      Audience Member One of the most befuddling films ever created. Things just happen! This is honestly some of the most fun i have had watching a movie though. It is absolutely hilarious to watch. I highly recommend watching it if you love hilariously bad films, like myself. 3/10 Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Audience Member A quartet of hot-air balloonists and their dog crash land on an island inhabited by bikini-clad descendants of an ancient alien race. John Carradine plays Frankenstein. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Audience Member Absolutely nothing to recommend it. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member This is so bad, it's almost unwatchable--my son and I did only thanks to Rifftrax. There is really nothing I can add to the movie synopsis--awful, awful, awful. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Frankenstein Island is a notoriously bad movie made in 1981 that follows a group of men who land on an island and discover lots of wild, exotic and deadly things. There are women abound everywhere, but it's not until you discover the doctor gone mad that you really figure out what's going on. This movie is so bad that they had to steal footage of John Carradine to put in it and slap his name in the credits to help its chances. Cameron Mitchell, a veteran of bad movies, is also in there. The movie put me to sleep several times, I have to admit, so I didn't get everything. But any movie that puts me to sleep can't be good. What I saw of it wasn't good, and I'm kind of sick of seeing this kind of plot in movies anymore. It's really overused and it just makes the classics less special somehow. So yeah, skip this one too. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member I can't believe this movie was trying to be serious! Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
