Rob Zombie Presents The Words & The Music Of Frankenstein

Liner Notes: "Whenever people ask me why I am the way I am, I say it is because of films like Frankenstein. I can't even remember a time in my life when these films weren't important to me. Most of my childhood was spent spellbound in front of the tv watching these fascinating tales of horror. As Mickey Mouse is to the world of animation and Elvis Presley is to the world of rock & roll, Frankenstein is to the world of fright. After almost seventy years the emotions of Frankenstein remain as powerful now, if not more so, than they were in 1931. Under the brilliant direction of James Whale, the legendary Boris Karloff gave a stunning performance as Frankenstein's creation - frightening and misunderstood, a pitiful misfit who speaks to the outsider in all of us. So sit back and begin your journey into madness through the words and music of Frankenstein."
