Continuing our quest to get through the rest of Hammer's Frankenstein films which starred Peter Cushing, we cover the last three titles that Hammer made. Cushing loved to play this character, and he's done it like no one ever had, or ever has. Along with the screenwriters, Cushing made this character his own, and really made him the real monster in this series.

Films mention in this episode:
Brides of Dracula (1960), The Bride of Frankenstein (1935), Curse of Frankenstein (1957), Curse of the Werewolf (1961), The Evil of Frankenstein (1964), The Exorcist (1973), Frankenstein Created Woman (1967), Frankenstein and the Monster from Hell (1974), Frankenstein Must Be Destroyed (1969), Horror of Dracula (1958), Horror of Frankenstein (1970), Kiss of the Vampire (1966), The Mummy (1959), Night of the Living Dead (1968), Peeping Tom (1960), Psycho (1960), Revenge of Frankenstein (1958), Rosemary's Baby (1968)
