The original film saw the monster slowly convince Frankenstein to make him a bride, however upon being animated, she rejects the Doctor&#8217;s creation, eventually leading to both hers and the Monster&#8217;s destruction.<\/p>\n<p>The film was a critical and financial success for Universal on its release in 1935, with actors praising Karloff&#8217;s subtle presentation of the Monster&#8217;s emotions, despite his horrific appearance. The film has previously been remade, in 1985, with a cast that featured both Sting and Jennifer Beals. Nothing has been mentioned about a prospective release date for this version as of yet.<\/p>\n<p>This news comes to us through The Hollywood Reporter&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.riskybusinessblog.com\/2009\/06\/bride-of-frankenstein-remake.html\" target=\"_blank\">Risky Biz<\/a> blog.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The long-mooted remake of Boris Karloff&#8217;s classic sequel, The Bride Of Frankenstein, is starting to move forward with a director\/writer attached.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"MSN_Categories":"Uncategorized","MSN_Publish_Option":false,"MSN_Is_Local_News":false,"MSN_Is_AIAC_Included":"Empty","MSN_Location":"[]","MSN_Add_Feature_Img_On_Top_Of_Post":false,"MSN_Has_Custom_Author":false,"MSN_Custom_Author":"","MSN_Has_Custom_Canonical_Url":false,"MSN_Custom_Canonical_Url":""},"categories":[140,3],"tags":[860,513],"acf":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.scifinow.co.uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3148"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.scifinow.co.uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.scifinow.co.uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.scifinow.co.uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.scifinow.co.uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3148"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.scifinow.co.uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3148\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.scifinow.co.uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3148"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.scifinow.co.uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3148"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.scifinow.co.uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3148"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
