Synopsis
The sixth entry in Hammer Films'
Frankenstein
series, this film finds Baron Frankenstein (
Peter Cushing
) in charge of a lunatic asylum. When young doctor Simon Helder (Shane Bryant) is institutionalized for attempting to create synthetic life, Frankenstein is delighted: now he'll have an assistant for his own diabolical experiments. This time out, the monster is played by
David Prowse
, who later went on to international fame as Darth Vader in
Star Wars
(though of course Vader's voice was provided by
James Earl Jones
). A new wrinkle to the old story is the Monster's cannibalistic tendencies, allowing for a number of gruesome, gore-encrusted horror highlights. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
