This powerful, electrifying adaptation of Mary Shelley’s novel moves away from depicting Doctor Frankenstein’s creation as the shambling brute of many earlier versions. This is still that Gothic tale, but rather than a tale of monstrosity, it is more a comment on the consequences of how we treat one another.
This moving story depicts Frankenstein’s creature at the heart of the production, emphasizing the human message of the story, rather than a criticism of science.
