I wonder if the Monster will turn out to be as handy as the Golem with a feather duster You can use him s a side table, as you can put your cold drinks on is head and they won't spill. Scary AND practical. Perfect! |

When does The Hand show up? After it's had a wrist. |

It's interesting to compare the various Dr. Frankensteins. Colin Clive and Basil Rathbone both played the character very manically.

Basil played Son of F as slowly going mad before your eyes. Edited by Brad on 18-03-2026 20:06 . . Cockatoo? What Cockatoo? I don't see a Cockatoo! |

Am I remembering correctly? The Son of Frankenstein film is the one which has the castle self destruct lever?

Just look at the monster's feet. They should have called him Bigfoot.

The monster seemed to be green. I read that they did that as it was the only color that offered a corpse like pallor in the extant black and white film. . . Cockatoo? What Cockatoo?

They wanted to make this an artsy film, so they hired all of Hollywood's British actors to posh it up.

Are we going to have one lighted scene in the film? Looks like they forgot to pay the electric bill. I haven't seen this one in years and it's like watching something new.
