Editorial Review - Description

In the words of Bugs Bunny, "Monsters lead such interesting lives." That they do. And when they're not drinking blood, rising from the dead or trashing Tokyo, they seem to be doing what comes naturally: getting hitched and having a crop of kids. In "Frankenstein's Daughter," the Doctor's grandson continues with his infamous grandad's experiments and creates a hideous she-monster, a cross between a sumo wrestler, a porterhouse steak and the "brain" of a blonde bimbo, complete with a permanent wave down to her toes. An exploitation movie milestone in the monster offspring subgenre, "Frankenstein's Daughter" is the third of four drive-in classics crafted by producer Marc Frederic and director Richard Cunha in their late-'50s moviemaking heyday.

"You meddling kids!"

A Customer Review by Byron Kolln
Yet another branch on the Frankenstein family tree, FRANKENSTEIN'S DAUGHTER (produced by Astor Movie Corp. in 1958), is one of the nuttier entries in the unofficial franchise series.

Dr. Oliver Frank (Donald Murphy) keeps his real surname of Frankenstein under wraps, so he can make bizarre secret experiments on his boss' niece Trudy (Sandra Knight). Thanks to a "fruit punch" mixture, Trudy transforms into a hideous monster with a unibrow and a face like cold porridge. Dr. Frankenstein later murders Trudy's best friend Suzie (Sally Todd) and grafts her head onto the body of another mis-shapen monster creation, dressed in a trendy black leather jumpsuit.

FRANKENSTEIN'S DAUGHTER, a long-time favourite for monster fans, has all the key ingrediants for a classic cult movie: the eccentric doctor with blood ties to the real Frankenstein, an easily-spooked ingenue, a dimwit police force, and a brawny hero who saves the day.

The current DVD from Goodtimes features a decent, watchable print. The sound is muffled but easily followed. A great price, too. (Single-sided, single-layer disc).
