Same reason you exist - take up some time with mindless entertainment. Same misshapen monster without a clue, same sad burnout ending...somehow, though, the movie is poignant and you just come out pathetic. I guess that's the difference between art and life.

and it's a shame how different the movie looks to the book

@sciencemonster Actually, alot of these characteristics that we now associate with Frankenstein were slowly added, one by one, by various plays based off the original. the first movie adaptation, and finally cemented with the boris karloff version we all know and love. there's a very interesting book called Frankenstein:A cultural history by Susan Tyler Hitchcock that goes into Dr. Frankenstein (and his monster's) evolution.

I just finished the book. It was great. This however, looks like crap. Has nothing to do with the real story.
We're reading this in English. ...Still trying to figure out where the "IT'S ALIVE. IT'S ALIIVVEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!" crap came from -_-

@Ghostgirl777 The car chase, the angst-ridden teenagers, and the 'it's alive' were all added by the screenwriter. Hollywood, what can you say? It sells.

A true pity the film is such a poor adaptation of the book, a true work of genius.
1-Victor Frankenstein is not mad, he was obsessed with the idea of creating life from death, and he fled in horror after seeing what he had created, he didn't scream in a maddened joy! And he was alone at that time!

@ProyectMooneJazzers School seems to start earlier every year - or are kids putting off winter recess reading longer and longer?
Why are you harping on the movie? If James Whale wanted to make a turgid, repressed, Victorian movie out of a turgid, repressed, Victorian book he would have worked in TV. It's a monster movie, ferchrissakes. Grow up.

@sciencemonster I see you have an obsession with kids, by looking at your comment, I can see your a 40 year old virgin without a wife.
It is true that the book is way much different to the movie, I have seen the movie, and I have read the book. If you cannot communicate like a human, and answer propoerly to people who have questions about this movie then I suggest you fuck off from youtube and go live on in your basement. Foreveralone, bloody idiot.

@cherdilboy Ah, yes, I have an obsession with kids. That is why when school starts and I get my reading assignment, I hunt YouTube for my frankenstein trailer and make inane comments.
I brought up _my_ children to appreciate all kinds of culture, but especially fine old classic monster movies, and not to disparage other people's culture. Why, I even sent one of my boys to the Netherlands for the summer when he was 14. He brought back soap in the shape of a penis. How lovely Amsterdam must be!
