FRANKENSTEIN CREATED WOMAN d. Terence Fisher, 1967 at The Prince Charles (04 OCT 18:10) / Part of THE FEMALE OF THE SPECIES IS MORE DEADLY THAN THE MALE.
- “When his young lab assistant Hans (Robert Morris) is unjustly executed ‒ and Han’s lover Christina (Susan Denberg) drowns herself out of grief ‒ Baron Frankenstein (Peter Cushing) seizes the opportunity to test his theory that the soul does not depart the body at the moment of death. Resurrecting Han’s soul in Christina’s body, the Baron appears to have achieved a miracle. But two spirits inhabit her body now ‒ one seeking redemption, and the other bent on bloody revenge.”
