Одержимый идеей попрать законы жизни и смерти, молодой ученый Франкенштейн готов на все ради познания неизведанного. В своей лаборатории он сшивает из частей тел покойников, выкраденных из морга, гигантского монстра и оживляет его мощным электрическим разрядом. Но происходит неожиданное: напуганное еще больше, чем его создатель, чудовище исчезает во мраке ночи. Превзойдя самые смелые ожидания Франкенштейна, оно способно мыслить и переживать. Отвергнутое своим «отцом» и гонимое людьми, чудовище клянется отомстить Франкенштейну, лишив его самого дорогого. Ученому предстоит встреча с судьбой, олицетворяемой его же собственным творением. Оставляя за собой все новые жертвы, чудовище подбирается к цели…
"Frankenstein" (2004), a gripping adaptation produced by RTL2 and Hallmark Entertainment, was filmed in the scenic locales of Germany and Slovakia. Directed by Kevin Connor, this rendition breathes new life into Mary Shelley's classic tale, offering a fresh perspective on the timeless story of creation and responsibility. The film stars Alec Newman as Victor Frankenstein, with Luke Goss portraying the iconic Creature, delivering performances that delve deep into the emotional and ethical quandaries at the heart of the narrative. Set against the backdrop of 19th-century Europe, the movie meticulously recreates the era's atmosphere, enhancing the Gothic elements that define Shelley's original work. The haunting visuals and somber tones effectively capture the isolation and despair experienced by both Victor and his creation, drawing viewers into their tragic journey. The screenplay, penned by Mark Kruger, remains faithful to the source material while introducing nuanced character developments that enrich the storytelling. One of the standout aspects of this adaptation is its exploration of the relationship between Victor and the Creature. Rather than focusing solely on horror, the film delves into the psychological and moral complexities of their bond, highlighting themes of loneliness, rejection, and the quest for understanding. This approach humanizes the Creature, presenting him not just as a monster, but as a being yearning for acceptance and connection, which adds a poignant layer to the narrative. "Frankenstein" (2004) successfully balances the eerie and the emotional, making it a compelling watch for both fans of the original novel and newcomers to the story. The collaborative effort of RTL2 and Hallmark Entertainment, combined with the evocative settings of Germany and Slovakia, results in a memorable adaptation that honors Mary Shelley's vision while offering a unique cinematic experience.
