Chaney drank steadily throughout the day, the giant six-nine, 284 pound brute sipping from a flask between takes, so that by afternoon, he sometimes had no idea what he was doing.

At least now, on Tales of Tomorrow, he had realized he only needed to use brute strength when the cameras were rolling. So for the next run-through, in the scene in the dining room of Dr. Frankenstein’s castle where the monster knocks the maid and butler to the ground, then rips apart the furniture, Chaney went ahead and knocked the two down, but when it came time to throw a chair, he hesitated, then gently set it back down. Two scenes later, same thing: chair was lifted, chair was gently set back down. For good measure, Chaney threw in a pantomime of what he planned to do with the chair when it really counted, pretending to hurtle it to the ground with the full force of his massive frame.
