...Clive as the Mad/Genius Doctor Frankenstein and Dwight Frye has is slightly retarded and deranged hunchbacked assistant. Obsessed with the possibility of producing life from dead body parts, Frankenstein pushes the boundaries of science to the max. Eventually after obtaining parts from the local morgue they have a male the body prepared, (Should of gone to the body shop). all they need now is a brain. Frankenstein's obsession at playing God, makes ...
...But is it the life Frankenstein wanted? Has he created the ultimate Man or Monster? A very dated movie now, but one I think the older generation would still enjoy, even if just for remembering past movies, My teenagers found it quite boring and certainly not frightening in the least, in fact if it wasn't so boring said one, it would be comical. I quite preferred some of the later versions, with the flute playing Egore with his crooked broken neck. ... Read review

...splat/gore movie Neil? Not in the slightest. My personal favourite, the film I love above all others barely scrapes into the horror genre anymore. A film so old it's only just in the sound era. After my review of Singin' In The Rain many may assume that that's the film I worship but the truth is even more bizarre, for indeed my celluloid love affair is with someone far different to Gene Kelly or Judy Garland. My most revered film of all times is...drum ...
...An ancient horror film from the depths of Hollywood history. And a sequel at that. All of this is true - The Bride IS a sequel and it IS ancient (1935 to be precise). For whatever reason (and hopefully I'll detail one or two of them) though it's held me spellbound ever since and hopefully you'll forgive me this labour of love as I review it. Will I be wearing rose tinted spectacles? Probably, but maybe I can inject enough enthusiasm to get more people ... Read review

The most important,horror movie ever made,with Boris Karloff joining the immortals as the flat headed,big-booted,sad eyed monster-whom director James Whale made a resonant figure by dressing him up like one of the scarred WW1 veterans then on the skids all over America. Colin Clive,s neurotic mad scientist and Dwight Frye,s hunchbacked brain dropper,collaborate on the making of a man,but the innocent turn,s savage when mistreated by all and ... Read review

Advantages: Great entertainment, hilarious!
Disadvantages: Not sure it's supposed to be funny!

In the early nineteen forties, a young boy resents his mother's intrusion into his bedroom and takes an axe to her, pretending afterwards that he was an innocent bystander. Some forty years later, young girls on a college campus begin to be picked off by an electric saw-wielding madman. It seems that the killer must be someone on the campus, perhaps a teacher, and the police officers in charge of the case, along with a fast-thinking student, do their ...
...continue, each one gorier than the last. Will they ever catch the murderer? And what is the link with the young boy? For some strange reason, there is a following for horror films that are so bad that they are good - I, for one, am a fan. Pieces, or Mil Gritos Tiene La Noce (One Thousand Cries Has the Night) as it was originally called, is one of these films with bells on. It is a Spanish-made film (hence the Spanish name), but has a really American ... Read review

~♦ INTRO ♦~ Well, once again they pulled my leg... Once again I saw a poster and thought I found a new horror movie to put to the test. Once again I sat down for the vision and once again I've been disillusioned... I wonder if I will ever be able to find a nice movie! ~♦ PLOT ♦~ Two glaringly amateurish journalists decide to shot a documentary about firemen and their life in the fire station. Fit out only ...
