* WackySoundEffect: A (probably) unintentional example. The disposal unit Victor uses to get rid of body parts makes the sound of a flushing toilet. Originally, it made a grinding noise but the studio decided it was too gruesome and changed it. They probably went too far the other way, as the new effect caused audiences to laugh.

Added DiffLines:

* TheFaceless: Possibly due to not having the rights to the iconic Frankenstein design, the Monster always has it head covered in thick bandages that still invoke the shape of the classic look. The only time it doesn't is when it's on the operating table--showing that it has a huge skull instead of a face.
