Bikini Frankenstein is a 2010 American made for cable erotic film directed by Fred Olen Ray (under the pseudonym name Nicholas Juan Medina).
He travels back to his native Transylvania where he successfully revives the body of Eve (Jayden Cole), using electricity.
Five years later, Dr. Frankenstein is shown having moved back home to Transylvania, to continue working on his research with his assistant, Ingrid.
After sleeping with her, he succeeds in bringing the body of Eve, a deceased woman, back to life using energy from a lightning storm.
Later, due to the high demand of Cinemax, director Fred Olen Ray resurrected the title Bikini Frankenstein.
