This is a relatively niche movie

After watching this movie, I found it very interesting. This is a monster movie. There is a brief introduction in the beginning. This format makes people feel very interesting. This is the first point. Then, it was a scene created by Frankenstein, with a kind of surrealism, so that three normal audiences, a madman, participated in, what an interesting metaphor, and then Frankenstein pressed the switch to let the corpse slow down Rising, the mystery symbolizing life and death has since been revealed, human ethics no longer exists, and the birth of Frankenstein is ushered in. This is the second point. The third point is that Frankenstein came to a woodcutter’s house. The woodcutter went out, leaving only the little daughter at home. The child saw the monster and invited him to play together. It can be seen that the little girl was not scared by the monster’s ugly appearance. Instead, it symbolizes the kindness and innocence of human beings. Then, the cruelest scene in the whole film comes. The little girl throws the picked flowers in the lake. Frankenstein feels very happy, and then the monster throws the little girl in. In the lake, this is the third point. It can be seen that the existence of Frankenstein is a disaster for himself and others. In human society, Frankenstein must be eliminated! This film left a question. When science is advancing rapidly and traditional social concepts are unacceptable, how should people choose? When Frankenstein was burned to death by people's raging fire at the mill, and was wiped out with people's grief, hatred and desire, is it just for a monster to bear all this? In any case, this movie influenced many people and became a classic of monster movies. It was a movie that could only be born in that era in the United States.

    ★★★☆, the acting skills of the actors are overwhelming, but such an adaptation lacks the portrayal of monsters, and the irony and deep meaning of the original work are much weaker...

    Although there is an implication of Frankenstein and the eccentric being superimposed (just like God and his creation) in the story, I have to say that the Chinese translation is too confusing, and it will make people mistakenly think that the eccentric is called Franken stan. The protagonist of this one is Frankenstein: a scientist who has been victimized by curiosity and ambition; the eccentric is more of an unconscious being.
