Frankenstein's reputation has done well for him. He has created another "monster", but needs a mind to control it.

I must admit that I was definitely expecting a lot more from the 2018 movie anthology "Tales of Frankenstein" given its somewhat above average rating here on IMDb. So of course, with my love for the horror genre and Frankenstein being such an iconic story and character, I found the time to sit down and watch "Tales of Frankenstein".

Those that know me, know that I am extremely selective about horror movies and normally I am not attracted to it, very rare times I sit and watch horror films, specially the "classic kind" but I came across the opportunity to play this title on my home theater and immediately the 1st thing I was surprised by was the sound, it actually has great sound, although is not my type of movie but I was happy with Mel Novak's performance and I became a fan of Donald F. Glut after watching the bonus material on the disc, is really cool to see how this film maker has been around for so long making films out of passion, very inspirational and interesting.

When Donald F. Glut first announced Tales of Frankenstein, I was ecstatic.

Tales of Frankenstein is a 2018 horror film written and directed by Donald F. Glut.

This is a labor of love with an interesting array of actors, including old pros like Jerry Lacey and Ann Robinson, in a quartet of stories centering around descendants or disciples of Victor Frankenstein. Filmed in a style reminiscent of the classic Universal and Hammer horror films, it's more comedic than scary, but does have its moments of thrills and chills.

I was fortunate to see the world premiere of this movie in the theater. This series of 4 Tales of Frankenstein is clever and unexpected.

Four spin-off stories from the Frankenstein genre.

TALES OF FRANKENSTEIN of 1958 is the pilot from the British Hammer Studios, which was never continued as a TV series. This was made right after Hammer's first successful and highly influential Gothic Horror film THE CURSE OF FRANKENSTEIN (1957) starring the great Peter Cushing in the role of the eponymous Baron, a role which he would reprise five more times.
