The Bride of Frankenstein (1935)


Type: Gallery Image | Not Vetted



The appearance of the monster in The Bride of Frankenstein does not differ from the first movie in this series, Frankenstein (1931). The monster is still a green, sickly-looking creature; however, his only attribute to Shelley’s description of the monster is that Whale decided for the creature to try and learn to speak. In Shelley’s novel, the creature is communicative. That plan was thwarted in the movie, but regardless the monster presents himself differently in this movie than before. Nevertheless, the monster still has the defined screws coming out of his neck, but his hair is less abundant in The Bride of Frankenstein than it was in Frankenstein.
