IL mostro di Frankenstein (1921) also known as “The
Monster of Frankenstein” was the last silent Frankenstein film.
This version of the tale was directed by Eugenio Testa and written by Giovanni
Drovetti , starring Linda Albertini, Luciano Albertini and Umberto Guarracino. IL mostro di Frankenstein, the first European
version of the Frankenstein story was produced in Italy with financial backing
from Germany. Severely cut by Italian censors before its release the film was
only 39 minutes in length. Very little is known about this film save a few
posters and stills, in fact it is rarely mentioned in most horror film history
books and websites. IL mostro di Frankenstein is considered lost at this
time.
