Synopsis
Now Frankenstein has created a beautiful woman with the soul of the Devil!
A deformed tormented girl drowns herself after her lover is framed for murder and guillotined. Baron Frankenstein, experimenting with the transfer of souls, places the boy's soul into her body, bringing Christina back to life. Driven by revenge, she carries out a violent retribution on those responsible for both deaths.

Review by Slig001 ★★★★ 1
After the disappointment of Evil of Frankenstein, the Frankenstein series is back with Terence Fisher and back on track with Frankenstein Created Woman. The film gets about playing with the concept immediately; the scene that reintroduces Peter Cushing in his most famous role subverts the dynamic - here it is Frankenstein himself being given life, after dying for an hour during an experiment to prove the existence of the soul. The whole soul concept results in less flesh and more sorcery - the film taking on a real surreal fantasy vibe at times. The larger narrative goes down the Bride of Frankenstein "gender swap" route, but here it plays into the Hammer Frankenstein cannon as our monster is as usual…

Review by sakana1 ★★★½ 10
Some spoilers ahead.
Unlike 1972's Dr. Jekyll and Sister Hyde, a Hammer film which explicitly plays with gender in a way that is, if not quite transgressive, than very nearly so, Frankenstein Created Woman does so in an almost sidelong way, examining the issue by not explicitly doing so.
After all, Dr. Frankenstein (Peter Cushing, scrawnily dapper with his waistcoats and rolled-up sleeves and forearms all over the place) doesn't allow anything about his life to be controlled by social pressures or expectations so, for him, there's no hesitation at all to putting the soul of a man in a body that had lived as woman. What matters to him is only the relative health of the body in question…

Review by Aberrant Ghoul ★★★★★ 6
Four movies in and the Hammer Frankenstein train shows no signs of slowing. Terence Fisher delivers the goods.
I really love how this entry actually deviates significantly from the classic Frankenstein formula. The world's greatest mad scientist is back at it again, but this time he's mucking about, doing the plot of Flatliners decades before that film was even conceived. And that's just the opening act. From there, he goes on to tinker about with people's souls, and then creates a monster that looks a lot like a gorgeous blonde woman with ample endowments.
A delightful tale of revenge and pompous, rich asshats getting their comeuppance.
Don't ask me why I slept on these sequels so…

Review by Dr. Ethan Lyon ★★★★ 4
8th Terence Fisher (after Dracula, The Hound of the Baskervilles, Dracula Prince of Darkness, The Devil Rides Out, The Curse of Frankenstein, The Gorgon, The Brides of Dracula, before The Revenge of Frankenstein, The Mummy, The Two Faces of Dr. Jekyll, Curse of the Werewolf, Island of Terror, The Man Who Could Cheat Death, The Earth Dies Screaming, To The Public Danger, Phantom of the Opera, Frankenstein Must Be Destroyed, The Stranglers of Bombay and Mask of Dust)
A profoundly sad tale about people used and discarded by the rapacious, exploited for what their bodies can give as raw lumps of flesh. Identity and individual expression is irrelevant to Frankenstein and his ilk, despite his discussions of the soul. The…

Review by RanchoTuVu ★★★★
The Baron's experiments prove the soul still lives in the body after death, basically challenging the bedrock of Christian belief, and while he's at it, also unintentionally, because all the Baron really cares about is his work, achieving some well-done vengeance on some residents of the town he's in who have it coming. The focus of Peter Cushing's Frankenstein is his unwavering devotion to his work, but if you're watching the movie, you're feeling that justice is coming to this town of hypocrites, with the added attraction that it's in the form of Susan Denberg's resurrected body. In the usual Frankenstein plot, the obsessed scientist's work leads to tragedy and horror. They changed that around in this film. Though the…

