Frankenstein

This movie strikes a chord with me, because the monster is portrayed so sympathetically, I always see the monster as the victim not the villain.

I read the book and loved it! That’s been so many years ago that I am amazed that I remember it! But that’s what makes a classic novel is when it is so good that you remember it for the rest of your life! To me, the story got not one, but TWO classic film adaptations: This wonderful gem and the 90s horror movie Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein! Which one is better? Hard to judge because both are FANTASTIC!!!

I believe Bela Lugosi rejecting the role of the Monster was the smart move of his life and career. Karloff made the definitive version of Frankenstein's Monster a household name thanks to Jack Pierce's makeup.

GREAT looking HD transfer of a classic- just enough grain to preserve the look of the film without polishing it to death the way certain companies tend to.

Not sure why itunes has this movie as HD! It clearly is not. The movie has so much grain I could not watch the first 5 minutes! Horrible picture quality! Wast of money!

I Love This Movie It Is A Very Good Classic

this movie is important for so many reasons. It's the breakout role of the great Boris Karloff. It is also the debut of makeup artist Jack Pearice who defined the monsters look. This is the monster we remember and this is the look we all compare other versions with. The story is basic and based on a stage play rather than the book. Karloffs acting takes this Monster and makes you feel sorry for him and makes you feel his pain. This movie had many parts edited out in 1933 and had a disclaimer / warning inserted as this was heavy stuff 75 years ago. Thankfully all the cut footage was restored and the movie Re-mastered so we can enjoy this true classic the way it was ment to be viewed.

This is NOT the restored version of Frankenstein from Universal. Scratches, dust and hissing are very prevalent. If you were hoping for better, you need to go elsewhere.

I had never seen this very early version of the Monster's plight with Boris Karloff brilliantly portraying him. An oldy but goody!

They is no respect for this guy now a days because it all about vampire and werewolf will guest what……forget them you can’t about vampire and werewolf,Without talking about The Frankenstein monster.
