Guillermo Del Toro's Frankenstein: A Haunting Epic
To close out this year's Halloween horror-thon, Luis Zonenberg checked out Guillermo Del Toro's dark reimagining of Mary Shelley's classic novel, Frankenstein.
The original Frankenstein film from 1931 and its sequel, the Bride of Frankenstein, were favorites of Del Toro's from his childhood, greatly influencing his love for monsters and gothic romances.
Development for this rendition started in 2007, with the film being fast-tracked in recent years, thanks in part to Netflix.
The story centers on Baron Victor von Frankenstein (Oscar Isaac), who vows to overcome death after the tragic loss of his mother.
