Curiosidades
The Breen Office ordered a number of changes in both the film's script and its original cut. One of the changes that was ordered was of the sound of the device that Baron Victor von Frankenstein used to dispose of the body parts that he was using to create his monster. The original grinding sound that the device made while doing so was considered too horrific, so it was replaced with the sound of a flushing toilet, which resulted in unintended laughter from audiences. This was believed for a long time to be the first time ever that the sound of a flushing toilet was heard in a U.S. film. UPDATE: A toilet was also flushed in the film Las uvas de la ira (1940), which was released 18 years before this one.

Pifias
The degree of the damage that was done to Baron Victor von Frankenstein's injured left eye changes from scene to scene throughout the entire film.

Citas
Baron Victor von Frankenstein: [reading from his ancestor's stone memorial marker] "I, Frankenstein, began my work in the year 1740 A.D. with all good intentions and humane thoughts to the high purpose of probing the secrets of life itself with but one end, the betterment of mankind."
[speaking for himself]
Baron Victor von Frankenstein: So wrote my ancestor, but first he had to learn how flesh is made. He had to discover the art of transplanting vital organs from human beings into his creature and knitting them together until they all had all the attributes of God-inspired birth. Of course, I must admit that perhaps he was not too scrupulous about where he got his raw material.

The Last Association

The last association that Boris Karloff had with the Frankenstein character came in this low budget Allied Artists film that I remember seeing in the theater in 1958. It was not the best of endings.

This time Boris Karloff is playing the last descendant of the Frankenstein clan who's an old man and who in his youth was tortured by the Nazis in an effort to divulge Frankenstein family secrets. It left him quite understandably twisted.

Karloff is putting up with a movie company who is shooting on his castle grounds, no doubt shooting a film like Frankenstein 1970, a low budget thriller. The money they're paying him however is paying for an atomic reactor, something his ancestor didn't have, maybe that's the missing ingredient.

Of course the bodies start falling, four of them to be precise as Karloff searches for what he needs to revive the Frankenstein monster which he has found and preserved.

Boris Karloff and his contemporary Bela Lugosi did both great horror films and a lot of junk. Frankenstein 1970 sad to say falls in the latter category.
