Classic Monsters of Horror - in Color 

Something interesting I learned with the Frankenstein monster in the 40s is that in official color posters or photos his skin isn’t green, it’s a pale yellow

The backgrounds look so melancholic and beautiful like this.

What a difference between BW and color. Bela Lugosi’s Dracula still looks creepy even color. Brilliantly done.

I'm glad these colorized snippets seem pretty accurate to the time period (especially the Bride's REAL hair color). It also shows the true genius of these makeup designs, which is of course due to mainly Jack Pierce, the grandfather of makeup alongside Lon Chaney. Even in color, they all look great and honestly, the color doesn't take away from the old masks and makeup at all.

We all clearly love the original black and white films. But this was a real treat. Nicely done.

I love the black and white versions but the color versions absolutely bring them to life and make them feel so much closer to our age. I love it!

Whoever did this is a genius. The colourization is literally perfect. Especially Creature from the Black Lagoon.

This could help make more modern audiences give the old Universal Monsters a chance. As a long time fan, this is incredible!

Absolutely beautiful,i wish we could see them in full length in color..

Bride's grayish skintone is great, would love to see same for the Monster. The Creature...wow.

I wish universal would actually release these films like this. It adds so much life, and these films could reach a new audience

As cool as it is to see these clips in colour, I think it really shows how adept these filmmakers were at working with the medium of black and white. The clips are a lot more moody and gothic in their original monochrome, it works so well tonally.

I have loved the old black and white monster movies since I was a child....but these are amazing! Well done!

I think they should make them in color but keep the black and whites available to anybody who prefers the original versions. But damn this was amazing and breathes new life into the classics

"Well... we warned you." Okay, that was just brilliant!

Man, I would definitively rewatch all these classics in colour, they look great

I've never seen such good colorized work. I would love to see these movies in color.

I legitimately started tearing up because of how beautiful this was

As much as I love the original black and white, your work on these shows how fantastic classic monsters in color could be. I never want to lose the originals, but I'd love to add full length colorized versions of these to my collection!

I wish Universal would release the Universal Monster Verse in color on a DVD box set see those classics in color is like night and day it brings these classics to life ❤️

Dwight Fry looked terrifying! I love it!

The scene with the Frankenstein monster and Maria at the lake looked particularly good. It looked as if it could have been filmed yesterday. Colorization has come a long way.

WOW! I AM...speechless. Thank you for this amazing treat.

Seeing these in colour makes them new again. Very nice! Pretty good SFX too, for movies from 70 to nearly 100 years ago.

4:17 So, Count Orlok makes his appearance.

I've somehow, amazingly, never heard of Mad Love-need to watch that pronto.

Wow these colors are insane! Makes everything so spooky yet really cool, I love how they created everything like this even though it was shown in black and white. I guess black and white really suits frankensteins feeling.

I love the classic black and white. That said colorizing them would bring new life into these movies

This is just amazing. We need these films in color once and for all !

The Creature from black lagoon would look fantastic in color

"Frankenstein" and the "Creature" look especially great. Excellent job!

Now I wanna rewatch all these movies on color. Just watched Dracula last night in black & white

A dream come true all these films being shown colorized could bring on a new audiences to watch these films again and audience will always seen these will watch one more time, please bring these films back in color a new experience.

This is AMAZING. Thank you!

The Universal Horrors are awesome. I can't believe how scary Frankenstein and his Bride and Dracula are in color!! Audiences in the 1940s wouldn't have been able to watch them!!

LOVE THIS. Bernard Herrmman was perfect music choise.!

This is insane especially the frankenstein outside with the lil girl and the creature

Creature should have been in color. Also, seeing Erick the Phantom in color!! Thank you for this.

Wow wonderful in color!

Nice work!! Lugosi looks more menacing in color.

I grew up watching the black and whites and I love them, if they made them in color would I buy them? yes that looked good, I was really surprised how good some of them looked

All I can say is WOW!! Seeing these classic monsters in color brings a new depth to the films. I so wish all these classics would get the colorization treatment. Which could.bring future generations to appreciate these well loved films.

That man at the beginning and the end, his face expressions looks like a Disney classic Villain or Fleischer cartoon 💀💀

I became aware of the Universal monsters in 1963 when I was five years old. I have been watching them, on film, since I was seven---when my mother finally deemed me old enough to see them. All of the scenes you have included here have been long familiar to me, but the colorization makes them so much sharper and more immediate---especially that most heartbreaking and gutwrenching scene so brilliantly performed by Boris Karloff and Marilyn Harris. And bookending the whole video with Van Sloan's speech from the Prologue of Frankenstein was a brilliantly amusing touch. Thank you for posting this wonderful artwork.

Love to see these entire colorized movies in a modern movie theatre. Maybe all of them in a marathon.

