Openly queer film director James Whale’s gothic masterpiece weaves the artistic style of German Expressionism, a distinctly camp sensibility, and a story of otherness that resonates throughout history. One of the greatest artistic triumphs of the Universal monster empire, this all-time classic features electric performances by Boris Karloff and Elsa Lanchester.
