The classic Frankenstein is a horror film directed by James Whale in 1931. This genre of film is not my favorite, but I found this film to be interesting and somewhat entertaining. The special effects are really quite impressive given the time period the film was made, especially the electrical current effects during the scene where the monster comes to life. Even more impressive is the that the monster created by Dr. Frankenstein is not cheesy like many supposedly more modern horror films. The lighting, set design and cinematography are all very impressive, and even more so given the technological limitations at that time.
