Dr. Pretorius: We shall drink to our partnership. Do you like gin? It is my only weakness.
The Monster: Alone: bad. Friend: good!
Dr. Pretorius: To a new world of gods and monsters!
Mary Shelley: It's a perfect night for mystery and horror. The air itself is filled with monsters.
Trivia:
The musical soundtrack for this film proved so popular, it was used again in the Flash Gordon serials starring Buster Crabbe.
The "body count" in the original cut was 21. This was trimmed to 10 after pressure from the censors.
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.
When filming the scene where the monster emerges from the burnt windmill, Boris Karloff slipped and fell into the water-filled well. Upon being helped out, he realized he had broken a leg in the fall. The metal struts used to stiffen his legs (for the famous "monster lurch") helped keep the bones in place until they could be properly set.
