Description
Dr. Frankenstein's dark alchemy brings a monster to life one fateful day. His form is a hulking mass of dead body parts, his appearance wild and ghoulish. This is a nightmarish creature, frightening and bizarre. He is capable of violent and merciless acts. And yet, the creature's deepest desire is all too human: to be loved. He asks the Doctor for a companion, but Frankenstein dashes his hopes for a mate. The creature goes on a murderous rampage, his pain propelling a passionate quest for vengeance. One after another, Dr. Frankenstein's family and friends are attacked and ruthlessly killed. More lives are endangered and the creature is at large, nowhere to be found. No one but the Doctor knows what a horrifying menace is lurking. No one but the Doctor knows what it really wants.
