FRANKENSTEIN (1910) HD

Hellraiser scenes similar

Danse Macabre on the soundtrack. Excellent.

Filmed entirely in The Bronx NYC

why is it always this damn song its everywhere

When Mary Shelley wrote Frankenstein, aristocrats still wore powdered wigs and stockings. And yet this movie is closer in time to Shelley writing Frankenstein than it is to us.

Thank you for saving this part of History. I've been looking for this clip for 15 years p. Thank you for your hard work

Outstanding!

I like this version.

Creature being destroyed by fire at end was reversed to being created by fire at beginning.

Damn came out before the Titanic sank

Public domain !

Thanks.

To put this in perspective they hadn't even finished building the Titanic when this came out

I love this because its more accurate (probably the most accurate) to the book. There are some things that are not exact, like the monster being evil upon creation, but its still very good. I would like to see a modern, book accurate movie some day.

Good rendition

wonderful!

Watching world's first horror film in 2024, where the world of cinematography has reached today !! Without these innovators it would have been impossible. This is not just a silent movie. It's mankind's heritage in visual anthropology. Silent movies have their own charm. 1910 was exciting for Halley's comet too and slowly technology was taking off...cars, flights, ships

This footage was lost but than found again

Bravo!! Outstanding. The glory that was Hollywood. Ax

Can someone explain the end of the film? Is the message supposed to be the real evil was Dr F, and not the monster he created? Anyway, it was certainly “liberal adaptation“ of the book, as promised.

Maybe one day AI would be able to restore this to some extent.

In this adaptation, Frankenstein Monster's, though indeed created through chemistry, was more of a reflection of the hatred for humanity that laid inside of Victor. It can implied that during the monster's creation process, supernatural forces also joined in the mix due to Victor's state of mind, which can be deduced that it was at it's worst, due to him relentlessly trying to find the "formula of life" during the past 2 years, (very probably) in secret. In the end, Victor found true love, in the form of his marriage with Elizabeth, which was more than enough to make the hatred inside of Victor's mind to disappear, including the Monster itself, when it finally looked at the mirror in disgust, because only then the Monster realized who he truly was.

Lotsa 4th wall breaking in these films. Very theatrical, played directly to an audience. The looking into the camera and basically saying “Did you see that?” kinda stuff. The infancy of movies

Brilliant

My grandparents were born in 1910, so as the great first moving pictures were born, maybe even a little earlier. ❤❤❤😊😊😊

Man… that monster is pretty terrifying.

Can't they digitally clean this up?

First of all, this seems less like Frankenstein and more like Ratatouille.

Secondly, it's obvious that attention to script details wouldn't become a thing for another 20 years after this; otherwise, we would've gotten a better sense of what turned Dr. Frankenstein "evil" in the first place.

Who's watching this in 2024

フランケンシュタインの最初の映画

I dont know why classic movie like this seems creepy for me. But its trully legend, Frankenstein

I winder when movies started to get longer. 1925's Phantom of the Opera is 90 minutes. 1924's GREED was 2 hours 20 after being cut from 4 and a half hours!

Well at least in this version he didnt kill Elisabeth.

Love that it opens with "Dance macabre"

Might have been interesting to see the original inter-titles. Subtitles could have been added if they were too blurry to read.

Fu k that music terrified me when it came in

So it was all a dream....

2025 🖤

Muito foda

2025

Honestly, really enjoyed. The mirror scene itself and the way they used the mirror feels super ahead of its time. Now I must watch some other 1910 movies to compare.

I like the ending. Dr Drankenstien sees himself finally as the true monster in the mirror.

Only us 1910 kids remember how hard this hit when it came out

Is that Gene Simmons?

Well that was different.

2025 😂

I didn't understood the ending?😅
