Both have caused all this misery and horror through their actions; Victor with his pursuit of knowledge and The Monster with his pursuit of revenge. Yet, despite how much they hate each other, they are all they have left, at least until the end when Victor dies.
A very underrated masterpiece which is quite faithful to its source material while adding some elements that Hammer home the novel's theme: DO NOT play God, for that can only bring damnation on thee and thy loved ones.
We’ve had stories telling us the same stuff for thousands of years. Prometheus being punished for eternity to gift man fire, God punishing man for attempting to create the Tower of Babel to spite him as new gods, man punishing ourselves creating the atomic bomb and A.I., etc. It just never stops. One day on my dying days, I’ll have to make up my mind when a robot is carrying me to my bed after a bath to decide wether or not I will recognize them as an individual in case I never have a family to take care of me.
AND you know what else?? She was born in the year of the fire horse (just playing around, I LOVE her) - but I'm also serious about that, you should look up her bio info on imdb, she was born in 1966
Mary Shelly is rolling in her grave. The monster killed Elizabeth and victor destroyed the bride when he was making her so that the monster could not have her.
Given that she wrote it in 1818, she'd probably be more than happy to see folks spending millions of future dollars on bringing her story to life 174 years later!
I think Mary would be estatic of the legacy & continued relevance of her characters. Very few hold that way.. Dracula.. Hannibal Lector.. Struggling to think of more honestly.
The creature killed Elizabeth _because_ Frankenstein killed the bride. As soon as the bride was reanimated, Victor repented of having worked the experiment again and destroyed her. When the creature finds her 're-deaded', he waits on Frankenstein to return and kills Clerval, who he mistakenly ambushes thinking it's Victor. Then he goes on to kill Elizabeth in revenge for Victor's destruction of his un-dead mate. Then follows the chase by Victor of the creature to the arctic wastes.
The full body skin prostethic and make-up effects was just fenomenal awesome for this movie in 1994. They look very realistic and disturbing includet. Four or Five hours both stood DeNiro and Bonham-Carter inside in their tight latex skin-suits almost every day and night for a few sequences. It was so hot, claustrophobic and i guess very unconfortable for both of them.
The only way to beat it is to think like it. To know that this flame will spread this way across the door and up across the ceiling, not because of the physics of flammable liquids, but because it wants to.
It’s better in many ways than the Universal films but still an interpretation not an adaptation. That’s why I still say that the 2004 miniseries is the best version of a live action Frankenstein film.
Many an actress looks just like this after cosmetic surgery. You just go to a private Palm Springs resort and wait for the swelling to go down. Rookie mistake.
Yup this film is pretty faithful to the novel but let's face it , 😂 not Robert De Niro , not Christopher Lee not Lon Chaney Jr (The original iconic Wolf man) & not Bela Lagosi (The original iconic Dracula) could even hold a flame to Boris Karloffs Frankenstein & they definitely all tried & failed miserably 😂IDC about the book Non of those actors or even any directors could ever hold a single flame to the original "Frankenstein" & especially not the sequel "Bride Of Frankenstein" That is just something all of u are going to just have to except at one point in ur life & this is coming from someone thats literally only 30😂 It's just not literally possible...ever!!!! Like literally ever thats one role that can't ever be remade even close to being any good , thats how legendary & iconic Boris Karloff & his make up literally was😂 When u close ur eyes at night & think about the Frankenstein monster since the very day u discovered him as a lil child wether u are 5 years old or 80 years old, u literally only see Boris Karloffs Frankenstein monsters face in ur head when u close ur eyes , u don't see De Niro or Christopher Lee or anyone else regardless if u actually seen any of the actual original films ,or not it doesn't even matter , u automatically picture Karloffs face & make up !!! Thats literally how iconic that role was in cinema history!!!! 😂 U got all these 🐐 actors that tried to attempt to create that character when God literally said Boris Karloff is the one & only Frankenstein that will ever be iconic & there's literally non of u humans can literally do anything about it 😂 That's literally how iconic that role & make up is 💯 IDC who u ask for the next million years , nobody is going to disagree about that 😭 It's literally lightning ⚡ in a bottle & it only strikes once !!!!
The bit when Victor and the Monster are calling to Elizabeth to see which one she will go to is just embarrassing. It’s not edgy, it’s not creepy, it’s just sort of ‘ugh’.
Same I was in the theatre with my aunt back in 1996 and I was like 13. I literally closed my eyes I couldn’t watch it! My aunt was like come on she’s not that bad
This version of Frankenstein; Or The Modern Prometheus written by Mary Wollstonecraft Shelly is very faithful to the booke, with uncredited rewrites done by Sir Kenneth Branagh which really flesh out details.
She looks so utterly hurt and horrified, that look from her says everything without a word
I know I wasn't the only one that thought she was going to get pulled apart when they were yanking her back and forth. Lol
Poor Elizabeth and poor Justine. They didn’t want their bodies and body parts to be attached to each other. At least, they put two wrongs to right.
"Abomination!"
You completely read my mind here.
2:26 I love how Victor and the monster hold eachother for a second it’s really funny
It's like they were both lowkey scared for a second 🤣
"hold me! im scared!! :o "
Both have caused all this misery and horror through their actions; Victor with his pursuit of knowledge and The Monster with his pursuit of revenge. Yet, despite how much they hate each other, they are all they have left, at least until the end when Victor dies.
A wise man once said: "Sometimes, dead is better."
The tears in her eyes when she realizes what Victor did to her and says his name. That says it all.
Movie name?
@@sonamthakur2837 Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein. It says in the description
That was a heartwrenching moment. Helena is incredible.
Not the point but wow, Branagh’s hair is majestic in this scene
Brings me back to that line by Jud Crandall, from Pet Semetary:
“Sometimes, dead IS better.”
2:45 - THAT...... has to be the greatest fire effect I have ever seen.
"Wonderful!"
Yes, it's incredible indeed.
Cause its real fire
Agree with you here.
This so damn wall done!
Geez.. it's like he painted the walls of his house with gasoline..
you didn't?
We watched this in class and sum kid literally said “his house must be made out of gasoline”
Paint does have oil in it.
@@yaboi1871 aren't lamps fuelled by kerosene? That's going to fuse when crushed like that.

