The Bride of Frankenstein
Dr. Frankenstein (Colin Clive) makes a bride for his creature (Boris Karloff), and all hell breaks loose. Arguably better than the orginal - both emotionally and stylistically - James Whale's moody sequel to his 1931 classic "Frankenstein" best illustrates the director's macabre sense of humour and filmmaking talent. Elsa Lanchester plays a dual role as "the bride" and as author Mary Shelley. Whale personally designed Lanchester's spiffy hair-do.
