AIP Triple Bill

I WAS A TEENAGE FRANKENSTEIN (1957)

Professor Frankenstein (Whit Bissell) takes the body of a teenager killed in a car crash from the scene of the accident. He then restores the youth's body using other body parts. The head of the teen is still badly mangled but wanting to go in to the outside world ends up killing a girl. The teenage monster (Gary Conway) and Prof. Frankenstein then go out looking for a new head so they can restore the monsters face..

A more gory story than the Teenage Werewolf. Prof. Frankenstein is real nasty even getting the monster to kill his fiancée to protect his secret.
The teenage monster make up looks suitably horrendous.
The last reels are in colour for the final showdown.
It is worth noting that the UK print under the title 'Teenage Frankenstein' is cut so check out the US version for extended mayhem.
Contains one of the all-time great lines of dialogue:

"Speak. I know you have a civil tongue in your head because I sewed it back myself"
