Robert De Niro stars as the Creature, driven to revenge when his master, Dr. Victor Frankenstein (Kenneth Branagh) brutally rejects him after giving him life. Helena Bonham Carter stars as Frankenstein’s beloved Elizabeth, who is murdered by the embodiment of his creation, so that the Creature can have a companion with whom to live out his life; isolated from all mankind. Keeping to the spirit of the original novel, the film is stitched together from a number of thematic elements that are at once terrifying, passionate and shattering.
