Q Network Film Desk

a ludicrous horror-western hybrid featuring awful acting, silly dialogue, cheap stock footage, and wooden direction

2 1/2 stars is all I can muster on this one and the only reason I gave you that many was it was just so stupid. It was funny to watch James Welch, Henderson, Arkansas, July 18, 2023.

This blending of the western and horror genres is the thing I like best about this movie. Here the wanted outlaw Jesse James and his large oafish pal hide out in the castle of Frankenstein's daughter who uses his big friend for a dastardly experiment. Not as much happens in this movie as you'd hope, but it's still a bit fun for what it is.

You gotta love this movie if only for the title and the concept. It has the usual cowboy/Mexican girl romance sub-plot,, and the devious evil scientists. While the whole movie is pretty much known from the title itself, it's not everyone that can say they seen Jesse James meets Frankensteins daughter. Just some great fun.

***Due to the recent RT changes that have basically ruined my past reviews, I am mostly only giving a rating rather than a full review.***

Don't watch unless you're a really big Frankenstein fan who must see all related movies...or, if you're a really big western fan, like me, and you basically watch any western themed movie you find. Either way, there are many better things to do with your time.

While westerns and sci-fi crossovers are usually interesting, this one ends up feeling dull and slow- though still entertaining enough to sit through. The characters aren't as interesting as one might think, and the plot is generic. Watchable, but not memorable.
