  • Frankenstein (1910): American short silent horror film produced by Edison Studios. It was directed by J. Searle Dawley, who also wrote the one-reeler's screenplay, broadly basing his "scenario" on Mary Shelley's 1818 novel Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus. This short motion picture is generally recognized by film historians as the first screen adaptation of Shelley's work. The small cast, who are not credited in the surviving 1910 print of the film, includes Augustus Phillips as Dr. Frankenstein, Charles Ogle as Frankenstein's monster, and Mary Fuller as the doctor's fiancée.

    The film is incredible for 1910 but that music is mind blowing.

    Yes, I recall reading years ago, that in the early days of motion pictures, a PAPER copy of the film had to be submitted to The US Library of Congress, for copyright purposes. Otherwise, almost NO films before 1915 or so would have survived. Wonderful soundtrack you've added! New subscriber!

    For a while, this 1910 version of FRANKENSTEIN was considered lost for many years--that is until a Cudahy, Wisconsin film collector named Alois F. "Al" Dettlaff (1921-2005) publicized it as being a film he had in his collection since the 1950s. The late Mr. Dettlaff is one of my heroes, however eccentric he was, because his movie collecting habits remind me of my own TV programming collection on DVDs. Thank you for preserving this cinematic gem, Mr. Dettlaff!!

    When I was a kid, my parents took my sister and me downtown to the movie theater to see The Gorgon. It was a slow and ponderous movie, but the soundtrack was dark and foreboding. We pleaded with our parents to take us home. Only time we ever left before the movie ended.
