Perhaps the greatest example of a sequel surpassing its original, this follow-up to 1931’s Frankenstein is sheer brilliance. It features some of the most memorable scenes in cinema history, notably the monster's encounter with a lonely hermit and the introduction of 'The Bride'. The film is regarded as the high point of the Universal Studios horror films and stands as a testament to the genius of director James Whale. This follow-up to 1931’s
