Movie Reviews

Antagony & Ecstasy - 9/10 by Tim BraytonFor those of us who love Hammer horror, this is an unmarred example of all the reasons why.
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC) - 9/10 by Ken HankePerhaps the most deadly dull in a series that had run out of steam.
Ozus' World Movie Reviews - 7/10 by Dennis SchwartzHammer's fifth of seven Frankenstein films might be the best one in the series.
Creative Loafing - 5/10 by Matt BrunsonThis 1969 effort might be the worst picture in the entire Hammer Frankenstein cycle, losing sight of the character of the obsessed scientist in an effort to score some cheap thrills.
User Review - 10/10 by Ben MHow many ways can it be said? Peter Cushing rules!
User Review - 10/10 by R.John XFirst Frankenstein Created Woman & now this movie which I'm currently watching for the umpteenth time. What an excellent way to start off a Halloween weekend!
User Review - 10/10 by deano wVery entertaining with plot that focuses of the excellent Cushing as the mad doctor. The monster is surprisingly normal which is interesting as he visits his wife. Plot driven from the first scene and /cushing proves his worth in the difficult role.
User Review - 10/10 by Steve MPeter Cushing is back again as Baron Frankenstein, and this time he's utterly, deliciously evil. He's been evil before, but not like this. At this point, other people are just toys and spare parts to him. Sure he still talks about furthering mankind through knowledge of science and medicine, but this time out it just sounds like self indulgent justification for his madness. It seems Frankenstein actually has a peer who has advanced one step beyond him in discovering how to freeze a brain without killing it, thereby maintaining the minds of geniuses until suitable new bodies can be found. Unfortunately, before he could pass on the secret to Frankenstein, he went completely crackers, with the secret locked inside his mad brain. Frankenstein must cure his madness, but first he must find a new host body, since his "friend" has a heart condition that wouldn't allow him to survive the brain surgery to cure his madness. This is probably the best film since the original, even better than Revenge Of Frankenstein. Enjoy

User Review - 10/10 by Neil OPerhaps the zenith of the Hammer Frankenstein series this film is a grim tale with multiple deaths, a heart rending performance by Freddy Jones and has some amazing set pieces. Best of all though is Cushing who, after four previous outings in the role, delivers his most cold-blooded portrayal of the mad Baron. Frankenstein Must Be Destroyed is one of Hammer's most delicately crafted productions. Production values are way above par. Bert Batt and Anthony Nelson-Keys deliver an excellent script. Arthur Grant's photography, James Bernard's score and Terence Fisher's direction are all exemplary. Not only the best of the Hammer Frankestein series, but also Terence Fisher's finest film. And truly one of the finest British films ever made. Period.
