Independents & Documentaries • LES GHOULS - 1958 Teen Monster Movie featuring Roy Thomas and Gary Friedrich of Marvel Comics

Inspired by ABBOTT AND COSTELLO MEET FRANKENSTEIN, six kids from Jackson, Missouri made this 12 minute epic at ground zero of the monster craze. Two of those teens would go on to be writers at Marvel Comics. One of the players thumbs through Famous Monsters of Filmland #1. Besides a werewolf, mad scientist and assistant, there is a Frankensteinian monster that features a lop eye because that’s how monster kids rolled back then.
