. I've read the book, so I'm always wary of the treatment books get from Hollywood. After getting the case from the library, I noticed several other Frankenstein movies were included in the case, all of which I think I'd heard about decades ago.Where the book is told as a flashback, the movie version is not. The movie is worth watching for the classic moments, like Frankenstein's reaction when the monster comes alive. Things go poorly from then on. Where the book has a tragic ending with Frankenstein pursuing his monster, the movie ends completely differently with a classic mob chasing the monster in the dark.
If you decide to watch Bride of Frankenstein, it begins by contradicting the end of the first movie. I couldn't watch it all of the way through, and I didn't even try with the later three movies in the case.
