The Curse of Frankenstein


The Curse of Frankenstein
Victor frankenstein builds a creature and brings it to life. But his creature behaves not as he intended. Studio: Warner Home Video Release Date: 02/14/2006 Starring: Peter Cushing Hazel Court Run time: 83 minutes Rating: Nr Director: Terence Fisher
Customer Review: I like it better than Hammer's Dracula
The first of Hammer's monster movies, this one is less known today than Horror of Dracula. Both star Peter Cushing (here as Baron Frankenstein) and Christopher Lee (as the creature). Personally I like this one better than Dracula. Peter Cushing is given more opportunity to shine in this role than he got as Van Helsing, and the Jimmy Sangster's script is well written and character driven. There are many great scenes between Viktor Frankenstein and his mentor, Paul. And Christopher Lee is a good creature, very different from that of Karloff. Recommended for all horror fans.
Customer Review: Total Pleasure
These Hammer horror gems are a must for anyone seeking to be entertained by great actors. Peter Cushing was in a class by himself when it came to self-parody and cockiness.
