It's an amazing read - like The Princess Bride meets The Hunger Games.

I do remember that it was a videotaped stage play. <br /><br />Anyway - here's a little-known version of the story that you missed: in 1973, Dan Curtis (<i>Dark Shadows</i>) produced a late-night two-part adaptation of <i>Frankenstein</i> for television. It was shot on videotape and starred Robert Foxworth as Frankenstein and Bo Svenson as the monster.<br /><br />Considering the low budget and the limitations of the videotape format, it was fairly decent.<br /><br />Dark Sky Films released it on DVD in '07. I reviewed it for my <b>DVD Late Show</b> column/site:<br /><br /><a href="http://dvdlateshow.blogspot.com/2007/11/frankenstein.html" rel="nofollow">Frankenstein (1973)</a><br /><br />If you can find it, it's an interesting curio.Christopher Millshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15978811373546110421noreply@blogger.com
