I went to my first horror movie (“Frankenstein”) around 1957 at the Capitol Theater in Suffolk Square, Malden. I was about eight years old. I had nightmares for days, but I was back again for the next Saturday matinee (“The Giant Tarantula” – nightmares again). They would start the show with a couple of serials (“Flash Gordon” and “Rocketman” e.g.) and follow that up with a horror flick. I loved it.
