Lady Frankenstein - Update
We've now checked through the new masterm and we're happy to confirm that ours is the most complete version ever seen of this movie. It clocks in at exactly 99 minutes at 24fps! It's more complete than the Shout Factory DVD (yes, even including those awful inserts) and is also more complete than the super-rare Danish VHS, which was previously considered the most complete version out there!
You want more? We also have the never-before-seen Italian theatrical trailer, and alternative clothed inserts which were most likely produced for the Spanish release. And we also have the original Italian and English opening and closing credits.
The reason this restoration took much longer was because the original negative had originally suffered Italian film censor cuts, and it took a lot longer locating those missing snippets of nudity etc. But now they're all back.
Here are a few frame grabs to whet your appetites...
