Alist ofhorror films released in the1940s. After the success ofSon of Frankenstein (1939), Universal horror caught a second wind and horror films continued to be produced at a feverish pace into the mid-1940s.[1] The early 1940s saw the debut ofLon Chaney Jr. and "The Wolf Man", both of which became fixtures in the Universal landscape. Meanwhile,Count Dracula andFrankenstein's monster appeared in numerous sequels, often together in what was colloquially called "monster rally" films.[2]

Hoping to present a viable alternative to the Universal juggernaut, RKO decided to embark on a series of its own horror films, starting withCat People in 1942. Led by producerVal Lewton and directorJacques Tourneur, this critically acclaimed series focused less on visible horrors and more on the psychological aspects of fear.[3]
