Film Threat Review: Frankenstein

Delirious and dying, Victor warns that his pursuer still roams the ice, searching for him, and will stop at nothing to reach the ship. From his bed below deck, Victor begins to recount the events that led him there. His pursuit of the science of bringing life back to the dead began as both rebellion and obsession—born of his emotionally abusive father and the devastating loss of his beloved mother, whose death he could not accept. At university, his reckless experiments got him expelled for the sheer madness of his work. Seeing potential, Victor is approached by the charismatic Baron Von Seyfried (Christoph Waltz), who offers him funding and a secluded castle laboratory. The Baron is also the uncle of Elizabeth (Mia Goth), who is engaged to Victor’s brother, William.
