Dans Frankenstein, le Dr Henry Frankenstein crée un monstre vivant à partir de parties de cadavres, mais la créature devient violente en luttant contre le rejet.

« The most important horror movie ever made, with Boris Karloff joining the immortals as the flat-headed, big-booted, sad-eyed monster. » (Empire, on “Frankenstein”)


« James Whale's FrankensteinFrom ECHO.lu and its sequel The Bride of Frankenstein are seminal works that combine Gothic horror with profound human themes, offering a chilling exploration of creation, monstrosity, and the quest for acceptance. Together, they stand as towering achievements in early cinema, defined by their atmospheric tension and unforgettable performances. » (The New York Times)
