Story :
Bride of Frankenstein is a 1935 horror film and the second in the Frankenstein’s series. Doctor Henry Frankenstein (Colin Clive) has resolved to abandon his experiments and actions in creating life in favour of a peaceful marriage with the beautiful Elizabeth (Valerie Hobson), but his old mentor, the mad scientist Dr. Septimus Pretorius (Ernest Thesiger), who has himself created miniature human-like beings, tries to persuade Frankenstein to combine their efforts in “playing God.” Frankenstein is torn between his upcoming marriage to Elizabeth, and the appeal of creating life with Dr. Pretorius.
The monster (Boris Karloff) befriends an old blind violinist in the woods, who teaches the monster how to speak. Pretorius, forced to continue his experiments without Frankenstein’s involvement, has a chance encounter with the monster; by kidnapping Elizabeth, they blackmail Frankenstein into creating a bride for the monster

Movie Gossip :
Dwight Frye portrays Karl - despite having played hunchbacked dwarf Fritz, who was killed in the original film. The make-up was entirely different, however, since Karl wore short hair and bizarre eyebrows.
Actor Colin Clive, who plays Henry Frankenstein, broke his leg in a riding accident during filming, and hence remains seated in most of his scenes
