Victor Frankenstein | Full Movie | Movies Anywhere

Victor Frankenstein is refreshingly character-driven and has a sense of joy in its storytelling that makes this great-grandfather of the corpse resurrection genre seem fresh and alive.

It's as if the film knows that you know that the film knows it can do better. Or something like that. Probably best not to think too hard about that.

The whole film should have just gone for funny, because no one could take this seriously.

Hammier than a ham and pineapple pizza without the pesky fruit, Victor Frankenstein fair rattles along as an epically daft but curiously enjoyable gothic horror.

Settings that Shelley probably envisioned, a cast that is intensely engaging, a bit of a love story, high action, and special effects bring life to a story that was otherwise thought dead.
