Frankenstein Unbound
- by Roger Corman and F. X. Feeney, directed by Roger Corman
- (at movie theaters, Uruguay, 1 November 1990)
Joe Buchanan invents a weapon that’s meant to be so terrible it will end war forever, but the weapon causes time rifts, one of which takes him (and his futuristic talking car, a.k.a. his electric carriage) back in time to where he meets Dr. Frankenstein (a standoffish man, but willing to talk science), Frankenstein’s monster (who is fascinated with the talking car), and Mary Wollstonecraft (a budding author).
The film did a good job of bringing Brian Aldiss’s book’s premise to the screen, with a better pace than the book, but the short dream sequences were ineffective for me and Dr. Frankenstein is more of a clichéd villain than in the book. —Michael Main
