Exceptional "behind the scenes" publicity shot featuring Peter Cushing (Baron Victor Frankenstein) and Veronica Carlson (Anna Spengler) sitting on a Victorian ball and claw foot bench holding each other closely. Mr. Cushing is also holding a copy of his script.

Frankenstein Must Be Destroyed is a 1969 British horror film directed by Terence Fisher for Hammer Films, starring Peter Cushing, Freddie Jones, Veronica Carlson and Simon Ward. The film is the fifth in a series of Hammer films focusing on Baron Frankenstein, who, in this entry, terrorizes those around him in a bid to uncover the secrets of a former associate confined to a lunatic asylum.

The scene where Frankenstein rapes Anna was filmed over the objections of both Peter Cushing and Veronica Carlson, and director Terence Fisher, who halted it when he felt enough was enough. It was not in the original script, but the scene was added at the insistence of Hammer executive James Carreras, who was under pressure to keep the American distributors happy.

With five Frankenstein movies already being released up to this point (1969), Frankenstein Must Be Destroyed is definitely one of the most popular Hammer Films from Director Terence Fisher showcasing Peter Cushing's (Baron Victor Frankenstein) superlative acting skills.

Variety called the film "a good-enough example of its low-key type, with artwork rather better than usual (less obvious backcloths, etc.) a minimum of artless dialogue, good lens work by Arthur Grant and a solid all round cast."

The Monthly Film Bulletin called it "the most spirited Hammer horror in some time. The crudities still remain, of course, but the talk of transplants and drugs seem to have injected new life into the continuing story of Baron Frankenstein."
