I Was a Teenage Frankenstein (1957)
** (out of 4)
Fair horror film has Professor Frankenstein (Whit Bissill) taking a teenage body from an automobile wreck and bringing it back to life. I think the biggest problem with this film is that it was rushed to cash in on I Was a Teenage Werewolf because the screenplay to this film isn't nearly as good as the previous one. There are a few laughs to be had in the camp fashion and that includes the make up, which is quite silly looking but all of these laughs make for a slightly enjoyable film. The film is a tad bit dull in its short running time to work all the way around but it's a solid film if you're looking for some silly fun.
