Review: Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein

Guillermo del Toro brings a new perspective to the classic tale of Frankenstein, a story that has been adapted numerous times.

A brilliant but egotistical scientist creates a monstrous creature, leading to the downfall of both the creator and his creation.

The original novel, Frankenstein: or the Modern Prometheus, was written by Mary Shelley and first published anonymously in 1818.
