BRIDE OF FRANKENSTEIN
May 18, 2013  | By David Bianculli

TCM, 8:00 p.m. ET

 
This 1935 sequel has as many memorable set pieces as the original – and Elsa Lanchester, as the title character, is as visually iconic as her hulking intended mate, played by Boris Karloff. James Whale’s direction is as evocative as it was in the 1931 original, and Lanchester’s skittish, birdlike bride is a great piece of genre acting.
