It's Alive!

[sickersjamrock]

The monster you created!!

[TheJackFozza]

The hunchback looks a bit like lee evans....

[jerome6645]

frankensteins real name on the movie is dr henry frankenstein.... some people may have different views

[Thehighschool8888]

movie seems far off form the book..

[Flumong]

@colormagicsky

Hmm... Nnnoope.

Victor Frankenstein created a nameless monster. Calling the monster Franktenstein would be wrong because that name belongs to the creator. The monster has no name. I do apologise, but I believe I have the correct answer on this matter.

Good day, indeed.

Good day, indeed.

[effov]

thumbs up if typing frankenstein into the searchfield brought you here.

[GiromCalica]

I challenge anybody to ponify this one.

[crazitaco]

@GiromCalica joke's on you, someone has already crossed frankenstein with my little pony. google "the frank that visited ponyville"

[human200freedom]

ITS ALIVE AAHAHAHAHHAAH

[missingyou90s]

who in the hell dislikes this movie?

[WillyM79]

Doc Brown thumbed up this video

[GiromCalica]

did he attempt to resurrect Discord?

[buffybutt124]

This is way different than the book. In the book Victor is alone when he creates the monster , and when it comes alive he runs away and does not like his creation.

[spfccsmft]

@buffybutt124 Apparently it's based more on a play adaptation than the book itself.

[youjustfailedfilms]

IT'S ALIVE, IT'S ALIVE!!!!!!

Nope, just Chuck Testa with another realistic mount.

[Red031796]

Thumbs up if Monster Madness brought you here.

[er10b]

If I had all this electrical apparatus I think I'd find a way to spend my holidays...

[gonsten]

the movie is good but it is totally different from the  original story. I dont think that the author mary shelley that wrote the original book frankenstein would watch this movie and like it...

[snakes3425]

@gonsten

This wasn't adapted from the book, like Dracula, it was adapted from a play that was a loose adaptation of the book, but this movie, like Dracula, gave Mary Shelly's classic it's immortallity

[er10b]

Rumour has it that Kenneth Strickfaden substituted for Karloff during this scene as what you see are real 10 000+ volt arcs and Karloff had a fear of being electrocuted.

Also imagine turning all that on just to cook a piece of toast?

[Ablack51]

Why did they ruin this book? This movie is a disgrace to the beauty and philosophy of Mary Shelley's work.

[snakes3425]

@Ablack51

Once again this film isn't baised on the book, it's baised on a play that was a loose adaptation of the book

[viktor2008]

nope chuck testa

[MyrAge219]

hey frankenstein will you do me a quick favor? i need you to use your experiment on my grandmother so she can be with us again. can you please do tht for me? ty :)

[Oddonan]

21 people are not alive

[MariahYanez]

Genius at work.

[cooldude8437]

Universal in the 1930s. Looks awsome

[mielazul]

"Rosetta West - Shakin' All Over"

[wolfman8448]

frankenstein is not the monster frankenstein is the doctor his name is Dr. victor frankenstein

[Ablack51]

@wolfman8448 Though he wasn't actually a doctor.

[snakes3425]

@wolfman8448

I always find it funny how many people mistakenly believed the Monster was Frankenstien, even though in the movie it's clear the doctor is Frankenstein

[wolfman8448]

@snakes3425 I know, but it's an honest mistake, I love correcting people.

[Xhouffaed]

@wolfman8448 Well, people thought that the monster's name was frankenstein because the monster's face was always next to title in posters etc. And then Universal made "Bride of Frankenstein" and "Frankenstein meets the Wolfman", so it's understandable mistake too.

[wolfman8448]

@Xhouffaed yeah it is

[wolfman8448]

@colormagicsky if you want to put it that way then yeah you're right

[andrewtucker94]

@wolfman8448

Nearly. In the film he is Dr. Henry Frankenstein. In the original novel he not a doctor but a college drop out called Victor Frankenstein.

[wolfman8448]

@andrewtucker94 yes i am aware of that

[MrBeno696]

@wolfman8448 The movie is way different from the book.

