Reaction paper: Bride of Frankenstein
Bride of
Frankenstein is a 1935 American horror film which is the first sequel to
Frankenstein in 1931. It is about Victor Frankenstein and Dr. Pretorius
creating a mate for a Monster.
In this
film, it can be greatly shown that because of human’s (scientists) desire to
discover and make new things and even creatures can be the reason for them to
do immoral and unethical things. The Monster was created from a dead body. In
reality, life cannot be and should not be returned after death because it is a
natural phenomenon and part of God’s plan for everyone. And for the Mate, the
doctor ordered one of his servants to kill a young lady to have a functional
heart. Who says anyone can destroy a person just because he wants to and he
needs to?
The
difference between the movie adaptation of the monster and in the book is that
the monster was not able to carry a decent conversation and was made dumb.
If the Monster were given the ability to talk, the he could explain to people
his situation and eventually people would understand him and accept him in
their society. But the Monster’s inability to talk worked and was a success to
show that the Monster is not normal or he is different which made everyone
freak out and get scared.
