Negative Positive
Title: 1932 vs later versions
Review: The Laughton film is a classic. Most of the horror is left up to the imagination of the viewer. That's the best kind of horror film. The Brando version is absurd & weird, nothing like the novel. His depiction of the Dr. as some kind of albino is ridiculous. Typical example of Hollywood producer putting up with his nonsence just to get his name on the film, regardless of artistic merit.
