Guillermo del Toro's "Frankenstein" reimagines Mary Shelley's classic, focusing on the tragic relationship between Victor Frankenstein (Oscar Isaac) and his creation (Jacob Elordi). It's less a horror film and more a poignant exploration of humanity, fatherhood, and the consequences of ambition. The film boasts stunning visuals, a powerful score, and moving performances. It's a visually rich and emotionally resonant adaptation, highlighting the monster's yearning for connection and Victor's agonizing remorse. While it will stream on Netflix, the film's beauty warrants a big-screen viewing.
