Frankenstein is a 2015 American science fiction horror film written and directed by Bernard Rose.

The film is told from the monster's point of view, as he is created, escapes into the modern world, and learns about the dark side of humanity.

Victor Frankenstein (Danny Huston) and his wife, Elizabeth (Carrie-Anne Moss), are scientists who bring to life Adam, a fully-grown, handsome young man (Xavier Samuel) with the mind of an infant.

Dr. Frankenstein attempts to euthanize his creation with lethal injections, but Adam thrashes and screams as the chemicals surge through his body.

In a park, he meets a little girl (Mckenna Grace) and they play a game of throwing sticks into a lake.

Two vengeful policemen drive Adam to an empty lot, beat him, and shoot him in the head, but he survives, awakens hours later, and wanders until he meets Eddie, a blind, homeless man (Tony Todd).

Feeling hopeless and angry, he uses the GPS on Wanda's phone to guide him to the Frankensteins' residence.

[3] Pat Torfe for Bloody Disgusting said "A strong central performance by Samuel, with some great modern reimaginings of scenes from the novel that perfectly mirror the original story, make for an emotional and dramatic horror tale.

"[4] Louis H.C., also writing for Bloody Disgusting, said of the film, "Rarely have we seen the Modern Prometheus translated so earnestly on the big screen" and "If you're a fan of the original story or just in the mood for some stellar storytelling, give this one a shot.

"[5] Gareth Jones, writing for Dread Central, gave the film four and a half stars, writing, "Melodramatic at turns, Bernard Rose's Frankenstein is nonetheless a remarkably affecting piece of filmmaking sporting some wince-inducing gore and extreme violence.
