Passion, obsession and horror combine to recreate the most terrifying and shattering story of all time – Mary Shelley's FRANKENSTEIN.

It is the late eighteenth century. After the death of his beloved mother, young Victor Frankenstein (Kenneth Branagh – Hamlet) leaves his father and Elizabeth, the adopted sister he passionately loves (Helena Bonham Carter – Mighty Aphrodite), to attend university. Here he becomes obsessed with the teachings of Professor Walman (John Cleese – A Fish Called Wanda) who believes that living creatures can actually be created from dead matter.

One electrifying night, Frankenstein's efforts are rewarded as his Creature (Robert De Niro – Heat) struggles to life. Alone, despised and driven by a rage of emotional agony, it sets off to find it's maker... And so begins the nightmare that will engulf Victor Frankenstein...
