You have to expect some aspect of ridiculousness from Hammer Horror, for the most part, and this one concerns itself not with how mad Dr. Frankenstein is, or how evil he is, but some notion of the existence of souls. It's slightly interesting in that respect, and the final chapter is some true horror material (nowhere near as tame as previous entries), so I rank it as the best of this particular Frankenstein series.

after having seen a couple awesome hammer movies this is a harsh reminder of why cushing is associated with bad b-movies and hammer is remembered for pumping out them likewise.

While this film attempts to build up it's plot and characters for the finale it falls short.It takes way to long to get going and never really offered any thing that engaged me all that much.

the most thematically rich of the hammer horror movies i've seen. really strong stuff, but fun too.

Not a bad film at all. This version is concerned more with the soul, than just bringing a being to life. Definitely worth a look if you like Peter Cushing Frankenstein films.

"...a great Cushing Frankenstein film."

Surprisingly good Hammer horror. The three fancylads kinda remind me of Alex's droogs in A Clockwork Orange.
