	Flesh for Frankenstein: Criterion Collection on DVD - MovieWeb
		Filmed in the famous Cinecitta by a crew of Italian master filmmakers, FLESH FOR FRANKENSTEIN is suffused with the crumbling glamour of old Italian films, paying homage to (while simultaneously parodying) the earnest and stark visual and psychological beauty of the old horror films on which it is based.
		Frankenstein (played straightfaced and earnestly deadpanned by Kier) pieces together male and female monsters, eventually lacking only the perfect "Serbian nasum." Frankenstein lives in false marital bliss with his detached and malcontent wife-sister and two sinister children, who perpetually peek in on the forbidden experiments of Frankenstein and the equally forbidden sexual liaisons of Mme.
		With Andy Warhol lending his name as "producer," longtime filmmaking associate Paul Morrissey (FLESH, TRASH, HEAT) turned in the first of two uncompromisingly idiosyncratic convention-shattering interpretations of classic horror tales starring the suitably demented Udo Kier, who was previously unknown to American audiences.

	War of the Gargantuas: Frankenstein's Lineage
		While hiding in the mountains, from the military, Frankenstein must have torn a piece of his flesh on a rock or tree.
		Somehow, pieces of flesh or cells, from Frankenstein were torn off from the octopus under the water.
		It is ironic that the "son" of Frankenstein, killed his father's murderer.

	FRANKENSTEIN'S MONSTER by Michael Surbrook
		Thus, Frankenstein's creation can be adapted to virtually any genre, be it fantasy (as the ever-popular "flesh" golem), horror, the pulp era (as the servant of the required mad scientist), superheroes (as previously mentioned), or even science fiction (as an android).
		When he talks with Frankenstein, he is very articulate in his arguments, and both Frankenstein and the ship captain the creature meets at the end of the novel comment on his persuasiveness.
		Background/History: Frankenstein's monster was the creation of Victor Frankenstein, who sought to gain full and complete understanding of life and death by discovering a way to animate dead tissue.

	The Philosophy of the Wold Newton Universe and the Crossover Chronology
		Since all superheroes and their associated universe fit into the WNU "surprisingly well" (no support is given for this statement), those who prefer to place limits and rules are prejudiced and biased against superheroes and comic books in general.
		For the convenience of the reader who chooses not to include superhero universe references in his or her version of the Wold Newton Universe, the references are in green text.
		Magic works, the undead "live," New York and Tokyo are just not fun places to live, there are lots of immortals, time travel is possible, men have malleable flesh, and some canines have the power of human speech.

	"BIGKIDZ"
		Electric Frankenstein's image totally fits what I am trying to do here, when we sat down to discuss how I should approach this from an art stand point we all kind of pointed to the Alice Cooper song "Teenage Frankenstein" for inspiration.
		I had this vision in my head of this creepy punk rawk kid with wired hair and green flesh representing all that is rock n' roll just ripping a city to shreds, like he had revenge on his mind, and in a way he did...or I did.
		The band is from New York and they have been making loud aggressive pure rock music since before it was cool to note AC/DC as an influence.

	EN World - Morrus' D&D / d20 News & Reviews Site - MARCH MOVIE MADNESS! : Frankensteins monster
		His alignment is a tricky issue, for me. Remember he also killed Frankenstein's wife so that he could have a mate made for him, which doesn't strike me as a particularly good act.
		The monster prefers to observe people for days before interaction, however when in a straight up fight the Monster simply uses his brute strength to destroy what ever stands in his way, inless a better plan can be used.
		Personally I disagree with the creature type, instead basing the monster of an incarnate flesh golem, but it is quite well done.

	The Curse Of Hammer's Frankenstein
		Frankenstein, on the other hand, is a man of flesh and blood, using science, not magic to gain his ways, and with a complex, believable personality.
		The film ends with Frankenstein being taken to the scaffold for his crimes against humanity, but we are left with the feeling that, surely this can't be the end of such a man. Surely enough it is not.
		Their Frankenstein is an utter cynic who will commit murder, either personally or by proxy, if it fits with his schemes.

		Its a comprehensive collection of trailers, and interviews which is bound to be of interest to many out there, if only for the Hammer pilot.

		Significantly, it was to Buffon that Victor Frankenstein also turned after his early disillusionment with the alchemists, and Buffon whom he "still read.

	The HORROR-WOOD Reporter -- The Archives
		Besides the miniature crustaceans, von Braunhut also invented X-Ray Specs, "incredible" glasses that allowed wearers to see through clothing and flesh.
		The original production was an animated film released in 1967, featuring the voices of Boris Karloff as Baron Von Frankenstein and Phyllis Diller as the monster's mate.
		For years, Sea Monkeys were a staple of comic book advertisements, one of those goofy things that every kid had to have.

