there actually ARE some interesting parallels outside of the obvious (both frankenstein sequels) between bride of frankenstein (1935) and the revenge of frankenstein (1958) namely that the frankenstein character gets propositioned into an almost overtly sexual relationship to another man who admires his work and they continue the frankenstein character’s old work together.
