Hammer legend Jimmy Sangster (The Curse of Frankenstein, Dracula) made his directorial debut with The Horror of Frankenstein, a bold experiment in horror comedy.

When the cold, arrogant genius Victor Frankenstein (Ralph Bates) murders his father, he inherits the title of Baron von Frankenstein and the family fortune. He uses his newfound riches to enter medical school, but is forced to return home when he impregnates the Deans daughter. Returning to his estate, he sets up his own laboratory and begins a series of experiments involving the revival of the dead. After building a composite body from human parts, his creation (David Prowse) is unleashed upon the world…
