lugosi as Dracula.

Not to be outdone, here is Boris Karloff as The Mummy and Frankenstein.

Look at the expression in those eyes.

Not to be left out, here is Christopher Lee as Hammer’s version of Dracula. For my money, Christopher Lee is the definitive Dracula.

Here’s Mike’s own take on those characters.

But wait, there’s more! The Bride of Frankenstein, The Wolf Man, and The Creature From the Black Lagoon.

Now let’s wrap this all up with some monster jams and an amazing banner.

All of Mike Mongello’s artwork can be found on his site, www.supermonge.com.
