BRIDE OF FRANKSTEIN



THE BRIDE OF FRANKSTEIN IS A HORROR MOVIE AS GOOD AS IT GETS. OF COURSE, THIS FILM IS FAR MORE THAN A HORROR MOVIE. IT IS AN EXTREMELY WITTY, VIGOROUSLY ACTED BLACK COMEDY AND ONE THAT HAS A BRAIN EVERY STEP OF THE WAY, AND WE'RE NOT JUST TALKING FRANKENSTEIN'S BRAIN. THERE IS SO MUCH GOING ON HERE THAT MULTIPLE VIEWINGS ARE A MUST. JAMES WHALE WAS A GIFTED DIRECTOR, WHOSE LEGACY GOT A GOOD, POSITIVE JOLT WITH THE MORE RECENT MOVIE ABOUT HIS LIFE, "GODS AND MONSTERS". BRIDE IS DAZZLING CINEMA FROM FIRST TO LAST. EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS MOVIE WORKS FULL TILT FROM THE WONDERFUL MUSIC TO SPECTACULAR SETS AND ART DECORATION. A CLASSIC FEAST THAT ONE NEVER WILL FORGET.
