Frankenstein's Daughter

“It reaches from the grave to re-live the horror, the terror! More destructive! More terrifying!”

Premium Crap. CrapScore 72, rated by 1 admin.

Higher CrapScores mean more entertainingly bad. How we score movies.

Why it’s crap
A Frankenstein descendant pursues his experiments among teenagers, turning modern Los Angeles into a particularly ill-advised family laboratory. The monster makeup and arrogant scientific declarations provide the camp, while Donald Murphy gives the villain more force than the surrounding cheapness might suggest.
