The 1931 Classic that started the Ball rolling for the Frankenstein Monster. Karloff played the roll 2 more times(1935-Bride of Frankenstein & 1939-Son of Frankenstein) The Monster was then played by Lon Chaney Jr.(1942-Ghost of Frankenstein) Bela Lugosi (1943-Frankenstein meets the Wolfman) and finally by GlennStrange(Sam the Bartender in TV's Gunsmoke) who appeared in 1944-"House of Frankenstein, 1945-"House of Dracula" and finally in 1948's Abbott & Costello meet Frankenstein" Strange's Makeup((Bud Westmore) seemed more scary as the Monster to me growing up as a kid compared to Karloff's and others(Jack Pierce)...Interesting Note Jack Pierce was head of Universal Make up Dept in the 30's but was fired from Universal Thus bringing the famous Westmore Family into Universal's Monsters and Sci-fi creatures.....s.m
