Tell me name one of your favoriter Frankenstein's Monster from the Hammer Frankenstein movies.
The Cruse of Frankenstein
The Revenge of Frankenstein
The Evil of Frankenstein
Frankenstein Created Woman
Frankenstein Must Be Destroyed
Horror of Frankenstein
Frankenstein and the Monster from Hell
Hi there! I absolutely LOVE The Evil of Frankenstein!!! It is the ultimate for me. Fabulous and delightful!!
Nothing - I did absolutely nothing, and it was all I dreamed it could be.
Although Freddie Jones as the tragic brain-transplant victim in Frankenstein Must Be Destroyed is not exactly a monster, he gets my vote. A close second would be Michael Gwynn's moving performance as the second Karl in Revenge of Frankenstein.
Honorable Mention: Christopher Lee as the "original" monster in Curse of Frankenstein. He's still quite a shock.
My absolute least favorite is David Prowse as the dumb-ass monster in Horror of Frankenstein. This is not so much Prowse's fault as the concept. Give me Kiwi Kingston's Universal reject in Evil of Frankenstein any day. (Prowse is okay, though, as the Neanderthal monster in Frankenstein and the Monster from Hell).

The thread title doesn't say Hammer Monster, so how come no-one is mentioning
Peter Boyle
Robert DeNiro
Shuler Hensley

Wake up dude, he says "from the Hammer Films" right in the body of his post! Anyway, I will always be partial to Christopher Lee.
shareYes, sorry.
Then it has to be Susan Denberg.
Sorry to have to be so obvious.

My earnest request, repeated yearly.
Come home Rudolph, I've sorted the Mistletoe and Sherry.
Love, Santa.
It has to be Sir Christopher Lee from the Hammer original The Curse of Frankenstein. Lee is an amazing actor and the grotesque appearance was quite a shock and change from the Universal appearance made famous by Boris Karloff.
shareHate to depart from your list, but without a doubt the way Boris Karloff played the monster in the original is so far superior to anything ever done since. Those who haven't seen it in awhile, check it out.
2nd choice is Michael Sarrazin. Just another incredible performance from beauty and child like innocence to ugly rage and revenge.
I think the two performances above showed the child like qualities the monster possessed early in life to the rage and hatred brought on to them by mankind. They weren't just one dimensional monsters.
Its obviously the one in The Curse of Frankenstein. But overall, the best Frankenstein monster ever on screen is the one in Dracula vs Frankenstein
