Guillermo del Toro’s Frankenstein reimagines Mary Shelley’s classic Gothic tale through a richly visual, character-driven lens. The story follows the brilliant but obsessive scientist Victor Frankenstein (Oscar Isaac), who defies nature by assembling and animating a living being from the dead. When his creation—a sensitive, intelligent Creature (Jacob Elordi)—awakens, Victor recoils in horror and abandons it, setting off a tragic chain of events. As the Creature seeks understanding, acceptance, and purpose in a world that fears him, the bond between creator and creation becomes deeply strained, leading to heartbreak, confrontation, and ultimately a poignant reckoning about humanity, responsibility, and forgiveness.
