“Bride of Frankenstein” is the 1935 sequel to the wildly popular horror film “Frankenstein” (1931). Director James Whale and actors Colin Clive (Dr. Frankenstein) and Boris Karloff (Frankenstein’s monster) all reprise their roles from the first film, with the addition of Elsa Lanchester who plays the roles of Mary Shelley and the Monster’s bride. The film opens with Percy Shelley and Lord Byron complimenting Mary Shelley on her Frankenstein story, and she tells them that there’s more story to tell, after which we are transported to the conclusion of the first film. While the Villagers are cheerful, thinking that the Monster is dead, it is revealed that both the Monster and Dr. Frankenstein have survived, though Frankenstein is badly injured. He is nursed back to health by his fiancée Elizabeth, and he denounces his previous work as a grave mistake. However, Dr. Frankenstein’s old mentor Doctor Septimus Pretorius visits him and asks for his cooperation in creating a mate for the Monster. Meanwhile, the monster is free, running around the countryside and getting into all sorts of trouble. Eventually, he comes upon Dr. Pretorius and his helpers digging a corpse. When Dr. Frankenstein refuses to help Dr. Pretorius, he has the Monster kidnap Elizabeth. Dr. Frankenstein helps Dr. Pretorius finish the work on Monster’s bride, but when the revived creature is seemingly disgusted by the monster, it goes into a fit of rage, allowing Dr. Frankenstein and Elizabeth to flee before destroying the laboratory with Dr. Pretorius and his would-be bride still inside, sending all three of them to their death.
