Republic Pictures Horror Collection 06/08/24

KL Studio Classics
Blu-ray

What a round-up!  Republic is mainly known for westerns, but also tried their hand at horror now and then. Charlie Largent tries ’em on for size, as new remasters make ’em look like they never looked before, Pardner — I mean, “Ygor.” It’s a wide range of attractions: The Phantom Speaks, The Catman of Paris, Valley of the Zombies — and The Lady and the Monster, the first film version of Curt Siodmak’s ‘Donovan’s Brain.’ It’s a real keeper, with Erich von Stroheim as the mad doctor who speaks the immortal words, “Bring me the Giggly Saw!” On Blu-ray from KL Studio Classics.
