Frankenstein Meets the Wolf ManActually, I don't believe they were ever properly introduced. In the frame above, Frankie seems even to have extended a greeting hand, but is taken aback at Wolfie's rebuff.

Ever see Schlock, John Landis's satirical 1973 directorial debut?

There is no one named April in the film, and the time of year is never specified. What's worse, we still keep getting an April every year. When will they end?

The Fall of the Roman Empire (1964) dir: Anthony Mann The Western Roman Empire did not fall for another three hundred or so years after the time in which this film was set, and the Eastern Roman Empire for another twelve hundred or so years.

Maybe a misleading title ?... The film is actually depicting the onset of corruption and decadence which led to Rome's final demise. Mann was inspired by Edward Gibbon's six-volume series The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire which was adapted by blacklisted screenwriters Ben Barzman & Philip Yordan, the prologue was written by historian Will Durant.

One of the worst cases of misleading film titles - it was set during summertime, for goodness sake.

The film is actually depicting the onset of corruption and decadence which led to Rome's final demise.You are right. This period saw its onset. Guys like Nero, Tiberius, Caligula (and a few dozen others) were not corrupt and decadent at all, then? Actually the fall of Rome was due to population movements and climate change. Edward Gibbon's six-volume series The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire which was adapted by blacklisted screenwriters Ben Barzman & Philip YordanI am sure they studied every page of its six volumes religiously. Gibbon was an Old Boy of my school, and I had the brief honor of being secretary of the Gibbon Society, a debating society. Because of my fecklessness it was shaping up to be the only school year with no debates organized , so I was persuaded to resign. "Et tu, Ffolliott Minor?"

Slaughter On 10th Avenue (1956). No slaughter. the movie is named for a jazz ballet composed by Richard Rodgers for the 1936 Broadway musical “On Your Toes.” Some of the music is heard in the underscore of this film but there is no other connection.
