What happens

Terror of Frankenstein (alternatively titled Victor Frankenstein) is a 1977 Gothic horror science fiction drama film directed by Calvin Floyd, based on the 1818 novel Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus by Mary Shelley. Starring Leon Vitali, Per Oscarsson, Stacy Dorning, Nicholas Clay, and Mathias Henrikson, the film tells the story of young anatomist Victor Frankenstein and his battle with a creature of his own making. The film’s footage was reused in a 2016 comedy called Director’s Commentary: Terror of Frankenstein, directed by Tim Kirk and produced by Rodney Ascher. The film is a spoof of film commentaries, starring the voices of Clu Gulager and Zack Norman as heavily fictionalized versions of the filmmakers of Terror of Frankenstein, with Vitali also appearing as himself.
