Bride of Frankenstein
October 15, 2016, 7:30 PM
With a special guest performance by cast members of the Waterville Opera House’s Young Frankenstein, opening October 21!
Digital version of the black and white classic, a far greater film than the original Frankenstein, from the same director, James Whale, in which the monster realizes he needs a mate.
“James Whale’s quirky, ironic 1935 self-parody is, by common consent, superior to his earlier Frankenstein (1931). Whale added an element of playful sexuality to this version, casting the proceedings in a bizarre visual framework that makes this film a good deal more surreal than the original. Elsa Lanchester is the reluctant bride; Boris Karloff returns as the love-starved monster. Weird and funny” — Chicago Reader.
(Unrated, 75 min.)
