Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Much better than expected!
I honestly wasn't expecting much from a movie with a silly title but, this is my favorite Hammer Frankenstein film. It never drags, has a unique plot, and made me laugh during one scene where the three young jerks sing an incredibly rude song beneath the bedroom window of the scarred girl. Peter Cushing gives a fine performance as always. If you collect Hammer films, don't even consider passing on this one.
Rating: - Gothic horror at its finest
Hammer Studios did 7 Frankenstein films from the late 50s to early 70s:

Rating:  - An entertaining entry in the Hammer Frankenstein canon
Frankenstein Created Woman is one of the better of Hammer's Frankenstein sequels, an efficient programmer that sees Peter Cushing's Baron trapping the soul of his guillotined assistant and putting it in the body of his disfigured girlfriend, only for the wronged boy to use her to kill those who really done the crime he was executed for. There's more build-up than payoff, but its very sedateness (indeed, almost cosiness) is part of the pleasure, and it's hard not to warm to the Baron's arrogance and ... Read More
Rating:  - Classic horror
Peter Cushing effortlessly dominates this very good Hammer film, which would prove to be the best of their late Frankenstein movies. What makes this film a cut above the average Hammer film is the fine script by Anthony Hinds, which gives the film the feel of a classic Victorian horror story. You could believe this was based on a book by Mary Shelley or Bram Stoker.
Cushing portrays Baron Frankenstein as a driven man, intent at all costs to prove that the soul lives on after death, and ... Read More
Rating:  - Just plain stupidity...
The Baron relocates the soul of a wrongly accused executed boyfriend into the "freshly dead" body of his physically scarred girlfriend (with a surgical beauty makeover of course). It makes you wonder why the Baron spent so much time making ugly monsters when he had such superior talent as a maxilo-facial plastic surgeon! Imagine the number of Hammer bit players who could have had longer careers had they just turned their faces over to Doctor Frank! And then you got to ask the question if the Baron ... Read More
