B-movie masterpiece set in XIX century mixing Frankenstein and Mummy plot with dark atmosphere and horror sensation (see the giant shade rising against the professor’s home) starring Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee as the Hildern brothers . A real pleasure for the fans in spite the poor budget and the monster make up. Watch out the flashback unveiling maybe a crazy epilogue.
