Universal Monsters + Fuckability
Tumblr media
Qualifications (choosing movies)
I have seen the movie.
Characters listed as part of the Universal Monsters lineup (Phantom of the Opera from 1925 for example is not included.)
Personality and events of film considered just as much as physical attractiveness.
Tumblr media
[ID: Picture of Bela Lugosi as Dracula, dressed in black clothes and a cape, staring at the camera with an annoyed expression. His face is slightly in the shadows. End id]
Dracula (1931)
Bela Lugosi kinda handsome
Vampires hot
Rich. 
Has three wives (dick is good) (plus you can hang out with wives)
Hypnosis
Loses points because the movie was boring and he kills Lucy Westron, poly icon (antifeminist)
7/10
Tumblr media
[ID: image of Boris Karloff as Frankenstein, holding his hands to his face, looking offscreen and with a disturbed expression. The lighting only lights up his face. End ID]
Frankenstein (1931)
Literally just born (minor) and doesn’t understand sex
Movie diverged too much from the book for me to like it 
Too awkward and big
Unclear if he has any genitalia at all
1/10 because this image is cool and a little sexy
Tumblr media
[ID: Boris Karloff as Imhotep the mummy. His skin is dried and sunken in. He's glaring at something offscreen. He's dressed in a high collar brown shirt and a cap that covers the top of his head. End ID]
The Mummy (1932)
One of my faves 
Backstory is centered around LOVE - will literally curse the gods and forsake everyone for his lover. Hot. 
The opening scene where he came awake for the first time was sexy.
Anti colonialist
Hypnosis
Nice voice
Loses points for unfortunately not being very attractive - dry skin
9/10
Tumblr media
[No image for this slide]
The Invisible Man (1933)
Wanted to take over the world and went to his best friend and not his FIANCE??? Gay, and clearly doesn’t care about lover’s needs (even with said best friend). 
Not a monster, just an asshole
Pushed over a baby carriage! Disgusting
We don’t know what he looks like. Sexiness only comes from whether or not you think having sex with someone you can’t see would be hot or not.
Gets points for being a silly little guy, ambition being hot, and the “villain goes soft only for his loved one” trope
Still. -5/10
Bride of Frankenstein (1935)
Tumblr media
Like Frankenstein, Literally just born (minor) and doesn’t understand sex
Also had strong reaction AGAINST being an object of desire and so ranking her is missing the point
However because she’s the ONLY woman on this list she gets special privileges.
will be ranking her as if she was not literally ten minutes old and if she understood sex
Tumblr media
[ID: Elsa Lanchester as the bride of Frankenstein. The lighting of the image is very bright, so you can see her whole upper body with very few shadows. She's staring at something offscreen with a curious but frightened expression. She wears white robes, and her hair is black with a white streak up the sides, in a beehive style. End ID]
Bride of Frankenstein (1935) (cont.)
Horror movie scream A+
Gorgeous and Iconic
Understands No Means No. (Unlike other creatures on this list) 
Baby Girl you are SO unnerving 💖💖💖 
Tall Woman. Probably strong. 
10/10.
Tumblr media
[ID: Two images of the wolf man. One is the wolf man as the wolf man, standing in thr woods, his face covered in fur, his hands furry and clawed, looking panicked. The second is Lon Cheney Jr. as Larry Talbot, a white man with short dark hair slicked back, dressed in a suit with a plaid tie, with a stressed out look on his face. End ID]
The Wolf Man (1941)
This movie just makes me sad. Larry Talbot is a tragic figure.
But he’s also kind of a stalker (spies on woman)
Only a monster half of the time
Wolf form isn’t attractive. (human form okay.)
No sense of control. 
Not even a little okay with his murders. Too pathetic and sad.
2/10
Tumblr media
[ID: Image of the creature from the black lagoon, a creature the size of a man covered in scaley and amphibian-like skin with a fish-like face. He's mostly submerged in water, only his head and finned hands with sharp claws poking out of the water. End ID]
The Creature From The Black Lagoon (1954)
Definitely my favourite
Environmentalist! Anti colonialist! 
Swimming scene half creepy half romantic, also gets points for inspiring The Shape of Water (2017).
Phenomenal creature design, A+. 
Just wants someone to love
Will kill everyone else but NOT lover.
Underwater sex. Rough sex.
Sex will probably be awkward because of this.
8/10
Tumblr media
[ID: profile of the Bride of Frankenstein. Her head is tiled up and her eyes are mostly closed.]
Congratulations to our winner! Runner ups, The Mummy and the Creature From the Black Lagoon.

'the wolf man' (1941) prompts. 🌕
'Hasn't changed much, has it?' 'All astronomers are amateurs.' 'We'll take a little walk tonight and we'll talk it over.' 'That's just a legend, though, isn't it?' 'I don't want to go alone.' 'Everyone knows about werewolves.' 'He bit me. Look here.' 'Surely, a wound can't heal overnight.' 'The way you walked was thorny, through no fault of your own.' 'Don't you dare touch me.' 'Why does everyone insist that I'm confused?' 'I expected you sooner.' 'Whoever is bitten by a werewolf and lives becomes a werewolf himself.' 'There's no right and wrong, no good and bad. No shadings and grays, all blacks and whites.' 'We try to see every side.' 'It's a werewolf.' 'Well, he can't have disappeared into thin air.' 'You are caught in a trap.' 'They are hurting you.' 'I can't stay here any longer.' 'You think I'm insane.' 'Then I'll see to it that you can't go out to them.' 'But, you're going to stay with me, aren't you?' 'Just take it with you.' 'You startled me.' 'Don't go through the woods.' 'Come with me or he will find you.' 'Your suffering is over.'

Uhhhh...I mean it was definitely a Structured Leisure Sunday, so I haven't got much, other than, like, vibing. I had to run out to get cat food and litter, so I picked up a burger and onion rings and had that with Irish breakfast tea this morning. It was surprisingly good, I think any robust black tea would be appropriate. I thought about adding in a half scoop of lapsang souchong, because I think the smokiness would pair well with the burger, so something to keep in mind for another time.
Ooh, or the mushroom and swiss burger with that pu-erh dante tea? That would be delicious. My new brunch specialty: pairing selections from the culver's menu with loose leaf tea.
Anyway, on to Double Feature Sunday, and this week it's original vs. remake!
The Wolf Man (1941)
Tumblr media
They did this one on Freakazoid!, so I'm familiar via parody, as well as cultural osmosis.
Oop, they've said the rhyme three times!
