    It seems that the scariest villains on screen turn out to be the sweetest and kindest people. As an actor myself, I always marvel at the job he did in "Frankenstein." The most difficult acting of all is non-verbal acting, yet he infused this horrifying, lumbering creature with a sense of pathos and all-to human qualities that made you care about him as much as fear him. It was a performance for the ages, never to be duplicated. RIP.

      Be sure to watch "The Bride of Frankenstein," my all-time Karloff classic, and one of the very first sequels of all time. Rarely do sequels ever surpass the original, but this time Universal and James Whale hit it out of the park. Amazing.

      @@irened. So What Do you really think this actor will believe you ? Here you are AGAIN on yet another Karloff video. , you know what, there are so many of your pedophiles, out there running around ,why dont you worry about them.? They are the ones you should worry about , not dead people. Now, why in the world do you worry so much about a dead man. You are a very disturbed lady, crazy is more like it ! Your are totally a nut case. And yes I'm a Karloff fan . And so are millions of others as you can see by the comments. Are they all pedophiles too ? Your a sick woman who needs to seek help, and yes I edited my comment !😝 willing to provide your stupid retouched photos , of a dead man. And all because you are a Bela Lagosi fan , and you think he Karloff ruined Lagosis career, and that's the size of it , period ! And heres to your so called un- retouched photos , ha ha ha !

    I was four months short of my eleventh birthday when the great Karloff passed away. I remember waking up for school and not only hearing the news on the local morning talk show, but noticing how respectful the program host was. In fact, that particular morning show suspended its usual musical format and, instead, played recorded clips of Karloff's voice for the entire morning. His was the first death that impacted me; a month later, my grandfather died of cancer. When I went to school the morning of Karloff's death, my classmates spoke of his passing in a mocking way, and openly laughed at me when I broke into tears.

    Another wonderful thing Boris did--and this was especially courageous--was helping to found the Screen Actors Guild. In the 1930's actors were treated like objects.There was more consideration payed to "the horse of a different color" in The Wizard of Oz than to human actors who were exposed to toxic make-ups or forced to do dangerous stunts. One of Boris' fellow actors called and told him the studio was planning to have the actors ski down a fake mountain--MADE OF GLASS. If an actor fell, he would be cut to pieces. When Boris heard that, he cursed one of the few times in his life. Somehow, he managed to stop it. But forming SAG was very risky. It was a UNION, and the studio bosses didn't like unions. The actors involved would have to meet in secret and park their cars far away to avoid detection from studio spies. But the SAG was founded with good Old Boris' help. A great human being.

    You can tell in the opening of the show how Boris was really taken back by the news that it was his turn on This is your Life. In a personal interview his daughter mentioned that her dad was a private intelligent man. During parts of the show it seems like he was really uncomfortable a first, As I'm sure anyone would be with that news. But he seemed to get into it as the show wore on especially when Jack Pierce showed up.
