Bride of Frankenstein : not quite as good as the original but…

not quite as good as the original but…

the close up shots of the bride make it almost as good. they are just so stunning.

Re: not quite as good as the original but…

yes, there's Elsa lanchester and Ernest Thesiger, and the wonderful music by Franz Waxman. (I loathe Minnie / Una O'Connor, BTW!)
But I, too, prefer the simpler, straight and powerful first movie.

Elsa Lanchester is great in everything.

Re: not quite as good as the original but…

Of course it is a matter of taste, but I definitely enjoy the sequel better. Pretorius and the Blind Man make it a very special movie.
