Normally I would pedantically disapprove of such wholesale inaccuracies, but does that mean that this film is single-handedly responsible for the entire idea of Frankenstein that we hold in our minds for most of the past century? The lightening, the bold in the neck, the centrepiece of the coming alive moment, the zombie character?Dessiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08172245410667624187noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2335502008944631925.post-73842406246652218222015-12-23T09:37:23.196-08:002015-12-23T09:37:23.196-08:00I think it is also because I enjoyed the novel Dra...I think it is also because I enjoyed the novel Dracula a lot more than Frankenstein so just story wise, I will always prefer Dracula.Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13701724130997076650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2335502008944631925.post-60295468263492200042015-12-20T04:37:07.826-08:002015-12-20T04:37:07.826-08:00Caught a bit between the two of you here ..
