Victor Frankenstein begins a new wave of experiments focused on transplanting a soul from a dead body to another, transforming a crippled scarred girl into a lovely but deadly woman.
This entry in Hammer Films' Frankenstein series features actress Susan Denberg as Frankenstein's latest monster, whom Wikipedia indicates had been a Playboy model, but stays fully clothed on camera. The reverse effect of creating a beautiful monster instead of a grotesque one is an interesting one, but the screenplay doesn't follow through on the possibilities, fashioning a somewhat by-the-numbers revenge plot. Nevertheless, it's diverting and well-photographed, and the filmmakers should be given credit for trying something different, albeit not successfully so.
Greetings!
Thanks for visiting!