The original, classic monster movies those were done beautifully with the color added just a beautifully done job. The music too really gives off a great sense of the atmosphere.

That was a blast from the past. Thank you 😊💓

They look great!!

Super cool looking in color, would be awesome seeing these films colorized like this.

That a great treat seeing ur favorite universal classic monsters in colour

Perfection! And the transformation of Dr. Jekyll to Hyde is just remarcable for its time and even today!

This is as spot on as it gets. I feel like Frankenstein could be slightly less green and the saturation on the scar isnt real realistic, but otherwise everything else seems perfect!

Absolutely gorgeous 🎥📺thanks.

Black Lagoon looks incredible in colour!

Love the classic monsters🦇☠️🧠🕸️😈👻👿👹🦂🐲👺🕷️🦴🎃💀😃👍

i love the colorized ones they are great

Boris as the Mummy , fantastic .

Love this. Very nice work.

Very well done! You know, I was always sure the Frankenstein monster wasn't green, but a ghastly yellowish white, and the creature appears whitish in this video. I'm so glad you included the original Phantom of the Opera and Nosferatu. Both great films!

First let me say how much I hate how people use the word “amazing” so often…but….THIS WAS AMAZING! I love these old movies and watch them whenever I can….if there was a whole week were they played one of these colorized movies at a local theater every day, I would go the entire week to see them all. Popcorn and a coke every day….The music played during this added to the allure of these snippets. Thank you…..

I usually don't like colorized movies but these are quite good. Thanks.

The creature in 3-D color would be incredible ! Dr. Barry at Legend please convince Universal to convert there now 4K data !!

Utterly magic 🌟🌟🌟

Seeing one of my all-time favourite characters, The Gillman, in colour, is a real treat

I like them better in color. They should release them on dvd like that.

All the characters & background scenes are absolutely fantastic !

Mrs.Frankenstein is amazing better than the original. Great work.

I would totally love watching these old horror films in color. Thank you for sharing. :)

I think the b/w films from the 50s and 60s should get this treat-a-ment!

Now I want to see them in color!

A million times better in black and white.

Thanks for putting in werewolf of London

It looks even creepier in color!

I concur with everybody, it's an absolute treat to see these classic monsters in color. As some one else just commented, it seems to work best on "The Creature from the Black Lagoon," which truly does look amazing. Love this stuff!!!

Absolutely outstanding

Not only is the colorization perfect, the images are crisper too.

Fantastic! If only they would colorize these films. Creature from the Black Lagoon would be ideal to colorize with it's tropical settings benefiting from the process. I loved this, thanks!

LOOKS GOOD!! Colorizing classic films like this that are very well done only enhances these movies as far as I'm concerned! WELL DONE!!

This is brilliant! I wish the entire films were re-dune this way. The Creature looked particularly lifelike.

Whoa! I want to rewatch them all like this!

Love the Bernard Herrmann music! The Invisible Man is my favorite!

I think I always wondered how the Universal Classic Movie Monsters look in color.

It’s almost like seeing them for the first time! Outstanding

I recognized Clips from Frankenstein, Bride of Frankenstein, Dracula, The Mummy, The Invisible Man, The Wolfman, Werewolf of London, Mad Love, Doctor Jekyll & Mr. Hyde, and the Creature From the Black Lagoon.

SIMPLY FANTASTIC! Thanks from am old monster kid

The transformation of dr Jekyll is fantastic

This looks really good because you gave your color the tones that it would have had if they did film it in color in their time periods. - Creature looked especially great. thanX for not giving it red lips! :D

B&W adds so much to the suspense. Color just exposes the flaws in these old classics.

The coloring technique makes it look like AI which makes it even creepier and almost brings it to uncanny valley.

Can't beat the classic black and white but the color just adds a whole new element to the universal monsters!🎃

Now that's a true horror masterpiece. Great work. Just truly appreciate the hard work on all those classics.

Awesome redefining colorizations, haunting and beautiful and totally unforgettable.

The Invisible Man is one of my all time favorites. Seeing it in color was definitely a treat!

Wow, fantastic and iconic. This was my childhood. The color was a treat and really brought it to life even though I do love B&W. Great vid, thanks!

Quite the difference seeing the classic Universal monsters in color. Much obliged. 🎃

I LOVE this video. I LOVE IT! I love Everything in it!

2:35 I rewatched this clip over and over as a kid until I got the laugh down. I'd use it on my bullies and convinced them I was one bad day away from owning a skin suit.

Wow just incredible. Pure ART. I have never seen these films in such high resolution quality, let alone colour. I would prefer to watch this era of horror movies than current horror films anyday.

Haha that little Nosferatu clip at the end with the note it ends on

Excellent to see what the old classics in B/W would have looked like in color. Awesome
