Boring

Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

While the cast is good, I've always found the story, about soul switching, to be lacking. For one thing, does the mind reside in the soul? Or is it a separate entity? That is a question for another day. This movie doesn't have a 'real' monster, just human looking ones seeking out vengeance. For me, one of the lesser entries.

Frankenstein Created Woman centers around Baron Frankenstein trying to re-animate life, so that humans can become immortal. Surprise, surprise but in this film instead of just shocking a corpse with a lightning bolt he is now focused on the role the human soul has in the process of death. The whole process of reanimation as well as what the undead can remember all felt unique and interesting. It might have been passed over in 1967 as this film doesn't appear to be in high regard as other Hammer horror films but from what I have seen this should be somewhere near the top of the list. The downside or real eye rolling aspect of the film was the Baron's assistant. He had to of been one of the most naive characters I have ever seen! I know they have to make him look dumb compared to Frankenstein but come on he is a doctor. Even the towns people picked up the events that took place quicker than the doctor. This was an entertaining film from beginning to end.

This film is not in any way like Bride of Frankenstein (1935) but in a roundabout way it is. The idea of a female creation by Baron Frankenstein but that is the only very loose connection between the two films.Instead of Dr. Frankenstein putting together body parts to create a woman he puts the soul of man inside her... a man that was put to death for murder.The movie is quite interesting to watch. It's a different take on the Frankenstein sagas and I like that about the film. The movie does have a bit of a scare factor with a bit of gore thrown in but not over done on the gore.Great Peter Cushing film -- I would highly recommend it for those seeking out his movies.8/10

I suppose it was inevitable that Hammer would tackle some sort of remake of "The Bride of Frankenstein" at some stage but the not very subtlety titled "Frankenstein Created Woman" goes down a somewhat different route. Firstly it is the Baron himself who is resurrected, (well he was only 'dead' for an hour), by an unlikely Thorley Walters and his handsome, if not very bright, assistant Hans, (Robert Morris), so he can continue with his nefarious schemes. However, this time, instead of some hulking creature he conjures up a sexy and scar-free Susan Denberg into whose body he transposes the soul of the unjustly guillotined Hans. (A nice twist is that Denberg was scarred before being brought back to life rather than after). Given that it could have dipped into the ridiculous at any moment Terence Fisher's film is surprisingly intelligent, (it's got a superb pre-credit sequence and a nicely handled revenge theme). Anthony Hinds wrote the first-rate script under the pseudonym John Elder and once again Peter Cushing proves himself a formidable Dr Frankenstein. It may not be particularly frightening in the conventional sense but it still leaves a clammy feeling nevertheless.
