# 019 - Universal Studios Classic Monsters: Breakdown and Ranking
Manage episode 443343207 series 3552892
Dracula (1931), Frankenstein (1931), The Wolf Man (1941), The Mummy (1932), The Invisible Man (1933) and The Creature from the Black Lagoon (1954) — while Universal Studios certainly had more monsters in its catalog back in the 1940s and 1950s, that was the core group that changed cinema and created horror cinema — with sound.
These classics followed a path blazed by early silent movies like Nosferatu and Phantom of the Opera. When the films had begun to grow moldy, they were revived on TV for a new generation of viewers in the 1960s with Shock Theater.
These characters have endured, and so have these original, fantastic films. Find out why we make these Universal Studios Classic Monsters a part of our Halloween movie marathons every year.
