Frankenstein (1931)
Description
Dr. Frankenstein tries to break the rules of humanity and perform a dangerous task by trying to create a new human being by assembling parts of a deceased man. It may be a very difficult task but the doctor will succeed in that task, but to no avail will create a beast that deals with life and people in a very horrific way. Henry tries to create from death something real that deals with others, but things may turn out later.

The film is unique in Whale's work in that the horror is played absolutely straight, and it has a weird fairytale beauty not matched until Cocteau made La Belle et la Bête.

Shocking in its day and still a genuinely creepy experience, director James Whale's primitive yet enthralling interpretation of Mary Shelley's classic tale of man playing God is the most influential genre movie ever made.
October 10, 2012
The film has a touching, almost childlike humanity that allowed audiences to actually identify with the monster.

...a watchable yet consistently uneven horror flick that feels long even at 70 minutes...
June 05, 2007
One of the most deservedly famous and chilling horror films of all time.

James Whale has done a great job in his direction. This is not an easy thing to direct -- just how far to go in playing upon an audience's credulity, it's sympathy, it's nerves. Whale seems to have gone far enough, but not too far.

Classic monster movie still electrifies.

[Whale] did it in the Grand Guignol manner, with as many queer sounds, dark corners, false faces and cellar stairs as could possibly be inserted.

Frankenstein is a horror film that turns (miraculously) into an existential tale of man's fear of abandonment
September 24, 2007
Maximum of stimulating shock is there, but the thing is handled with subtle change of pace and shift of tempo that keeps attention absorbed to a high voltage climax.
October 20, 2016
The most influential horror film ever made, this stark and stylish work has a weird fairytale beauty.
