Fourth Hammer Frankenstein.
24 November 2013
Terence Fisher directed this fourth "Frankenstein" film in the Hammer series that sees Peter Cushing return as Baron Frankenstein, still experimenting with life, though now interested in the soul, and when it departs the body, which he recently experimented on himself with the help of his new assistant Dr. Hertz(played by Thorley Walters) His young helper Hans(played by Robert Morris) gets into trouble with the law and is hanged; his distraught girlfriend(played by Susan Denberg)whose father was the murder victim, drowns herself only to be resurrected by Frankenstein with the mind of Hans! Together(sort of) they set on a campaign of revenge against the real killers... Ambitious sequel is nicely directed and acted(if contrived), with the Baron in a mostly benevolent mood; pity it didn't last...
