Believe it or not, without Elsa Lanchester, there probably would not be any Cult Sirens website. In fact, it’s not exaggeration to claim that her immortal role in Bride of Frankenstein can easily make her the ultimate Siren in history, considering that this unique character may be the ultimate female role in a horror movie. Nothing less! I enjoyed Bride of Frankenstein for the first time in a simple house in the country, around 2 AM, on a PBS station that our black & white TV set could get when the weather permitted it. As the movie flashed by before my eyes, I was more and more assured that it would became my all-time favorite movie of the horror genre… which is the case more than 25 years later. Needless to say, Elsa Lanchester’s inestimable contribution played a big part for my love toward the film.
