Trivia:
Director James Whale originally did not want to do a sequel to Frankenstein. In the opening and closing credits the cast list says "The Monster's Mate" followed by a question mark. The "body count" in the original cut was 21. This was trimmed to 10 after pressure from the censors. Shot in 46 days at a cost of approximately $400,000. Boris Karloff sweated off 20 pounds labouring in the hot costume and make-up. The musical soundtrack for this film proved so popular, it was used again in the Flash Gordon serials starring Buster Crabbe .
