Quick Hit

Frankenstein Conquers the World either bites hard or fizzles out; this one lands comfortably above water. The visual discipline keeps it sharp.

Full Take

This one swings hard at horror and only sometimes connects. The craft is either locked in or hanging by a thread, and this movie knows it. Japanese horror of this period tends to sharpen image, rhythm, and ritual into something meaner than it first appears. The set pieces are what matter, and this one gets some mileage out of them. That’s the difference between a curiosity and a real hit.
