I, Frankenstein 3D Blu-ray (2014) [Region Locked / Free]

[Joe D.]

It's also a great, well written story with excellent 3D. An underated film.

[ARCAM]

Right on Joe !! I Frankenstein is a little gem, and could never figure out the
negativity towards this film !

Anything with Bill Nighy is always awesome.

Ain't that the truth!

I watched Wild Target again recently, Limehouse Golem, all of the Underworld movies, and I Frankenstein. All so good in them home Cinema, 3d, Atmos, etc.

Didn't realize he appeared in so many 3D films.

Bill Nighy....a real beauty! With that acerbic British Accent, a downward inflection that cuts like a whip on your back....barking out orders and
raising hell...so great in the "Underworld" films ..{.along with superb
audio soundscapes on all the "Underworld" films} !! What's not to love ?

I grew up with Christopher Walken and when I first saw Bill Nighy I was like whoa he's the British Christopher Walken!! My biggest treat was seeing them work together in Turks & Caicos. BTW if you haven't seen the Worricker series I highly recommend them. Lot of big names in it!

Yeah, I liked Worricker, but I haven't seen it since on DVD, and the image quality was horrific, and I couldn't bare to see on my current gear. I wonder if it is in HD anywhere.

If you haven't already, do yourselves a favor and watch the Doctor Who episode titled "Vincent and The Doctor"...Nighy plays an museum tour guide and he's incredible. He always gives everything his all, no matter how big or small the part.

I finally got my hands on this. I love the Frankenstein lore and enjoyed this take on it. Better than Val Helsing.

Unfortunately my UK disc no longer plays all the way through, it was badly manufactured like many EIV discs and will soon no longer load at all. If you have this edition, check to see if you can skip through all the chapters as others have reported it failing too.



I have now replaced it with the German edition.

Thanks for the heads up. I also have the UK copy: I'll give mine a try this evening.

It might not be a overly desirable solution, and not possible for everyone (and perhaps not even legal?), but sometimes with a failed disc it might still be possible to rip it and thus the film that we've already paid for could be salvageable. Just a thought. Anyway, if my I,F disc has failed, I'll try ripping it to see if that works. (Caveat: I didn't especially love the movie or its 3D, but would say it's worth a watch..!)

Blu-ray players have built in error detection which ignores many of types of errors which stop a disc from being ripped.

I mentioned the possibility of ripping working because I came across this exact problem the other day: My 3D Blu-ray of The Mortician refused to play at all in one of my disc players and played with very bad errors in another that made it unwatchable. It ripped with no problems at all...