[wileyk209zback]

@wolfman8448 Right. I usually refer to Frankenstein's creation as "The Monster."

[cstoczyn]

Scary, Huh?

[cstoczyn]

Happy Halloween!!!!

[cstoczyn]

OMG!

[cstoczyn]

LOL

[starrock779]

and then they created hitler and half of our population died. they end

[Weasler455]

The world lost a remarkable and unique talent with the untimely passing of Colin Clive. The feeling he displays in scenes like this is really something to watch.

[PSspecialist]

I beat it... I beat it! I BEAT IT I BEAT IT I BEAT IT!!!! IN THE NAME OF GOD! NOW I KNOW WHAT IT FEELS LIKE TO BE GOD! My reaction to beating Ninja Gaiden 3 on NES.

[thelivingmanpart2]

theres something about old films that make the audience actually think... hmmm

lolz

[cstoczyn]

@thelivingmanpart2 FTW

[cyberlarry7]

Colin Clive was brilliant! The most wonderful actor. People forget just how great an actor he was.

[desertninja3]

I've read the book before, and I gotta say the 1931 Frankenstein is the one I prefer the most out of any adaption, and even more so than the book itself. I found the book to be very dry, but of course this is just my opinion. I still believe the book is very deserving of its status as a classic piece of literature..

The movie on the other hand is genuinely creepy, and dark. Collin's performance as Frankenstein is outstanding and disturbing at the same time.

[cstoczyn]

@desertninja3 MMM HMM

[satekmary506094]

IT'S ALIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BORIS ROCKS!

[Weasler455]

@satekmary506094 That's not Boris Karloff. It's Colin Clive. Karloff plays the monster.



[cstoczyn]

@Weasler455 RIP Boris Karloff

[Jellippy]

@mohiniangel22 (i dont know if it tagged right, i'm new to it) I'M FROM 9KEATS TOO :P btw i know who you are because of your email :')

[orkkrusher]

I like how he ignores Igor; "Quite a good scene, isn't it? One man crazy, three very sane spectators."

[garganrose]

@orkkrusher frits not igor. igor didn't come around until son of frankenstein.

[TemptationalTrout]

I wonder who comes from latymer who watched this

[mohiniangel22]

@TemptationalTrout me =D

[TemptationalTrout]

@mohiniangel22 lol who are you anyway?

[mohiniangel22]

@TemptationalTrout someone from 9K. What about you?

[TemptationalTrout]

@mohiniangel22 Someone new to 9k u can probably guess who i am now

[mohiniangel22]

@TemptationalTrout so what's the meaning behind your username, Serge? :D

[TemptationalTrout]

@mohiniangel22 Err, i got quite bored and it was a name that was suggested to me before

i still haven't found out who you are?

[TemptationalTrout]

@TemptationalTrout so who are you?

[TemptationalTrout]

@mohiniangel22 ah please

[TemptationalTrout]

@TemptationalTrout tell me

[TemptationalTrout]

@mohiniangel22 please i actually really want to know?

we can play a guessing game to figure who you are I can ask a question and you have to answer it

[TemptationalTrout]

@mohiniangel22 are you male or female

[thomasmccarron]

Nope, Chuck Testa

[AmarAli1995]

Thought he was Mr bean

[TheTrollParty]

Frankenstein is the best troll ever. He troll'd God! XD

[ozman625]

It's alive! Nope! Chuck Testa...

[Stereolabdream]

What can you say? James Whale will be eternally remembered for this.

[samuelgwhyte]

Is that guy who plays Van Helsin in the 1933 Dracula?

[yayedu]

its a trap!

[cpufightclub]

The reaction Frankenstein ... is that what is to have children?

[jaclynandgracie]

Yes, this is quite the classic godfather of horror movies. And I'd have to admit that a version of this directly off the original novel would be better than this one. But, since I saw Mel Brooks first, this one was more serious and science-y. I didn't like the book so much, it left out a VERY important character in the Frankenstein team. Where's the hunchbacked lab assistant with the bulgy eyes?!

[237cupcake]

IT'S ALIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!

