Your Classic Monster Wish!

"Godzilla meets his mother in law!"

...the horror, the horror...

Sherlock Holmes (Basil Rathbone)
Vs.
Dracula (Bela Lugosi)
Now that would have AWESOME.

In the seventies, Hammer Films announced a "Holmes vs Dracula" supposedly to star Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee , of course it was never made. This would have been a dream. *sigh*

K vs G actually had two endings.  In the American, Kong was the winner, in Japan 'twas the big G.  Finding different copies is the hell of it though.

That's an old urban legend that was debunked decades ago, I'm afraid.

There's a French filmmaker trying to raise the funds to make "Sherlock Holmes Meets Frankenstein." He's cast the now-grown leads from "Young Sherlock Holmes" as Holmes and Watson. There's a Facebook page for the film, I believe.

Continue the legend of AC Meet Frankenstein by filming Jeff Rovin's book, "Return of the Wolfman"! In the movie, I'll play me!!

That Colin Clive had played PENDEREL in THE OLD DARK HOUSE instead of Melvyn Douglas.  He was Whale's first choice, and could have done it blindfolded....but turned it down.

That the "Red Skelton Show" episode that starred both Vincent Price and Boris Karloff survived, and will someday be available on DVD.  Besides the skit where the two mistook Red Skelton's bumpkin fro a monster, there was a musical number where they sang a song together, in a vehicle with "RIP" across the front.

2. That Dracula Vs. Frankenstein was made in 1936, and starred Lugosi and Karloff and actually had a good fight scene with a clear winner.

Agreed; Karloff and Lugosi together  in their classic roles would have been awesome!

[Bonomo]

That any of the classic monster actors were still kickin' and I could work with them

[I.M.]

The Mummy: To see Karloff make a few additional steps in full body under his legendary makeup.

1.  Willis O'Brien would find a business partner with savvy who would have made multiple picture deals so he need never go long between pictures and could have seen most of his TV and movie ideas made into films.  (Also -- Obie got wealthy from them and could afford a nice ranch so he and Darlyne could ride their own horses instead of having to rent other people's horses).

2  Bela Lugosi would never have had a serious addiction and would have been healthy and wealthy enough to retire in style!

3.  All the silent horror films survived  .... including rare ones like The Savage and While London Sleeps, and during the 1940s some rich benefactors financed restoration and they are now available on DVD!

4.  Magazines and books about classic horror are so popular and so prestigious that I can get 300 dollars for a one page article which is read by 2 million readers!

The closet we ever got to this was in Son of Frankenstein when Karloff played The Monster one last time, and Lugosi played Ygor, who actually had fangs!

I really wish we got to see much more of the Carradine Dracula in "House of Dracula" and "House of Frankenstein"...with better lines, better effects, and sans top-hat. His voice alone was perfect for the Count..passed way too early in HOF. Oh yeah, and if Universal had filmed "Abbott and Costello Meet the Creature From the Black Lagoon"...long title, but imagine those two as merchant marines ona  tramp steamer travelling down the Amazon... oh Chic..Oh Chiccccc!!

I love the idea of those two morons getting chased by the Creature -- they deserve it for letting my exhibits get away!! I would also love to someday be able to see the Creature in an IMAX theater in 3D.