Few things scream it's Halloween season, more than Hammer Horror. This was the first Hammer film, I remember watching. The ghoulish ending gave me nightmares for weeks!
Highly recommended -
Review by The Horror of Marna Larsen ★★★ 4
This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.
What's with the bummer train, Hammer? Today's lesson is: everyone just hates women, sucks to be you!
A girl with a 'hideous facial deformity' (similar in severity and noticability to Olivia Cooke's birthmark in Ready Player One) is tormented by some Victorian dude bro drunk asses. Her bf, in trying to defend her, is falsely accused of murder and executed.
The 'ugly' girl commits suicide, they bring her back and make her 'pretty' (or give her the 60s equivilent of cover fx super tattoo coverage makeup and as an added bonus, make her blonde? Wtf) then put her executed lover's soul in her body (kind of like that terrible plot in Hannibal no one ever, ever wanted to go near…

October Horror 2020, Day 18, challenge #10 - Title with a word that is at least 10 letters long
I love give-no-fucks Dr. Frankenstein!
Fool: "Do you take us for fools?"
Frankenstein: (immediately) Yes.What a cheerful town with the guillotine looking over it! They probably don't get a lot of tourists. "Dr. Hertz" is a terrible name for a doctor, who's the town dentist, Dr. Toothgrinder?? And their court system isn't much better. "Guess we gotta lob off this guy's head on the word of a comically head-bandaged dandy who said he seemed like a murderer, we have no choice!" Always good to see you, Bitter Beer Face guy.
I've given up trying to follow any sort of timeline…

Review by Jesse ★★★½
Hammer Frankenstein Series - Film #4
Continuity be damned at this point, just give me all the Frankenstein action please. This time out the good doctor has figured out a was to harvest the souls of the recently deceased. When his assistant is wrongly executed and his girlfriend kills herself, he sees an opportunity to transfer the soul into a fresh host body.
This is the most ludicrous film in the series thus far but it’s handled with the gothic grace of Hammer Films. Watching a female body with the soul of a man, act out the vengeance of her dead lover is just awesome and definitely borders on some femme fatale territory. Cushing is great again in the role of Victor Frankenstein and I love that each entry has him delving into different atrocities with medical science. A true horror villain.

Review by Helen_S ★★★★★ 3
Back on track after the appalling Evil Of Frankenstein. I've never given this a perfect score before but I can't fault it and enjoyed every moment. Well the one thing I've never been a fan of was how they had to turn her blonde. Just seemed every media outlet as a kid screamed blonde equals beautiful and this was just another of those moments. No biggie, just a little bugbear :P
Anyway Frankenstein here is like a softer extended version of how he was in Revenge. Now experimenting on himself (killing himself for an hour) and upping the ante with soul transference. After the burns from the previous film he can no longer operate but has Dr. Hertz to do…

Review by Joshua Dysart ★★★½ 2
I find metaphysics in Hammer’s Frankenstein movies generally kind of a bummer, and this is the farthest into metaphysics the series has gone so far, but without all of this flick’s spiritual essentialism and talk of the soul -even showing a human soul trapped in some kind of magnetic field at one point - we wouldn’t get this movie's most interesting aspects...
Because when this finally gets around to being about a male soul controlling a women’s body and mind to kill other men, the engagement factor goes up real quick.
The Hammer perversion of the gothic romantic flourishes under this concept perhaps more than it ever has. Two lovers transcended under the Baron’s mad science into a single entity,…

Review by Gentry ★★★½
“Bodies are easy to come by. Souls are not.”
The fourth in the Hammer Frankenstein series abandons the Monster completely to instead focus on matters of the soul, the afterlife, and the vengeful spirit of a wrongfully executed man inside the body of a Playboy centerfold. Yes, like Twins of Evil, this Hammer Studios picture also features a Playmate (the August 1966 issue, for those who are wondering).
In a bit of a tease, half the face of Susan Denberg is covered in a terrible burn scar for 3/4s of the film. Director Terence Fisher makes you wait for the full beauty reveal in the final act. And overall, the film turns out to be more of a body swapping…
