It is also interesting that Hammer brought back the Universal stable of monsters with great success (shades of 1939), but Uni never responded with new monster adventures of their own. It took a little outfit like AIP to pick up the mantle (and make a fortune in the process). Perhaps the regime at Universal felt that the "old" monters were beneath them, or outdated, in favor of giant bugs and atomic horrors?
Or Doris and Rock.
