Frankenstein Must Be Destroyed

(1969)Directed by Terence Fisher101 min · PG-13Horror, Science Fiction
“The Most Frightening Frankenstein Movie Ever!”

A man is taken from an insane asylum, and he dies on the way out. Baron Victor Frankenstein (Peter Cushing) needs the medical data locked in that man's head, so he and his assistant Dr. Karl Holst (Simon Ward) move his brain into a corpse. Terence Fisher films the Baron's blackmailing and cutting in plain, steady shots, with no hurry and no music telling you how to feel.
