Default Bride Of Frankenstein (Camp violin piece by Hermit)

Do any members know if the camp violin music played by the Hermit to 'The Monster' was an actual written piece (or) composed for the film? Best.

The hermit plays Schubert's Ave Maria.

What did you mean by "camp"? The whole film is thoroughly camp, but I'm not sure what's camp about that specific piece of music!

Anything to do with God bothering is surely camp?

Dave! You are right-the WHOLE film is camp and thouroughly amusing-an absolute masterpiece! I just meant that the 'violin piece' was camp and jaunty!
