About

Synopsis

The Ghost of Frankenstein (1942) is a Universal horror film you can watch online on iFILM. Fourth in the original series, it opens with Ygor (Bela Lugosi) digging the monster out of rubble after a lightning strike and hauling him to Ludwig Frankenstein (Cedric Hardwicke) — the creator's second son, now a country doctor who wants nothing to do with the family business.

Ygor has a plan. He wants his own brain transplanted into the monster's body. Dr. Bohmer (Lionel Atwill) is just corrupt enough to help. Lon Chaney Jr. plays the creature. Directed by Erle C. Kenton in a tight 67 minutes, this is the last entry in the Universal run where the monster is given any interior complexity. Watch The Ghost of Frankenstein online on iFILM.
