NotesOne will never tire of Mary Shelley's prescience but the films devolved from her book are often less than praiseworthy. In this example a surgeon in New York repairs a broken and incomplete body from the bits that get thrown away in the course of his work as a surgeon. We know he should have stuck to modifying that Beetle!
