Frankenstein Created Woman is a 1967 British Hammer Horror film directed by Terence Fisher. It stars Peter Cushing as Baron Frankenstein and Susan Denberg as his new creation. Also in the cast is Thorley Walters. It was followed, three years later, by Frankenstein Must Be Destroyed. The film was marketed with the tagline "Now Frankenstein has created a beautiful woman with the soul of the Devil!"
Where Hammer's previous Frankenstein films had concerned the physical aspects of the Baron's work, the interest here is in the metaphysical dimensions of life, such as the question of the soul, and its relationship to the body.
Frankenstein Created Woman was originally mooted as a follow-up to The Revenge of Frankenstein during its production in 1958, at a time when Roger Vadim's Et Dieu créa la femme (And God Created Woman) was successful. The film finally went into production at Bray Studios on 4 July, 1966. It was Hammer's penultimate production there.
