{Book Synopsis}

Based on the characters from the book Frankenstein by Mary Shelley.

Mary Shelley began writing Frankenstein when she was only eighteen. At once a Gothic thriller, a passionate romance, and a cautionary tale about the dangers of science, Frankenstein tells the story of committed science student Victor Frankenstein. Obsessed with discovering the cause of generation and life and bestowing animation upon lifeless matter, Frankenstein assembles a human being from stolen body parts but; upon bringing it to life, he recoils in horror at the creature's hideousness. Tormented by isolation and loneliness, the once-innocent creature turns to evil and unleashes a campaign of murderous revenge against his creator, Frankenstein.

Daniel Radcliffe {Igor}

Well we all know Daniel Radcliffe from the Harry Potter movies. I'm not sure he's had many more successful movies since then, but maybe it will change with this movie. Other movies in his future are Swiss Army Man, Imperium, Now You See Me 2, Young Americans.

Director Paul McGuigan

Paul McGuigan has directed such films as Lucky Number Slevin, and Push. He does not have any films in the works right now. Look at all the props of disgustingness. This looks like it would have been a fun and creative movie to make.
