Review of Bride of Frankenstein (1935) by Thomas S — 22 Mar 2008
One of the rare cases where the sequel vastly surpassed the original film. In spite of a star-making dialogue-less performance by Karloff, Frankenstein in the original was far from the speaking and philosophical creation of the Mary Shelley novel.
While not exactly the intelligent monster of the novel, Frankenstein here is allowed speech and is presented repeatedly in a very favorable light - a man who appreciates good liquor, food, music and friendship.
