“Ridiculous as it may sound, I see it as a biography of these characters. In my movie, it is about the lineage of familial pain.”—Guillermo del Toro
“A family drama as much as it is a creature feature.”—Brent Lang, Variety
Oscar-winning director Guillermo del Toro adapts Mary Shelley's classic tale of Victor Frankenstein, a brilliant but egotistical scientist who brings a creature to life in a monstrous experiment that ultimately leads to the undoing of both the creator and his tragic creation.
