Frankenstein was first published over 200 years ago, but Mary Shelley's Gothic novel has more than stood the test of time. Many adaptations have been made for stage and screen in the two centuries since, with the book lending itself to some of the best horror movies ever, but the most recent of which is Guillermo del Toro's new Netflix film.
Oscar Isaac stars as brilliant, egotistical scientist Victor Frankenstein, while Jacob Elordi plays his tortured creation, the Creature. The film is a long-gestating passion project for the Pan's Labyrinth and Shape of Water director, but del Toro's movie doesn't stay 100% faithful to its source material.
