Frankenstein

CriticsCritics: 82
AudienceAudience: 7.6

A brilliant, egotistical scientist attempts to defeat death by bringing a creature to life. As creator and creation struggle to understand their bond and place in the world, the experiment leads them into a dark, tragic journey shaped by loneliness, rejection, and the consequences of ambition.

My take

You may enjoy this if you like atmospheric gothic horror, emotionally charged monster stories, and striking visuals; Not for you if you want a brisk pace or a close adaptation of the original novel.
