classic love it
My all -time favorite movie, meaning it was my favorite movie when I was eight, and it was also my favorite movie when I was sixty. Tragic, hilarious, subversive, and humane, it's also a milestone in queer themes, expressed in universal terms that everyone can understand.
The best Ever!!! I was scared as a child when I saw it. Actress that played the bride. And there’s Boris the king!
Probably the best sequel in the franchise.
Truly a classic! Frankenstein is my favorite Classic Universals Monster and while the Bride appears for less than five minutes, she has become an icon in the classic horror genre. One of my favorite stories, I always feel sad for the Creature/Creation. His last words always bring me to tears. Happy that Shudder added it to their service even for a limited time.
