Great idea... not so great follow through

Warning: Spoilers
When I read about this movie I thought it was going to be an amazing horror movie that must have just been skipped over by thousands of viewers. Frankenstien is one of the most gripping, as well as one of the most richly ambiguous stories ever written, and I figured this movie was just about to show me exactly how beautifully malleable it was. Unfortunately, this movie exists better as a trailer or even a synopsis. I have to agree with what a lot of other reviewers have written... its just kinda boring. How could a movie about the literal re-materialization of the 3rd Reich be boring? Frozen Nazis coming back to life... That is some bold, offensive stuff especially in the 60s. I'll tell you how(don't read if you are a masochist and actually want to watch it)... it never actually happens!!! The movie never climaxes and the only part that is memorable is the hilarious expressions on the headless female's face whenever the doctor enters the room (not frightening at all unless you're 5). But seriously... this movie is not even worth watching ironically. its just pretty bad.
