Product Description

Synopsis

On the graveyard planet of Karn, the eternal Sisterhood fights to keep the sacred flame alive. High in the castle, the brilliant surgeon Mehendri Solon conducts gruesome experiments on living flesh. And as a storm approaches, evil from the depths of Time Lord history plots its return to the land of the living.
But is even the Doctor’s mind a match for the Brain of Morbius?

5.0 out of 5 stars Get it on DVD if you can, 23 April 2009
By Barney McGrew "Charlie" (UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)      
Arguably the second great Tom Baker Doctor Who story, this one sees the production team in full Gothic horror mode for the first but not last time. Landing in what seems to be a spaceship graveyard on the storm-lashed planet of Karn, The Doctor and Sarah-Jane Smith seek refuge in a nearby scientist's laboratory, where they soon discover that he is working on resurrecting one of The Time Lords' most infamous black sheep...
Whilst I have to agree with some of the comments about set design and effects, that is what 70s 'Who' was all about and true fans will see it for what it is - fantastic fun and glorious escapism!
Now available on DVD, I would recommend that over hoary old VHS.

5.0 out of 5 stars Dr Who does Frankenstein, and does it so very well, 18 Jun 2005
By A Customer
This is a shameless rip of the 1930s Frankenstein films. All the Hollywood Gothic trademarks are there, from the crashing chadelier to the torch-wielding lynch mob, the grotesquely ugly monster, the hunchbacked assistant and the craggy lightning-silhouetted rocks. Star of the show is Philip Madoc, who makes the most of his over-ripe dialogue with a perfectly judged performance that blends fanticism and amoral cunning to great effect. And the production's relish for blood and gore makes this hugely enjoyable. One to remember.

4.0 out of 5 stars Doctors Frankenstein Horror Show, 30 Sep 2004
By Moose (Aylesbury, BUCKS United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
All the best aspects of the Baker era Who: expansive, well executed sets; superbly over the top acted characters; science based 'facts', and borrow the plot of a well known story, in this case Shelleys 'Frankenstein'.
Brain.. is a superb story, Baker in full SERIOUS pomp, Sarah at her dizzy, heroic best and editing and effects to match.
Watch out for the Doctors 'Mind Bending' match with the villain of the hour, the sequence reveals that Hartnell's version of Who is not the first of the Doctors lives, and many of the crew are featured as past lives, lookout for Phillip Hinchcliffe in particular! A great who collection addition.