There is a kind of satisfaction this scene gives that's not in the book - the way it ties these different threads together
This is the most on fire anyone has ever been, good lord!
Helena Bonham Carter, this girl is always on fire 🔥😂.
Remember the ending of the movie Sweeney Todd
And the chimney scene in Order Of The Phoenix.
"Bellatrix lestrange?" "Fairy 🧚♀️ godmother?"
"Emily of corpse bride?" 👰
AND you know what else?? She was born in the year of the fire horse (just playing around, I LOVE her) - but I'm also serious about that, you should look up her bio info on imdb, she was born in 1966
Tug of war.she screams how hideous she was then she kills herself.....both are like damn
This scene is truly disturbing and makes my stomach hurt.
CGI could never make that fire stunt look cooler.
Criminally underrated movie.
It is so good! I still watch it today if it’s on. I had it on DVD somewhere
@@medzykh9455got the Arrow Video Blu-ray
I loved it, I have read the novel which is amazing, and the movie was actually true to the book, mostly.
After all these years, i had no idea that Robert DeNiro played Frankensteins monster in the film.
I knew he did, but missed how he was also the guy who got hanged for stabbing professor waldman (who I never knew till later years was John Cleese).
This is a MASTERPIECE!
This whole movie is so GREAT.
really fast paced watched it twice in the same evening on my portable dvd player saw it several times at the theaters back in 1994.
I love this movie! It's so underrated.
Agreed.
This would be a funny time for her to realize all that effort somehow made her immune to fire.
Hey look. It's Emily from Corpse Bride.
This comment won everything. 😆
Jesus, was the whole house covered in gasoline? How the hell can everything be that flammable lol
“Come to me my Angel of music….” 🎶🎶
Oh shoot sorry wrong film!! 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤣🤣
Wrong plot and wrong characters and wrong motives.
This movie was nuts
Mary Shelly is rolling in her grave. The monster killed Elizabeth and victor destroyed the bride when he was making her so that the monster could not have her.
An adaptation doesn't need to be a carbon copy of the source material, you know.
Given that she wrote it in 1818, she'd probably be more than happy to see folks spending millions of future dollars on bringing her story to life 174 years later!
This version worked perfectly. I trow Mrs. Shelley would have been proud of Sir Kenneth.
I think Mary would be estatic of the legacy & continued relevance of her characters.
Very few hold that way..
Dracula..
Hannibal Lector..
Struggling to think of more honestly.
The creature killed Elizabeth _because_ Frankenstein killed the bride.
As soon as the bride was reanimated, Victor repented of having worked the experiment again and destroyed her. When the creature finds her 're-deaded', he waits on Frankenstein to return and kills Clerval, who he mistakenly ambushes thinking it's Victor.

