Gratuitous Laboratory Flasks: There is a surprising amount of glassware in Count Frankenstein's laboratory, given that his process seems to be entirely electrical in nature. |

I Love the Dead: Count Frankenstein accuses Genz of being a necrophiliac. Given he is seen groping the breasts of a corpse while Grave Robbing, the accusation appears to be true. |

comment |
May–December Romance: Count Frankenstein has an affair with his daughter Maria's school friend Krista (who is literally young enough to be his daughter). Krista seems quite infatuated with the Count, and Maria makes a joke about the possibility of Krista becoming her mother. |

Überwald: The film is set at some unspecified location in Europe that ticks most of the boxes for the Uberwald: a Mad Scientist living in a castle that is prone to lightning strikes, a village full of superstitious villagers itching to form a Torches and Pitchforks mob, a local official trying to drag the region into the modern day, and wild Neanderthals living in the forest (It Makes Just As Much Sense In Context). |

Wanted a Son Instead: A minor plot point is that because Count Frankenstein's only child is a daughter who is about to marry, the Frankenstein name will die with him. Krista hints none too subtly that it is not too late for him to remarry and father a male heir. |

Well-Intentioned Extremist: Count Frankenstein's ultimate goal is a noble one, in that he is seeking to conquer death (and, in the process, ensure that the name Frankenstein lives forever in medical history). However, he is so certain of the rightness of his goal that he willing to take serious ethical shortcuts in its pursuit. |
