That was an ocelot that Anne Francis as Honey West had for a pet. And it was John Richardson that she had for her other pet. I taped 20 of these off TVLand some years ago.

For me, the Universal Frankenstein films get the nod, mostly because they have a bit more continuity to them. When the word was given from on high to write another sequel, the scriptwriter (Curt Siodmak or whoever) had to come up with a realistic explanation for the Monster's survival from the previ...
