Frankenstein

Thursday, October 19th at 7pm

The final feature in our trio of classic monster films, this screening of Frankenstein will also benefit Theater in the Open, with $5 from each ticket purchased going directly to their organization. In anticipation of their annual fundraiser, MAUDSLAY IS HAUNTED, the character "Dracu" will join us live at the theater. Come on out for a show, a laugh, and maybe a bit of a scare.

This iconic horror film from director James Whale follows the obsessed scientist Dr. Henry Frankenstein as he attempts to create life by assembling a creature from body parts of the deceased. Aided by his loyal misshapen assistant, Fritz, Frankenstein succeeds in animating his monster, but it escapes into the countryside and begins to wreak havoc. Frankenstein searches for the elusive being and eventually must confront his tormented creation.
