The Bride, 30 June 1999
Author: Tim Cox from Marietta, OH

Sting is a devious Frankenstein who creates a bride for his monster (wonderfully played by Clancy Brown). Beals is the bride and sadly, she is the one who brings the film to a halt...with a performance devoid of heart, wisdom and intelligence...probably because she is an actress devoid of heart, wisdom and intelligence.
