And this week's Friday night movie has been....Frankenstein (1931)!
Well it's October so of course I'm going to see some horror movies these next few weeks. And what better way to start than with the granddaddy of them all.
I often find it a danger to approach a movie from the pre-New Hollywood era as they tend to date rather horribly. That is not the case here. This still holds up by providing plenty of mood and unease. And it all holds together with Boris Karloff's performance of the monster with both freakish and humane.
Not much else I can say except it seems it's reputation as classic is justified and looks set to endure.
