Frankenstein (Mary Shelley’s…)

In 1994, actor Robert Deniro starred in the first motion picture to faithfully follow Mary Shelley’s immortal novel, Frankenstein. Previous films had generally treated Frankenstein’s creation (the creature was actually named Adam—not Frankenstein) as yet another scary monster, a dumb brute bent on evil and destruction. In the original treatment seen here, the creature is a tragic figure brought to life, then abandoned by an uncaring master.

After being left for dead by Doctor Frankenstein, who is stricken with guilt over his unholy actions, the creature finds his maker by reading Frankenstein’s journal and forces him to create a monster bride so that he might not be lonely all his life. Frankenstein agrees for fear that the monster will kill his fiancée.

This four-part mini-series is the comic book adaptation to the film.
