THE BRIEFLY-ACRID CONTUMACIOUSLY-CRAPULOUS FLICKERS PROJECT 2023 🍋💀🍔

Screen Gems' 1957 television package which first released to television the classic Universal horror films (mostly) which kick-started the "Monster Craze": "52 of Universal's most spine-tingling, full-length feature films for first-run television". From the original SHOCK! pressbook: "For years, tales of terror, macabre stories of ghouls and ghosts have fascinated millions in every form of entertainment. Now, for the first time, this eerie world of the weird and supernatural comes to television with stunning impact in SHOCK -- an irresistible attraction for mood programming of feature films. SHOCK brings to your television audience what they have never had before -- night after night of thrills and more thrills with the screen's titans of terror..." 

The impact of this first release to television of these classic Universal monsters can hardly be overstated in its importance to the subsequent "horror boom" period. Here are the films in the order they appeared in the original SHOCK! pressbook.

I've decided to add those the films included in the second SON OF SHOCK package beginning with number 53.

The Cat Creeps

It will scare you out of your skin!
