Rating: 5/5 --
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.

Radio Times
[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.

TIME Magazine
The most influential horror film ever made, this stark and stylish work has a weird fairytale beauty.

Village Voice
One of the most deservedly famous and chilling horror films of all time.

Chicago Reader
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.

Hollywood Reporter
The film has a touching, almost childlike humanity that allowed audiences to actually identify with the monster.

Combustible Celluloid
Frankenstein's "it's alive!" moment has left more of an imprint upon science fiction and horror filmmaking than any other big-screen scene before or since.
