Auction History Result 9h0546 ISLAND MONSTER Belgian 1957 completely different art of Boris Karloff, Franca Marzi! Date Sold 7/11/2021 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original 1957 (from the first release of this movie in Belgium) Vintage Theatrical Folded Belgian Movie Poster (measures 13 3/4" x 22 1/4" [35 x 57 cm]) (Learn More) II Mostro Dell'isola (released in the U.S. only on TV in 1957 as "The Island Monster"), the 1953 Roberto Bianchi Montero Italian drug crime thriller starring Boris Karloff, Franca Marzi, Renato Vicario, Jole Fierro, Carlo Duce, and Patrizia Remiddi. Note that this was a low budget Italian crime melodrama that was filmed in Italy and, as was done at that time, non-Italian speaking actors were dubbed into Italian, and in this case, that meant Boris Karloff's voice was not used in the released movie. When it finally was released in the U.S. in 1957 (on TV only), they tried to help create an audience by calling it "The Island Monster", so that it would sound like a horror movie, but it is not. Worse yet, a Karloff impersonator was hired to dub his voice back into English! So the movie is an interesting curiosity, and finding movie paper from it is incredibly difficult (there was likely no movie paper created for the U.S. TV release).
