Nice find. I grabbed the movie and will watch it one of these days. Before your post, I wasn't aware of the UltraViolet format or the Sony Pictures Store! Thanks.
I went to my preferred movie rating and review website,
Rotten Tomatoes. There were so many Frankenstein movies listed that it seems like there has been a Frankenstein movie produced for every year since 1910! I finally found the movie--it was under "1994" instead of "1993," for some reason.
In case anyone is wondering what I found, 39% of the reviewers liked the movie, and gave it a 5.5/10. Of the audience, 49% liked it, but gave the movie only a 3.1/5 rating. Here's
the dedicated webpage for the movie.
I wouldn't put too much stock in those ratings, however. For one thing, people are bound to have Frankenstein movie fatigue. I'm sure that people have gotten so tired of seeing Frankenstein movies that it's hard for them find it within themselves to give good ratings to a new one that comes along. Too, the plot and ending of the movie are so familiar to people that there isn't any curiosity and anticipation about those things to help keep people's interest while watching the movie.
