Bad Movie Night

The Frankenstein Theory (2013) is blowing icy boredom-chunks all over my screen. It's from the creators and makers of The Last Exorcism which already left me sour, but my love of the Frankenstein era led me to watching it. I'm glad, now I know it is awful.

A geek believes that Mary Shelly's Frankenstein is a true story disguised as fiction and this his ancestor was the creator of the monster. They drag you around ice and snow with mindless bantering and once again no worthy payoff or exciting violence to keep you interested.

For a great experience in Frankenstein lore, read the graphic novel from Avatar Press Warren Ellis' Frankenstein's Womb written by the madman Warren Ellis with immaculate artwork by Marek Oleksicki.
