Review of The Curse of Frankenstein (1957) by Marilee A — 31 Oct 2011
I'd forgotten how actually good this is.Like Mary Shelly's Frankenstein with De Niro, it shows Baron Victor Von Frankenstein's(Peter Cusching/Melvin Hayes as the young Victor) background in learning as a young man in Switzerland, & how & why he became the Scientist who played God & tried to re-create the perfect man, it was to benefit mankind.
The Times Historically in Science were very experimental, he was carrying on work started by others.The "Creature" was played sympathetically by Christopher Lee, more sad, than Scary.More enjoyable than I had rememered.