	Schwartz - A Happening Thing
		Victor Frankenstein's creation is monstrous in part because, thinks Victor, the transformative act has gone awry, and dead flesh has been given life without soul.
		Most contemporary literary and cinematic fictions about automata, however, draw upon Mary Shelley's Frankenstein of 1818, a story which is all about transformation and expulsion.
		I know of no recent automata, and certainly none on public view, that proceed through each of the digestive motions and offer up, at the end, a wet turd.

	Cinergía Movie File: Spirit of the Beehive
		In context to proceeding events in the film, the barn is where “the spirit” of Frankenstein becomes flesh and blood when the fugitive jumps of the train and chooses this place to hide out.
		The first image is generated from the actual film “Frankenstein”, while the second one is the hallucination that the young girl Ana sees in the lake.
		Finally, there comes a point in the film in which Ana no longer turns to her sister and her trickery, and therefore turns inward towards her own imagination.

	The Austin Chronicle: Screens: Body of Work
		And then, of course, there's Dallesandro, he of the Andy Warhol/Paul Morrissey films Flesh, Trash, Heat, Flesh for Frankenstein, and Blood for Dracula (among others); "Little Joe" of Lou Reed's "Walk on the Wild Side"; beefcake icon; and all-around merchant of menace.
		Possessed of a serenely decrepit mise-en-scène of weathered and flyblown locations that positively cry out for the insertion of doomed, damned love, this lyrical epithet of a film plays like a sex-mad Shakespeare on Sergio Leone's dime.
		Stalking through the film like a rippling gay golem with a hard-on for trouble, he deftly holds his own against the rapturously gamine Birkin and even a young Gérard Depardieu, who appears briefly, but oh-so-memorably, as the "Man on Horse." You do the myth.

	Alamo - Show Details
		The great Udo Kier (Frankenstein in Morrissey’s FLESH FOR FRANKENSTEIN) plays the count as a sickly and hypersensitive shut-in who stumbles across the supposedly virginal DiFiore family with the help of his domineering assistant, Anton.
		Udo Kier was asked by Paul Morrissey to lose 15 kilos for the part of Dracula.
		The sex and violence are tinged with ironic humor as Kier goes from one daughter to the next, desperate for the virgin blood he needs to save his life.

		Antonio Margheriti and Paul Morrissey's Il mostro é in Tavola, Barone Frankenstein (Flesh for Frankenstein, 1974) and Dracula cerca sangue di vergine...
		The late Antonio Margheriti's mood piece La Vergine di Norimberga (The Virgin of Nuremberg, 1964) was a galvanising moment of mid-1960s Italian Gothic.
		Quite appropriately, Helen of Troy possessed "the face that launched a thousand ships."[4] She is menaced throughout the duration of Margheriti's opus by the crazed killer in the Bavarian Schloss.

	.Virtual Urth - Young Frankenstein DVD Movie Reviewed By Grant Sanborn
		Young Frankenstein is one of those movies that you run across on television, watch for while, turn the channel, go right back to and end up begging everyone with you to "Look, watch this scene, it's hilarious!" until you watched the whole thing.
		While the Transylvanian town watches his travails with many a wary and scornful eye, Dr. Frankenstein (that's Fronk - en - shteen to you) succeeds in turning the flesh of the dead into a living, breathing creature of familiar proportions and distortions.

	Flesh For Frankenstein - Paul Morrissey - Udo Kier - Joe Dallasandro
		For a number of factors, Flesh for Frankenstein went dramatically over-budget, with the result that major changes were made to the way that its follow-up, Blood for Dracula, was to be produced, including the abandonment of 3-D and a much tighter scriptwriting process along with greater reliance on pre-production planning.
		Flesh for Frankenstein is also the title of a hard-core porn film made in 1987 by Ron Jeremy.

	CNN.com - Meet the real 'Simone' - August 22, 2002
		But Rachel Roberts, who plays the title character in "Simone," can finally tell the world she's a flesh-and-blood star, not a pixellated performer stitched together by some cyber-Frankenstein.
		Roberts sneaked onto the set in wigs and other disguises and was known as "the stand-in" for Simone to much of the film crew, who thought she would be replaced in post-production by a digital actress.
		After "Simone" leaves theaters, Roberts' name will be added to the credits when the film comes out on video, "so I'll be able to prove it was really me for posterity's sake," she said.

		Christopher Lee gives one of his most unforgettable performances as Judge George Jeffreys, the infamous 17th Century witchfinder whose unholy obsession with a luscious wench (Maria Rohm of THE BLOOD OF FU MANCHU) fuels a jaw-dropping spree of torture, brutality and flesh-ripping perversion.
		For his epic shocker of caged women gone wild, legendary director Jess Franco (EUGENIE, SADOMANIA) brought together a once-in-a-lifetime cast of International beauties including Maria Schell (THE ODESSA FILE), Luciana Paluzzi (THUNDERBALL), Rosalba Neri (LADY FRANKENSTEIN) and Maria Rohm (VENUS IN FURS).
		A chance encounter on a canal bridge results in a series of twilight rendezvous between a lonely city transplant (Marcello Mastroianni) and a sheltered woman (Maria Schell) haunted by a loverand#146;s promise.
