Some of those 10s could have been higher. Wolf Man, Frankenstein, and Frankenstein AT LEAST go to 11.

[Russ]

That would make Frankenstein a 22.

Which is cool with me.

[The Mike]

That would make Frankenstein a 22.

Which is cool with me.Yeah, that made sense. :lol:

I had typed Creature in their, but then was reordering them for some reason and felt like Frankenstein deserved more love. Which, you're right, it does.

[Yxklyx]

I kid you not. There's a "Frankenstein Mausoleum" just a few blocks from my house. It's attached to a synagogue. I need to get a picture of it. It even has it written in old gothic lettering in stone.

Veidt's portrayal notwithstanding, The Man Who Laughs was a bore structurally and emotionally.

Two of my favorite shots in all of classic cinema are in this movie: when they're dropping the pellets in the water and when the creature is swimming underneath the woman scientist. A marvelous construction.
