The Bride of Frankenstein

Widely regarded as one of the greatest horror sequels ever made and a defining entry in the Universal Monsters legacy, THE BRIDE OF FRANKENSTEIN expands the original’s terror with equal parts gothic chills and dark wit. Dr. Frankenstein is goaded by an even madder scientist to build a mate for his creation. Boris Karloff once again brings terror and pathos to the Monster and is paired with a dazzling Elsa Lanchester and her over-the-top iconic hairdo. Combining camp and serious tones, this is the perfect film to get you in the spooky spirit.

Before the film, join us for a presentation on 'It’s Electric!: The connection between Mary Shelley's 'Frankenstein,' bioelectric medicine, and bioengineering,” with Daniel Cohen – an assistant professor of mechanical and aerospace engineering at Princeton University.
