Viewing Notes

Got the Frankenstein Legacy Collection from my library but only had time to watch Son of Frankenstein (1939), one I hadn’t (surprisingly) hadn’t seen yet. This is another solid entry in the original series of films w/Basil Rathbone stepping in as Dr. Frankenstein. Besides Karloff reprising his famous role, it’s great to see Lugosi as the sidekick Ygor.
