Frankenstein
Last night was pretty quiet. I was watching some comedy shows on TV and the latest episode of The Wire.
Today was another very quiet and very dull day at work. This evening I was watching the 1910 movie version of Frankenstein. It was the first movie version of the Frankenstein story and one of the earliest horror movies ever made. Despite only lasting around 12 minutes, it still manages to have all the essential elements of the story and still leave room for some hilarious over-acting. Of course, it was a silent movie, so they had to use these exaggerated gestures to get the meaning across. However, there are some really effective sequences, such as the monster creation sequence, and the final scene. It was still scarier than the Kenneth Branagh version, anyway.
