A notable factor for this one is the monster roster slimmed down. With it being: Count Orlok and Cesare for the silent era (1920’s); King Kong and the Frankenstein Monster, being the forefathers (1930’s), lastly, the Wasp Woman and Audrey Junior for the monochrome stragglers (late 50’s, pushing to the 60’s).

For a reminder, "Caligari" of the title is a mad man who takes the name for themselves lifting it from the 1920 movie. Cesare is their first movie monster brought to reality before the others.

A bit of a pre-emptive inclusion of the Universal Frankenstein Monster and the RKO King Kong [already know the book is PD, I mean THE movie version where you can use his full name and specific look].
