Review of Bride of the Monster (1955) by Adrian B — 28 Jan 2011
Utterly pointless thriller that lacks severe entertainment value. From what I watched, I think the story revolves around a mad scientist (Bela Lugosi) who tries to make a monster out of a human and fails.
..enlessly, like the film itself. Unlike "Plan 9 from Outer Space" and "Glen and Glenda," both dreary but unfortunately funny films, "Bride of the Monster" offers little entertainment value.
It is so tiresome and talky, and there is no effect, no inadvertant effect that is, as opposed to the other two films. It strays and viewers will be confused to what they just witnessed. Useless film and not worth the watch to see how bad it is because the results are dissapointing.
Although, I guess one funny seen(s) is when the lifeless, rubber octopus eats up his victims, but that does not save the movie. On the other hand, if you would like to see some good thrillers from 1955, check out "The Night of the Hunter" and "Kiss Me, Deadly.
" Their great films. This is NOT!
