How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A gothic revenge tale where Frankenstein's past literally awakens in ice to haunt him, with a scheming hypnotist pulling the creature's strings. It's a mid-60s horror film that trades on tension and control, who really commands the monster is the question.
