If you see a movie called Frankenstein Created Woman, you know what you're getting. The cheesy title (which grammatically incorrect, it should be called Frankenstein Created a Woman) is sign that by this point in the series, they weren't even trying to be good.
This is the sort of crap you expect to be mocked on Mystery Science Theatre 3000, not from Hammer Studios.
Completely disregarding the other films in the series, we find Baron Frankenstein (Peter Cushing) living and working under his own name as quack doctor in small town. He is aided by Hans (Robert Morris) a young man from the town whose murderous father was executed (I am I the only one who finds it a little, uh, homosexual that Frankenstein always has a hunky young guys working for him?). Anyway, Hans goes into the town to get some chapaign to celebrate the Baron's latest discover and breaks three rude rich guys who are mocking Christina (Susan Denberg), a young woman with a scarred face and heavy limp. I still thought she was hot, and Hans does too, so he has sex with her. While they are getting it one, one of the rich guys kills somebody and Hans gets blamed. Not wanting to reveal his alibi for reasons I don't quite understand, he gets executed. Finding out what happened, Christina kills herself as well. This would seem to be a borderline Shakespearean tragedy if Frankenstein wasn't around to keep Hans' soul in a box while he fixes all of Susan's problems in addition to bringing her back to life (despite the fact that she now has large breasts, I no longer thought she was hot). Then, he decides to put Hans' soul in Christina's body, and then she goes out to get revenge on the people who killed him/her.
The usually inaffable Terrence Fisher makes an error of judgment here. He thinks that this might actually work if played straight. The only way this material could possibly succeed would be as an absurd comedy. The only actor in the film who has an charisma is Cushing as the enduringly arrogant Frankenstein, who is not quiet as mean or insane as he was in the other movies. Although this Hammer's second longest running series after the Dracula pictures, it's no where near as good. Only one of the first four installments rose above bad. Not only has the well dried up, but somebody also leaned over and threw up into it.
