Back Story of the HASBRO SIXTH SCALE UNIVERSAL MONSTERS THE BRIDE OF FRANKENSTEIN ACTION FIGURE
She's no blushing bride -- and every bridegroom's nightmare - as the horror begins again in this chilling sequel to the original, which many consider to be the best of the Frankenstein films.
With its constant succession of shocks, shivers and sensations, this second adventure of Dr. Frankenstein and his man-made monster starts with a flashback to the climax of the first film, then brings the audience back to a plot that almost humanizes the frightful creature. Boris Karloff repeats his role as the misunderstood monster, who this time, meets a blind hermit, enjoys music and drink, even learns to speak some English, and now longs for a mate.
Dr. Frankenstein and his insane colleague, Dr. Practorious, create a mate that turns out to be another monstrosity, magnificently played by English actress, Elsa Lanchester. But this bride, presented in the laboratory to the sounds of church bells pealing in the background, has the undeniable look of a woman awoken from the dead. Draped in white robes that cover mummy-wrapped arms that rise ever so slowly, her startled movements are strained, as if she might faint at any moment. Her head, jerking about in strained motions, is crowned with electrified, windswept hair with silver streaks that rip back from her temple. But it is her face - forever haunting, frozen in a perpetual scream of anguish - that captures the instinctual, repulsive response as she hisses and screams at the sight of her betrothed.
From the first, intense sight of The Bride to her questioned reason for her existence, it is not surprising that an ill fate awaits this conceited creature of confused terror in one of the finest films of the horror genre.
