In the shadowy gothic world of 19th-century Europe, brilliant but egotistical surgeon Victor Frankenstein (Oscar Isaac) becomes obsessed with conquering death. Through forbidden science and lightning-fueled ambition, he creates life from the dead — only to birth a being of profound loneliness and rage.

Jacob Elordi delivers a spellbinding, physically transformative performance as The Creature, a tragic figure yearning for connection yet rejected by society and his creator.
Mia Goth shines in dual roles as the loving Elizabeth Lavenza and Victor’s late mother Claire, while Christoph Waltz brings chilling intensity as the enigmatic Henrich Harlander. Supporting cast includes Felix Kammerer, Charles Dance, Lars Mikkelsen, and young Christian Convery as little Victor.

Directed by visionary Guillermo del Toro, this lavish Netflix adaptation of Mary Shelley’s classic explores themes of hubris, humanity, and what it truly means to be a monster. Stunning production design, haunting makeup, and emotional depth make it a gothic masterpiece.
From icy Arctic chases to candlelit laboratories, every frame pulses with del Toro’s signature magic. A tale of creation, abandonment, and revenge that will electrify your soul.