[FandangleProductions]

Frankenstein's insane exclaim "it's alive". Is this discrimination. Obviously the creature is a male not female. Yet it is a scientific creation of re-adapted human body parts from dead men. Though it's not a living being. Why call it IT, when it is actually a man. It should be "He's alive" not "It's alive". What say you?

[orkkrusher]

@FandangleProductions In the book, the characters don't consider him 'human', despite the fact that he can talk and reason like anyone else..

[depro9]

The Tesla Coil seen & heard to the left of the frame at 2:25 was build by Nikola Tesla himself!

[MrSciencetificsasuke]

@depro9 actually it was made by Kenneth Strickfaden

[depro9]

@MrSciencetificsasuke nope again, the Tesla coil in Frankenstein was built by Nikola Tesla himself. This coil still exists today & sits in the Griffith Observatory, LA, CA. ;)

[cstoczyn]

@MrSciencetificsasuke O I C

[MoonIMover]

@depro9 I choose to assume this is true because it sounds cool.

[TaylorSheneaP]

One of the best scenes from the film.

[Schizima]

charnel houses

[MzzhazelMoo]

tae vid 2



[infinitesimotel]

This is how they birth chavs.

[MoThErFuCkEr445]

It all looks so fake.

[ralphcraddock]

he only went into hospital for a hip replacement !

[FlareCreative]

In the book, Frankentein isn't really a monster in his heart but why did the world still portray Frankenstein as a cold blooded monster in movies and video games? How come the media are twisting the author's intention to our children and people who haven't read the book?

[tyme4mike]

"It's ALIVE! It's ALIVE!!" Sounds like William Shatner on Viagra!

[TomPatCat]

Zeitgeist.

[MrDirtySweed]

classic

[JM13121]

The best part in the movie..,The birth of reanimation...

[ralphcraddock]

think this is fiction do you? check out your local cash strapped hospital.

[Markofsatan]

I re-enact this scene when I bring the missus her morning coffee.

[cockupcb]

@Markofsatan LOL

[barefoot707]

this is how i'm feeling right now! She's alive,she's alive,alive,alive,alive

[MrBlRD]

Thumbs up if AVGN inspiried you to watch

older movies, like Bela Lugosi's Dracula and

Boris Karloff's Frankenstein

[Corrysion]

lol.

Exactly like the book.

[SuperFuninsun]

@Corrysion i hope that is sarcasm.

[Corrysion]

@SuperFuninsun

It is.

[kataisa3]

I'd love to know how audiences reacted to this movie when they first saw it.

[th4Guy77]

@kataisa3 when this movie came out, it was so revolutionary and horrifying for it's day that people actually ran out of the theater, and some even fainted. much like when the exorcist came out

[junkers1337]

I want to know what it feels like to be god.

[er10b]

@junkers1337 Well, try the same experiment Dr Frankenstein did and see for yourself.

[willievega]

Everyone in this movie's got to be over 50 years old by now, aye. : O

[MyAssGlobalWarmlol]

@willievega are you kidding me, they would be 140 years old. 

[willievega]

@MyAssGlobalWarmlol

It's ironic how few people 'get' irony.

[MyAssGlobalWarmlol]

@willievega hello there i'm willievega, look how clever and witty my comments are!

[willievega]

@MyAssGlobalWarmlol Amen, sistah

[megamantwelve]

@willievega Actually they're all pretty much dead. If they are alive, they're in their 90's-100's. Very unlikely.

[willievega]

@megamantwelve Oh, buddy, I was being sarcastic. Yeah, they'd be older than a head of lettuce for sure. : )

[Myitt]

My grandfather loved this movie. Fantastic cinema, one of the greatest scenes.

[silverwillow89]

that's what i said after my friend busted her ass on a slippery rock. it's alive!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[serioushamster]

Mary Shelly's Frankestine is a really good book,the monster isnt an idiot hes very intelligent and emotional people should read it.

[StevenBeDrummin]

skip to 2:12 to get to the good part.

[burnzgotshot]

Dr Frankenstein now works for the Monsanto corporation.

