Institute History
Description
A wacky take-off on the original Frankenstein but here a young boy miraculously brings his pet dog back to life. The 28 minutes film is an affectionate, clever and creative spoof on '30s horror films. Fans of cinefantastique will revel in its references, and children and film-lovers of all ages will be delighted by this quirky new cult classic. Paul Bartel, making something of a career himself playing school teachers (Rock 'n' Roll High School), appears as the science teacher who inadvertently inspires the boy to undertake his wild experiment.

While this information is limited and doesn't necessarily represent the full list of participants (e.g. actors and crew), it is the list given to us by the main film/play/project contact at the time, based on the space restrictions of our publications. Each entry in the Online Archives is meant as a historical record of a particular film, play, or project at the time of its involvement with Sundance Institute. For this reason, we can only amend an entry if a name is misspelled, or if the entry does not correctly reflect the original publication.
