This, the 7th issue of Marvel's MONSTERS OF THE MOVIES, is a special Hammer HORROR OF DRACULA issue. Most of it is taken up by a sort of "filmbook" (made popular by FAMOUS MONSTERS OF FILMLAND) which is a full story of the movie adapted from the screenplay. Remember, this was during the time when seeing your favorite monster movie was in the theater. The world-changing first Sony Betamax video player wouldn't be introduced in the United States until later in the year.

  2. I never realized that movies like War Of The Worlds, Earth Vs. Flying Saucers, Mars Attacks and just about any Zombie Apocalypse film ever made left out the part where people are running around screaming, "My bum. My bum. What about my bum? Screw the guns. Grab the damn toilet paper."
