Movie Description
A scientist involved in the creation of destructive new superweapons is accidentally hurled back in time when an experiment backfires. In the year 1817 he meets young Mary Shelley, an aspiring author, and Dr. Victor Frankenstein, whose own experiment has gone haywire. Seeking to stop his Monster's reign of terror, Frankenstein sees the visitor's vast scientific knowledge as a way to further his own monstrous endeavors. Based on the fascinating novel by Brian Aldiss, FRANKENSTEIN UNBOUND marks Roger Corman's return to directing after an absence of twenty years.
Synopsis
A lab accident sends a 21st-century scientist back in time to Switzerland, 1817. There he encounters Mary and Percy Shelley and Lord Byron, fellow mad scientist Dr. Frankenstein, and Frankenstein's monster. The monster has become uncontrollable and prone to violent outbursts, which will end only when the good doctor constructs a bride for the confused creature.

Industry Reviews
"...[The film] looks fine, and the performers are mostly good....The special effects are nicely spaced out, and the laugh lines fairly funny."
Canby
"...Corman retains his visual flair....The film is handsome-looking..."
