Plot Summary:
|
Head James Whale's through Frankenstein's bogeyman movies from the 1930s.
FRANKENSTEIN: (1931)
This is James Whale's from the word go neat, expressionist layer to grace the Universal horror cycle of the 1930s and 1940s (DRACULA, THE MUMMY). Scientist Henry Frankenstein (Colin Clive) and his hunchbacked assistant, Fritz (Dwight Frye), embark on an unholy deputation by stealing a remains from a graveyard and a human brain from a medical college. Unbeknownst to Frankenstein, however, Fritz takes a impetuous and hellish unconventional mastermind. Henry's out of the ordinary letters beside his experiments worry his fiancee, Elizabeth (Mae Clark), and friends Victor (John Boles) and Dr. Waldman (Edward Van Sloan). They show up at Frankenstein's laboratory to find the spectacular episode of the universe below way--and Frankenstein intoxicated with his own ecstatic power. FRANKENSTEIN is in diverse ways the archetypal abhorrence classic, virtually creating the class itself, leading to numerous sequels and myriad imitators. Whale's ability to exude humanity to the Monster is anybody of the film's most stunning successes.
... BRIDE OF FRANKENSTEIN: (1935)
The supplement to FRANKENSTEIN is considered joke of the vanquish horror films of all at intervals. After the Monster is trapped in a windmill set alight, Dr. Henry Frankenstein assumes that the fiendish executioner has perished...but he's not unfeeling yet. Rising from the rubble, the Monster is on the loose again--lonely and misunderstood, and punishing those who meet him. Frankenstein wants to dismiss from one's mind his creation, but the evil Dr. Pretorius (Ernest Thesiger) has a diabolical plan to create a alter ego in search the Monster, and Frankenstein must accede or else.
