ArtsEmerson: The World On Stage presents The Bride of Frankenstein. This classic horror film directed James Whale returns to the Frankenstein story with cast members from the original movie, including the legendary actor Boris Karloff. Dr. Frankenstein and his monster are not, in fact, dead as was implied by the end of the first film. They’re back, and this time the monster wants a companion. With the persuasion of Dr. Pretorius, Frankenstein is convinced to create a bride for his monster. The results are, of course, nearly disastrous. Featuring a haunting score and cutting edge technology for the time, The Bride of Frankenstein serves as a prime example of the classic horror film from eras passed.
