Overview

Based on Mary Shelley's novel, Hammer's startling cycle of Frankenstein films were equally as popular—and controversial—as their renowned Dracula series. In the studio's hands, the legend was reborn as explicit thrillers of gothic horror, all in gloriously gory colour. Portrayed by genre icon Peter Cushing, Baron Frankenstein emerged as a fascinating combination of visionary intelligence, heroic passion and diabolical obsession. As for Frankenstein's monsters, these are the creatures that changed the stitched-up face of horror forever. Films included: The Curse of Frankenstein (1957) / The Evil of Frankenstein (1964) / Frankenstein and the Monster from Hell (1974) / Frankenstein Created Woman (1967) / Four Sided Triangle (1953) / Horror of Frankenstein (1970) / The Revenge of Frankenstein (1958).
