This month we are watching "Frankenstein" directed by James Whale. 

Starring: Colin Clive, Boris Karloff, John Boles, Edward Van Sloan, Dwight Frye

In this 1931 production, a scientist uses corpses to create a monster, who later incurs the wrath of the local villagers when he impulsively kills a little girl. Subsequently seeking out his creator, the creature flees with him to a nearby windmill.

The most influential horror film ever made, this stark and stylish work has a weird fairytale beauty. Boris Karloff gives one of the most indelible performances in American cinema as the monster, misjudged by the society that created him, at once terrifying and pathetic, a moving study of alienation and primitive anger.
