Movie Review
For a old movie this was not bad for a Frankenstein tale since there many tales it was creepy but well put together from start to the end the only problem I had was this movie was short the movie last only 1 hour and 10 mins there could of done a little bit more though but I guess I should not complain though because some movies were short back in the days other then that had no problems it was a good movie from start to the end.
Scary Moments
less but Frankenstein monster look good and scary well done on makeup there also this next moment was can of odd and scary when little girl got toss in the lake by Frankenstein monster what was odd about her being killed is the water look shallow too so that what I call creepy and odd moment but ok I guess.
Acting
Boris Karloff was very good playing the monster himself been a fan of stuff for years he is indeed a icon for years to come and after this one he proved it indeed that for sure not bad acting in this one it had a great cast for a 1931 movie.
Final thoughts
not a bad movie but a good one in my view which I enjoy so if your looking for a classic old movie this one is for you you will like it I think now there is Bride of Frankenstein I do plan on watching and review it in the future when unsure hopefully soon.
What next
next Friday will be a review a movie that I see for the first time it came from 1980's called Revenge of the nerds so have a good weekend everybody.

6/10 out 10 for good
Frankenstein 1931 trailer
It's definitely not really scary but it is a classic movie. I was wondering if you had ever seen it or not. The sequel with his bride is more funny than scary but her shrieking is a bit off.
