The Monster of Frankenstein (1981)


Rounding out Week 2 of the 2017 Countdown to Halloween is the 1981 Japanese animated movie The Monster of Frankenstein!

The movie was created by Toei Animation and aired on Japanese television on July 27, 1981. This English-dubbed version I feature today was released on home video in the States in 1984. This version stays pretty close to Mary Shelley's novel.

Although this is an animated movie, don't think this is a family film! There is graphic violence in this version, so viewer discretion is advised!

Enjoy! Have a great spooky weekend! Happy Friday the 13th!
