Robert Great movie, it's truly awesome getting to see movies I never got to see on the big screen, even though I've seen them a hundred times it makes it like a brand new experience, hopefully they keep showing old movies Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/24/23 Full Review Black C โคตรคลาสสิค ตอนนี้กำลังอ่านนิยายอยู่ด้วย แต่ตัวหนังไม่เหมือนในนิยายเลยที่ให้5ดาว เพราะความคลาสสิคล้วนๆ แต่ความสนุกดี(มั้ง) Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/28/25 Full Review Dionisis T Easily one of my biggest disappointments for an old horror classic film... Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 12/14/24 Full Review Jay W In the early days of cinema, Universal Pictures helped form their own genre of film and define what Halloween was for the foreseeable future. In their catalog there are a ton of classic horror stuff that all give the spooky Halloween vibe. But of those over 50 movies, the Frankenstein movies hold up as their very best. The first three with Boris Karloff are all-time greats, but let's focus specifically on this one. The film opens with someone warning the audience of how scary the film is going to be. It is delightfully cheesy and puts the audience is just the right mood for the film. Yes, there is no backing music, nor is there any color. But the film still has an energy and life to it that keeps it entertaining. It helps that it has a short runtime. Despite it being thought of as slow by today's standards, it still holds up all these decades later. This takes quite a bit of creative liberty from the Mary Shelly novel. As a fan of both the book and movie, I can say that the changes the film make are for the better. There are some things that work in a book that don't translate well to film. OK, I will admit that changing his name to "Henry" Frankenstein is odd, but not all that distracting. Chances are, you are familiar with this film simply through cultural osmosis but do yourself a favor and actually watch it. The movie has really taken on a life of its own. Or in other words...it's alive! Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 11/21/24 Full Review Audience Member Frankenstein is held high as a classic horror movie (and should be) but for me it's one of those movies that I respect more than I actually enjoyed. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 11/15/24 Full Review Jurassic P The worst movie of all time. Besides the acting being horrendous the story is horrible and there are so many plot holes. Everything happened because the directors wanted it to happen, not because it actually aligned with what was happening. Things just felt like they happened out of nowhere, not for any specific reason, they just happened. In all, the story moves way to fast, they aren't any actual threats or a real motivation for any of the characters. It's not even good horror wise.
