Actors: Boris Karloff, Edward van Sloan, Dwight Frye, Colin Clive, Lionel Belmore, Mae Clarke, Frederick Kerr, John Boles, Marilyn Harris

Boris Karloff stars as the screen's most memorable monster in what many consider to be the greatest horror film ever made. Dr. Frankenstein (Colin Clive) dares to tamper with life and death by creating a human monster (Karloff) out of lifeless body parts. Its director James Whale's adaptation of the Mary Shelley novel blended with Karloff's compassionate portrayal of a creature groping for identity that makes FRANKENSTEIN a masterpiece not only of the genre, but for all time.
