It's funny--I'm not bothered by any of these complaints, but then I love Jess Franco's Frankenstein double-feature (Drac Prisoner of Frank and Erotic Rites), so that should tell you where my standards lie. Also, I have a (nearly complete!) collection of adult Italian Frankenstein comics (fumetti), and they rip the "birth" of the monster straight out of EVIL. No wonder--it's a spectacular laboratory setup.
