Hammer Studios’ The Curse of Frankenstein (1957) revolutionized gothic horror, igniting the studio’s iconic color horror cycle and redefining cinematic terror for a new generation. Terence Fisher’s direction, combined with Peter Cushing’s chilling performance as Baron Frankenstein and Christopher Lee’s unforgettable portrayal of the Creature, set a new standard for the genre. This striking U.S. half sheet poster vividly captures the shock and allure of Hammer’s first color horror release, featuring Lee’s monstrous visage in fiery orange tones and the unforgettable tagline 'Please Try Not to Faint.' Highly collectible and rarely found in such clean condition, especially unfolded, this piece remains one of the essential posters from Hammer’s golden age — a cornerstone for any serious horror collection.
