from 1951 comes Tales of Tomorrow, the series. In this episode- FRANKENSTEIN, John Newland, host of One Step Beyond, does a bang up job as Dr Frankenstein, playing again Lon Chaney Jr as the monster. Great make up, and not a bad story.
I had always heard that Chaney, a notorious alcoholic, became inebriated before the show and thought the live telecast was the final dress rehearsel, which is why he picks up the chair and then just puts it back down instead of crushing it.
