In Search of the Real Frankenstein (DVD)

Long before Mary Shelley wrote her famous story of Dr. Frankenstein and his monster, a real-life mad scientist called Johann Konrad Dipple dabbled in similar grave-robbing and reanimation. This History Channel special uncovers Dipple`s eager experiments with fresh corpses, as well as his attempts to concoct life-giving potions. Copyright (C) Muze Inc. 2005. For personal use only.
