Bobbie Wygant sits down with actress Veronica Carlson in 1969 for the U.S. release of her film Frankenstein Must Be Destroyed. #hammerhorror #veronicacarlson #frankensteinmustbedestroyed #petercushing
I'd be curious to hear why you think that. The Hammer Frankenstein earlier films (and Monster From Hell after this one) are mostly built around the idea of the audience having a bit of a love-hate relationship with the Baron (maybe "love-exasperation" in Evil of Frankenstein), and playing up the dark comedy of what he does. Must Be Destroyed treats him more like a threat; a sociopathic, vaguely Hitchcockian villain who sees other people as things, and who only bothers to be nice to them when he can't figure out how to bully or blackmail them.
