Greetings to lovers of the Bride of Frankenstein, Universal Horrors, redheads, and uniquely coiffed and scarred women. 2010 will mark the 75th anniversary of
the release of The
Bride of Frankenstein: One of the most undervalued characters in film history. How long will it be before she gets another chance to shine on the silver screen? And not in a Gothic age, or as an unscarred creature, but as a formidable woman surviving in our tense, wonderful, and uncertain new century. I believe that a godless and homeless redhead made out of cadavers, covered with scars but seeing herself as unique and eyecatching, and the possessor of a perfect human brain thanks to Dr. Pretorius, is the ideal kind of heroine for our white-knuckled age.
My name is Tim Hunt and I am the author of a Bride updating entitled Redheads and White Knuckles. In short, my Bride, renamed Ruby in honor of Elsa Lanchester's red hair, makes it to present day Boston by a loving twist of Fate, and discovers the many challenges which a redhead made out of the dead would confront in our movie-crazed and zealously religous society. But Ruby also experiences many epiphenies which a woman so new to human experience is ripe for being galvanized by. I have a top agent and my 86,000 word
manuscript is now being looked at by Putnam Books and Penguin Books. I really hope that when it gets published that so many of you Universal Monsters fans out there will read it and tell me what you thnk. For I am certain that the conjoined worlds of books and movies deserve a new take on the Bride. Remember, she doesn't have any bolts in her neck. If she wrapped her legendary hair in braids or a ponytail, and kept her scars covered, she could walk among us. Thanks for reading. Best of Luck-Frankenstein Legacy Collection on Blu-Ray-We can only pray-Tim Hunt.