Great fire stunt
Facts.

the stuntwoman was Princess Leia's stuntwoman on Return of the Jedi, you can see her in Google images
they legit fixed this book
I used to have this on vhs this was a good one
2:40 Burn baby, burn!
(‘Disco Inferno’ plays)
I always think of Everybody Loves Raymond when I hear that song 😂
@@Nick64266_Saturday Night Fever_ and _Kingpin_ 🕺🏻🎳
Hey she did a three point landing while on fire...neat.
2:37
"We belong dead."
How tf did that fire spread so quickly??
You know, the mansion probably wouldn't have burned down if Victor had not been storing his pyrotechnic mixes in the walls.
This is great love it
01:56 wtf did you do to me
2:47 It's a living thing, Victor. It breathes, it eats...
...and it hates.
The only way to beat it is to think like it. To know that this flame will spread this way across the door and up across the ceiling, not because of the physics of flammable liquids, but because it wants to.

Why would he purposely make her with a scar running through her eye lmao
He was in a rush. Pretty sure the scar was from when her head hit the table while dying
That hallway scene is something else…
Porque no sube está película en español
You choose.
0:43 I um... uh... I.... Heisenberg?
You're goddamn right
Awesome
An excelent movie! unfurtinately underrated
Many may not acept it, but this is the closet version of the book to date.
Is the building coated in nitroglycerin or something? I've never seen a fire spread so fast.
A true story 💡
We’ve always been able to transfer consciousness
Just came from watching Corridor stunt react....
And?
Great special make up.
The love triangle was too much for her to handle which drove her into taking her own life.
She does twice
Whomp there it is
Well that was very dramatic
Look what you have done to me!!!!!!
I love to see that movie into a Frankengirl
You made me.
The female human torch.
Many an actress looks just like this after cosmetic surgery. You just go to a private Palm Springs resort and wait for the swelling to go down.
Rookie mistake.
i don't remember this movie
02:42
Stuntwoman made mula here.
One of the saddest horroristic melodrama what i have seen !
😢😢😢😢😒🤕🤕
I aint gonna lie, if I was Elizabeth i'd choose the monster. This one is kinda hot lol
its to bad she agreed to marry him so fast .should have had him checked mentally but than thats the dark ages for you.
Lmao the story takes place in the 19th century. Not exactly the dark ages.
Yup this film is pretty faithful to the novel but let's face it , 😂 not Robert De Niro , not Christopher Lee not Lon Chaney Jr (The original iconic Wolf man) & not Bela Lagosi (The original iconic Dracula) could even hold a flame to Boris Karloffs Frankenstein & they definitely all tried & failed miserably 😂IDC about the book
Non of those actors or even any directors could ever hold a single flame to the original "Frankenstein" & especially not the sequel "Bride Of Frankenstein"
That is just something all of u are going to just have to except at one point in ur life & this is coming from someone thats literally only 30😂
It's just not literally possible...ever!!!! Like literally ever thats one role that can't ever be remade even close to being any good , thats how legendary & iconic Boris Karloff & his make up literally was😂

Still one Hot Chick in the end 🔥
movie name please🥲🥲🥲
_Mary Shelley's Frankenstein_

The bit when Victor and the Monster are calling to Elizabeth to see which one she will go to is just embarrassing. It’s not edgy, it’s not creepy, it’s just sort of ‘ugh’.
I think that's sort of the point.
Good Scene in a Bad Movie
That didn’t happen in the book lol
I saw this in the theater.... Cringe fest.
Same I was in the theatre with my aunt back in 1996 and I was like 13. I literally closed my eyes I couldn’t watch it! My aunt was like come on she’s not that bad
I thought it was a TNT original?
Such a terrible movie lol
The best version of Frankenstein!
Much more faithful to the book.
God this movie sucked
It was good for its time. Still ain’t too bad
Ain't is not a word.