[knoxrox167]

if someone ever did a version of Mary SHelly's Frankenstein that is pure to the book, that would be awesome

[otkrew]

@knoxrox167 SO TRUE. Where the hell did this come from??

[Beatnikzombie]

@knoxrox167 It would be dreadfully boring like the book. 

[zakuryeuh]

@knoxrox167 the kenneth branaugh production is pretty close to the shelley text

[oguzsaltik]

@knoxrox167 hear hear

[WebbTutors]

@knoxrox167

That would result in the greatest overabundance of the words "wretch," "melancholy," and "grief" ever recorded on film.

[drzfynest65]

@knoxrox167 Check out Floyd's "Terror of Frankenstein" (1976)...the acting isn't perfect, but it's the closest to the book I've ever watched.

[cstoczyn]

@drzfynest65 I Don't

[spacemanisaac]

The right to be a god....

That right, is now his.

[ih8poniesaremagical]

reminds me of my girlfriends face when we have sex;)

[XAhoney]

@DedicatedGamerz that quote is in light of a lesson in the Bible: I John 4:18

[msudreaming]

"In the name of God, now I know what it feel to be God!"  has to be in the Top 10 Sacrileges Quotes in Movies of all time! lol

[ysbaddaden2003]

So how come he didn't become a crispy-fried Frankenberry?

[YaRisbabe0707]

I got stitches in my head over the summer and every day I would wake up my dad would yell "ITS ALIVE!" lol

[Dajackal07]

RUINED!!!

Hollywood ruined Frankenstein for gain

[Gusious7]

@Dajackal07 I agree...

[SirSchumii]

I shout out this every time i se a Ford driving HAHAHAHAHA

[ToryMagoo44]

The making of L. Ron Hubbard :)

[FilmmakerRyan]

@ToryMagoo44 Indeed. Frankenstein's creature had no soul, so he was thetan-free hahahahahahaha!

[Faztlan]

The University of Texas!

[CriticaLxThoughX]

This novel is one of the most touching one´s I´ve red so far...

[BrainEatingApe]

It may be alive, but it doesn't have a birth certificate.

[cadeyco]

@BrainEatingApe apparently, neither does Barrack...

[Quarker99]

i thought the body came alive only when victor was alone........??

[DoctorScuba]

Bwahahahaha!

[DethoticA]

Hi Guys,

Just finished recording a song inspired by this movie. Please check my channel, the song is called "It's Alive!" and it's dynamic metal instrumental. 

[kallemick]

there was once when i woke up i made some frankenstein's monster sounds (or atleast it sounded kinda like it) and my brother shouted "its alive alive!!!" XD

[DobermanCrew]

@kallemick Freak :D Lol

[ToxicOdiousOne]

Not neccessarily an anti science luddite novel. The main theme is what has man done? What damage are we doing to the planet? It is about seeing the destruction of cities with the atomic bomb and asking why?

[Villista619]

i wonder what is like to make something that stands the test of time?

[CincinnatusUSA]

If the Monster's brain was a woman's brain, the creature would have a shoe in for Jerry Springer. Henry Frankenstein could have don the sex change.

[PurpleCloud619]

I love how you see the sense of accomplishment from Dr. Frankenstein as the others look on at him as if he is a madman. Like he said, "One man crazy, the others... three very sane spectators". How he shows the contrast that majority means nothing when even the odds are stacked against you.

[SuperPrincessPeach22]

I have this movie, I also have the Wolf Man and Dracula movies, I have the Legacy Collections of each, there were also other movies on the discs, like the Bride of Frankenstein, the Son of Frankenstein, the Ghost of Frankenstein, and the House of Frankenstein.

[CincinnatusUSA]

Viewing the scene it still seems so disturbing, the idea of a mysterious 'great ray,' a body that has never lived, then...to see it start to quiver and move. Fascinating...

[Uberboy07]

It's Alive!!  ^_^ /popcorn

[atomichead777]

most memorable line ever in movie history

[Jordaddy35]

@atomichead777 yep right up there with "I am your Father"
