Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaClosed captioning on the film gives away the climactic discovery of the monster's, that he has a name.
- GoofsAt the end, Elizabeth is dead. But when Adam carries her, her arm is completely wrapped around his neck as he carries her to the fire. A dead person's arm could not maintain such a position, even if placed there by the carrier; only a live person, using muscles, would be able to keep the arm up like that. Without muscles, it would just hang down behind him. Also, as he carries her, his left arm is supporting her torso and her head is upright. Again, a head maintaining such a position would be impossible for a dead person. A dead person would have no muscles to keep a head up. Instead, it would droop backwards in the direction of gravity. Finally, as he places her down on the burning logs, her head slowly descends, whereas it should fall down, since, again, there are no working muscles to control its descent. All of this is also true if she were merely unconscious.

Featured review
6.75 of 10. Frankenstein zombie or Frankenstein clone? It's definitely not Frankenstein robot. Nonetheless, it feels like a horror story inspired by Philip K. Dick's Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? - or at least the the question, not the more developed Blade Runner adaptation.
It's better than any of the film/TV versions of Frankenstein. Rather than trying to stay literal to a story we know is, at least technically, nonsense, it pursues a more realistic though still at the moment purely sci-fi angle.
What makes the film engaging beyond the slightly revised plot setup is the pacing and the thoughtful adaptation and fitting in of the book characters that interact with "Monster". What makes it less engaging is the narration. By the end it feels like a setup for either a TV series or a sequel or 2 rather than a complete story.
