Ultimate Guide: Frankenstein Must Be Destroyed (1969)
In Stock NOW!
The Ultimate Guide to Frankenstein Must Be Destroyed introduces the people who took Mary Shelley’s immortal creation in a new and disturbing direction. Peter Cushing’s precise command of the character of the baron shines through in a performance both icy and engaging, and he’s in good company. As the monster – in scientific if not ethical – terms, character star Freddie Jones turns the unfortunate combination of Professor Richter and Dr Brandt into an unforgettably tragic figure. Meanwhile, romantic leads Veronica Carlson and Simon Ward as Anna and Karl provide a heartbreaking insight into the ruined lives left in the wake of Baron Frankenstein’s ruthless ambition. Fact-packed biographies take you yet further into the movie’s unique world.
