| Review Summary and Plot Commentary about The Bride of Frankenstein |
|---|
This is one of few cases of the sequel being better that the original. This story starts with Mary Wollstonecraft (Elsa) relating the story that follows what happened at the end of Frankenstein. Dr. Praetorious finds the creature and convinces Frankenstein to build him a mate (Elsa also plays the Mate). Ends with everybody being blown up along with the lab.
--Herman the German, Resident Scholar
