nothing like the classics
this was probably the first horror movie that i ever saw. this is the movie that got me into horror movies. boris karloff, to me, is the one of the best horror icons of all time. i was raised on the original universal monster movies, and i loved them then, and i love them now. this is the best version of the mary shelly novel. great acting and atmosphere.
IT really doesn’t matter what you say think or know about this movie, it is a classic, it deserves a 10/10. Even if in my opinion it truly deserves the 9 or 8 since it is such an old classic that is still watched to this day that I really did enjoy it deserves a 10/10. If it wasn’t for this movie and others like it there wouldn’t be some of the movies now adays this movie deserves our respect and loyalty, no one can talk bad about this movie unless they do not love the horror genre, no one can give this a low score or else they are a bunch of retarded f***s or are just not well educated in the ways of horror, gore doesn’t make a good movie (SAW!!!!!!!! im lookin at you), and this movie was just perfect, especially for its time. Give this movie respect and don’t say bad sh** about it, unless you truly don’t understand or respect horror at all. 10/10!
Ah, nothing like the classic roots of horror. I tend to watch : Frankenstein, The Wolfman, Dracula, The Mummy, & Freaks, all on the same night. Fucking great flicks that have stood the test of time. What a creepy atmosphere those films have. When I think of Frankenstein, the first image that comes to mind is the scene of the old windmill with the torch carrying townsfolk coming up the hill. Colin Clive was brilliant as was Karloff. Great flick for the ages!!!
classic
A true horror mastepiece, this is what horror is truly about
Classic horror at its finest. All in All, Do anything to see Frankenstein.
This is a great film. I enjoyed almost everything about it, from the performances to the sets. First time viewers might be suprised at how dark it is. And it gets fairly touching too. Definitely one of the better films from that time period.
Classic horror movie from the good folks over at Universal Studios; the original horror movie creators. I enjoyed this movie, I actually saw it for the first time recently. (Stay away from the awful remake with Robert De Niro) For an old black and white movie, it’s actually pretty fun and I was never bored. I recommend it if you haven’t already seen it, it is a benchmark in horror.
My favorite Universal Classic Monster movie. Never gets old.
