Terence Fisher directs(for the last time) this sixth and last entry in the Hammer studios Frankenstein series starring Peter Cushing as Dr. Frankenstein, now hiding out in an insane asylum conducting more experiments in life and death. He is now helped by fellow inmate Dr. Helder(played by Shane Briant) and a mute girl(played by Madeline Smith) The Baron is building a new monster from the bodies of dead inmates, but of course it will all end tragically as it always does... Peter Cushing is fine, despite his frail health, but film is awfully tired and overly lurid. Still, the ending is quite fitting when you think about it...
