I&#8217;m essentially in agreement with Peary&#8217;s assessment. While the &#8220;production values are quite good&#8221;, and Cushing&#8217;s performance is excellent (it&#8217;s fun to see him playing &#8220;against type&#8221;, given his iconic connection to the heroic Van Helsing), this remake simply pales in comparison in every way but for the &#8220;distinct, superbright color&#8221;. It&#8217;s primarily of note for its historical relevance as the beginning of a new era of horror: according to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.moriareviews.com\/horror\/curse-of-frankenstein-1957.htm\">Richard Scheib of Moria Reviews<\/a>, &#8220;Aside from the flurry of atomic monster movies in the 1950s, there were almost no horror films made anywhere in the world between 1947 and the genre\u2019s revival in 1957&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Redeeming Qualities and Moments: <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Peter Cushing as Baron Frankenstein<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Curse-of-Frankenstein-Cushing.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Curse-of-Frankenstein-Cushing-1024x612.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"383\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-35256\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Curse-of-Frankenstein-Cushing-1024x612.png 1024w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Curse-of-Frankenstein-Cushing-128x76.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Curse-of-Frankenstein-Cushing-300x179.png 300w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Curse-of-Frankenstein-Cushing.png 1808w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>Atmospheric cinematography and period sets<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Curse-of-Frankenstein-Cinematography2.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Curse-of-Frankenstein-Cinematography2-1024x612.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"383\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-35255\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Curse-of-Frankenstein-Cinematography2-1024x612.png 1024w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Curse-of-Frankenstein-Cinematography2-128x76.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Curse-of-Frankenstein-Cinematography2-300x179.png 300w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Curse-of-Frankenstein-Cinematography2.png 1808w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Curse-of-Frankenstein-Cinematography1.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Curse-of-Frankenstein-Cinematography1-1024x612.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"383\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-35254\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Curse-of-Frankenstein-Cinematography1-1024x612.png 1024w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Curse-of-Frankenstein-Cinematography1-128x76.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Curse-of-Frankenstein-Cinematography1-300x179.png 300w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Curse-of-Frankenstein-Cinematography1.png 1808w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Must See? <\/strong><br \/>\nNo, though it&#8217;s worth viewing for its historical relevance. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Links: <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt0050280\/\">IMDb entry<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/1957\/08\/08\/archives\/screen-routine-horror-curse-of-frankenstein-bows-at-paramount.html\">NY Times Original Review<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tcm.com\/tcmdb\/title\/72012\/the-curse-of-frankenstein#articles-reviews?articleId=35364\">TCM Article<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.dvdtalk.com\/dvdsavant\/s618frank.html\">DVD Savant Review<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.aycyas.com\/curseoffrankenstein.htm\">And You Call Yourself a Scientist Review<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.thespinningimage.co.uk\/cultfilms\/displaycultfilm.asp?reviewid=2850&#038;aff=13\">Spinning Image Review<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/moria.co.nz\/horror\/curse-of-frankenstein-1957.htm\">Moria Review<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.timeout.com\/london\/film\/the-curse-of-frankenstein\">Time Out Capsule Review<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;Don&#8217;t you see?
