Frankenstein in Film

The video I watched was found on youtube, called "Mary Shelley's Frankenstein - Frankenstein".

In this video there are two sections, both being somewhat different from each other.

In the first part we see a very dingy, dark and eerie looking labratory with special effects like fake lightning. It has a very hectic feeling and plays very heavy music which gives this interperetation of Frankenstein a more modern feel. The man meant to be victor is also pictured MUCH differently then he was in the book. He's wearing no shirt and is rugged look with longer blonde hair, showing a very different idea of how to perceive the character. The actual creating of the monster is actually fairly accurate to the book, with Victor realizing afterwards what he has done and that there will be consequences to that. When the monster comes out he looks almost like a newborn only with cuts (and the age difference). He is nude and slimy and cannot stand at all. He grabs and feels around, holds onto Victor and stumbles, frequently pulling Victor down with him. A difference between this and the book of Frankenstein is that the creator at least helps the monster up to his feet and tries to help him.

In the second part of the video it's all rather generic and meaningless until the very end. After the show that Victor and Frankenstein put on is a perfect example of how Frankenstein wasn't accepted and was shunned for his differences. The result from the audiences behavior and his humiliation is that he gets defensive and violent, resorting to the only way that he knows how to deal with those feelings.
