Movie Info

Yet another incarnation of Mary Shelley's 1818 Frankenstein, this uneven spoof by Alain Jessua casts Victor Frankenstein as a cybernetics wizard who constructs his monster with a notable lack of aesthetic sense but invests him with great microprocessors, and the newly-minted ogre finds life rather lonely until he sees Frankenstein's lover and is smitten. In the meantime, the warped doctor has also created a lithesome female out of the sundry body parts of slain go-go dancers who went-went, and he falls in love with his creation. The original odd couples then flounder a little as director Jessua loses his grip on the story, and the cybernetic protagonist heads for Frankenstein's castle. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, Rovi

Audience Reviews for Frankenstein 90

Jul 11, 2011

This movie starts out being pretty dull, then it tries to be comedic, and lastly a more serious and romantic horror story. It actually isn't scary at all, there's no blood or gore, and the ending isn't at all like a horror movie. For some reason I liked this movie for a while, though, mostly in the middle and near the end. It could have been a great movie if they had ended it earlier, had more blood, and made the first couple scenes more exciting. Overall, it's just okay.
