Who is not familiar with the legend of Frankenstein's monster? In Frankenstein the Baron (Colin Clive) created a man-made man in his quest to perfect a superior physical being. Though of a gentle heart, the creature inspires fear and loathing, even in his creator. In this fine sequel, Boris Karloff reprises his immortal role and falls prey to the wicked Dr. Pretorius (Ernest Thesiger), who uses the creature in his search for power, forcing Frankenstein to make a woman for him. In one of film histories most amazing screen spectacles, the Baron fashions an artificial woman, a bride for his lonely creation, who aspires only to be human. A timeless performance by Boris Karloff as the Monster, and James Whale's heart-breaking vision of the plight of the non-man ends in calamity and one of the screen's most famous utterances - "We belong dead."
