Universal Horror: Frankenstein (1931)
Two shows: Oct 30 and Nov 2!
One of the greatest, most influential monster movies ever made, James Whale's FRANKENSTEIN is essential viewing.

Humans in a fascist, militaristic future wage war with giant alien bugs.
"Often grotesque and sometimes pretty cheesy too, it's now embraced by many film fans as sly satire skewering America's weakness for right-wing militarism." - NME
"Insanely subversive...functions as a visually dazzling science-fiction action picture, a philosophical challenge, and a hilarious, incisive comedy." - Groucho Reviews
