DESIGNER UNKNOWN LA HIJA DE FRANKENSTEIN. 1958. 36 1/2x27 inches, 92 3/4x68 1/2 cm. Condition B+: restored losses and restoration along vertical and horizontal folds in margins and image; repaired pin holes in corners. Considered "the worst of the Frankenstein movies" (Beauty and the Beast p. 56), this poster clearly succeeds where the movie fails. This Mexican poster promotes the film by announcing the monster's return, exclaiming "It reaches from the grave to re-live the horror, the terror! More destructive! More terrifying!" The flames behind the monster hint at what is to come - the monster burns to death in the lab after accidentally knocking over a Bunsen burner. Beauty and the Beast p. 64, Manifesti del Cinema 147 (var).
