I have a great fondness for classic monster movies. Dracula, Frankenstein, the Mummy, and the Wolfman are tales I like to revisit every Halloween season. These stories have been retold many times over the years (some more successfully than others), but it's always fun to see a new take on the original horror movies.
The latest monstrous epic is Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein. This new version is fantastically old-school, with real sets and practical effects. I look forward to seeing the end result.
Here's the official synopsis from Netflix:
Oscar-winning director Guillermo del Toro adapts Mary Shelley’s classic tale of Victor Frankenstein, a brilliant but egotistical scientist who brings a creature to life in a monstrous experiment that ultimately leads to the undoing of both the creator and his tragic creation.
Written and directed by Guillermo del Toro, "Frankenstein" is on Netflix this November. Starring Oscar Isaac, Jacob Elordi, Mia Goth, Felix Kammerer, with Charles Dance, and Christoph Waltz.
Frankenstein arrives in select theaters on October 17th and on Netflix on November 7th.
