SunnyHello Nice effects though.

BallWubba Wow! What a bizarre film! Unfortunately the few funny moments there were were quite overshadowed by it's completely weird and random vibe throughout.

Bergorks If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.

Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

Osmosis Iron The first sequel to be even better than the original! Almost all of the cast and the director return for this follow up. A direct continuation of the story that picks up right after the first one ended. Everything good about the first is also present here and more, everything is done a little bit better! It also follows the book a bit more closely than the first. And the Monster talks! Probably the best Universal Horror movie there is!

LouAbbott Good sequels are the hardest pictures to make. "The cat is out of the bag." If you've seen the original film, you know the theme of the sequels. No big surprises. IMO, only a few sequels were better than the original. "Dawn of the Dead." "Godfather II." And the over the top "Texas Chainsaw Massacre II" and "Death Wish 3." "The Bride of Frankenstein" is the best of all of the above. The worst: Every sequel to "Jaws."

Ian (Flash Review)Will the Frankenstein monster be able to find a friend or even love? This film is even more visually striking than the original with aggressive and stunning shot framing and the film quality is a step up as well. In this film, which picks up right after the first film ends, Dr. Frankenstein wants to create a mate for the monster. He has already made several miniature human-like beings he keeps in glass pedestals, which are nifty and creative film techniques for the 30's. In the meantime the monster has escaped his shackles and befriends a blind hermit. Thinking the monster is just a normal person who cannot speak, he connects with him as he himself cannot see. The monster having finally made a friend gets chased away by the search party. Having lost a new friend, will the monster finally get a female mate to befriend or to marry? There are so many famous moments from this film that are referenced still today. The brides white streak in the hair and the scientist's reaction to his success. This is a must see film.

tforbes-2 For me, "Bride of Frankenstein" excels as a film in general because it is more than a horror film. The humor is abundant, and we see real humanity in Boris Karloff's portrayal of the monster.And Elsa Lanchester is just simply great in her dual role as the Bride and in her other role as well. In the latter, you see how really beautiful she was.I was struck by how old looking Ernest Thesiger was in this film. He was only 56 years old, yet looked older than old. I remember him from his last role, 1961's "The Roman Spring of Mrs. Stone," which he must have filmed either at the end of 1960 or very beginning of 1961. His role as the villain was a really good call!Add to that amazing special effects, and you have not so much as a horror story, but a film tragedy that has a lot of heart—and humor— to it.
