I thought that this was an excellent sequel to the original Frankenstein. The story was very interesting and entertaining, just like the original film. I actually think this film is better than it's predecessor. There were a lot of briliant scenes, I thought the scene in which Frankenstein becomes friends with a blind man who lives alone in the forrest was beautiful. The ending scene was great as well, after Henry Frankenstein and his wife escape from the tower in which he created the monster, the monster destroyes the building and kills everyone in it (including the bride).

Wow, I don't know about this one. I was recently a little disappointed by my Frankenstein rewatch, and Bride did not address any of the flaws I saw in the original. Indeed, this seems to be the prototype of an IP cash grab that now dominates our modern landscape. A series of implausibilities allows a retcon of the original (turns out, nobody died) and a sequel that hits all the same notes in all the same ways. I was disappointed by this.

I felt like this movie had no reason to be. The bride is there for a very short amount of time and the rest of the time is just people moving places. They humanized the monster just for him to not grow from it by the end of the movie

i enjoyed this very much. the bride not showing up until quite late in the film was a bit annoying, but the monsters character and the development and the learning to speak, i think this was way more fun and cool than the original.

Ernest Thesiger is superb in James Whale's sequel to "Frankenstein" as the scientist who has perfected the art of growing rather than harvesting tissue. When he meets up with Baron Frankenstein's original monster they set about coercing the reluctant Baron to create a wife for the lonely Boris Karlo More

**_Dr. Frankenstein and his former mentor try to create a mate for the monster_**

The monster (Karloff) survives the windmill burning of the previous film and wanders the countryside of Bavaria while Doctor Pretorius (Ernest Thesiger) approaches Baron Frankenstein (Colin Clive) with the idea of c More

What a great old horror movie this is! Actually, there are classic horror elements, but it plays as much more of a tragic comedy.

Karloff as the Monster is incredible. One moment he's raging and frenzied, the next he's calm and caring, even shedding a tear. The scene when a blind man befriends t More

What a strange departure. Where the original _Frankenstein_ was simple but direct, lean and effective and memorable for the right reasons, _Bride of Frankenstein_ is forced, meandering and overproduced.

Disregarding the ending of the initial adventure is a bad way to start, especially when that m More
