Jesse James Meets Frankenstein's Daughter (1966)

This movie is so underrated. It not a 2.9. There are not a lot of movies scarier then The Exorcist. And this is one of them. This is an underrated horror classic. It is a sequel to Frankenstein and It is great. This is one of the scariest movies of all time. This movie has a great story line. It also has great acting. It also has great special effects. Do not lesson to people who hate this movie it is a true horror classic. This movie is a must see. If this movie does not scary you no movie will. John Lupton was a great actor. This movie better then Frankenstein (1931). And that is not easy to do. Frankenstein (1931) is very scary. And this is scarier. The is a great movie.

This was much more entertaining than I expected. The overacting is in a class of its own. The actress who plays Frau Frankenstein chews up the scenery, but the actress who plays Juanita is even more over the top. The wide-eyed reaction shots are beyond what you could expect from even the worst street mime. The fact that her makeup was applied with a wide-tip Sharpie helps. And the vengeful cowboy is no slouch either when it comes to hamming it up. The production values are obviously not high-quality, but better than you'd expect thanks to getting the lab equipment from the original Frankenstein films. The Frankenhouse is the absolutely worst matte painting that I have ever seen. Cal Bolden is everything that you could want in a giant, zombie, muscle slave. When Frau F says, "Igor, go to your room!," she really should have said, "Igor, go to MY room!" And in the scene when she's bitterly complaining about being romantically spurned by Mr. James... and standing next to a musclegod who obeys her every whim... and there's a bed in the background... she really needs to sort out her priorities. I watched it without Mr. Briggs commentary and had a blast.

Thought dead, Jesse James joins the Wild Bunch (!) for a stagecoach robbery. Double crossed, he escapes an ambush and takes his wounded partner Hank (Harry?) Tracy to the house of Frankenstein's granddaughter for treatment. She instead plans on turning the hulking Tracy into the newest Frankenstein monster.Not for all tastes, this is actually pretty good if you catch it in the right mood and if you have a sense of humor.Jesse James Meets Frankenstein's Daughter is neither the best Jesse James nor Frankenstein movies ever made. However, it's a lot of kookie fun. Also, it's slightly better than the infamous companion film Billy The Kid Versus Dracula.Under the supervision of of veteran director William Beaudine, this is a pretty even mixture of the old poverty row western and horror films, slathered in a thick coat of 1960's color and shot in widescreen.Giving credit where credit is due - unlike many other Jesse James flicks, this one actually cast an actor that looks like James!

I was looking for zombie films and came across this. I couldn't resist the title. A film from a director that gave us such classics as Billy the Kid versus Dracula and Bela Lugosi Meets a Brooklyn Gorilla. I can't wait to see those.The sound on my copy was terrible. Lips moved out of conjunction with words, and sometimes it sounded as if a woman was speaking when it was a man. When the sound got better, it was out of sync with the picture by several minutes. Terrible, but I suffered through it for art's sake.Jesse's (John Lupton) friend (Cal Bolder) gets shot and he is searching for a doctor, while running from the Marshall (Jim Davis). Guess who he finds? What it's the granddaughter of Dr. Frankenstein (Narda Onyx).Also stars Cuban-born spitfire Estelita Rodriguez as Juanita. She dies mysteriously a month before the film was released. She and Maria Frankenstein are both after Jesse's affections.After sending Jesse on a wild goose chase, Maria kills his friend and turns him into Igor (the zombie part).A sad ending for a truly horribly funny picture.
