The Bride of Frankenstein (1935)

About this episode

The episode discusses the 1935 film The Bride of Frankenstein, exploring its characters, tone, and legacy as a sequel.

This week we go all the way back to 1935 to discuss the original bride and one of the cinema's earliest sequels with The Bride of Frankenstein. Journey with us as we discuss this second part that introduces zany characters, a campy tone, and a revised look for Karloff's Monster. Is this one of the best sequels ever made or is it simply too short to tell the story? So pour some rye, grab your Frankenstein high top shoes and Bride wig, and get ready for a new era of Gods and Monsters. Cheers!
