Project: Frankenstein

About This Movie

Project: Frankenstein is this intriguing take on the classic tale, diving deep into Victor's psyche. The atmosphere is thick with dread and ambition, capturing that spiraling obsession beautifully. The pacing is deliberate, allowing you to really sit with Victor's turmoil, which is a nice contrast to the frantic energy you might expect. The practical effects are surprisingly well executed for a drama, adding that tangible quality which sets it apart from other adaptations. It’s less about the monster and more about Victor’s unraveling relationships, showcasing some strong performances that really nail the emotional weight. There’s something to be said about how it explores the thin line between genius and madness.
