A deformed tormented girl drowns herself after her lover is framed for murder and guillotined.

Driven by revenge, she carries out a violent retribution on those responsible for both deaths.

Our read: Frankenstein Created Woman (1967) reads as a heavy, steady, inventive frankenstein · hammer · cushing entry — measured in intensity, mid-stakes in scope, cold in temperature, nihilistic in outlook.
