The Frankenstein Theory
Available on Philo
What if the most chilling novel of all time was actually based on a true account of a horrific experiment gone awry? When John Venkenheim (Kris Lemche of GINGER SNAPS, FINAL DESTINATION 3) is suspended from his university job for his outlandish ideas, he leads a documentary film crew to the rim of the Arctic Circle in a desperate effort to vindicate his academic reputation. His theory: Mary Shelley's ghastly story, "Frankenstein," is a work of non-fiction disguised as fantasy. In the vast, frozen wilderness, Venkenheim and his team search for the legendary monster, a creature mired in mystery and drenched in blood. What they find is an unspeakable truth more terrifying than any fiction. From the filmmakers behind THE LAST EXORCISM, and costarring Joe Egender (TV’s ALCATRAZ), Timothy V. Murphy (NATIONAL TREASURE: BOOK OF SECRETS), and Eric Zuckerman (HITCH, WHAT HAPPENS IN VEGAS).
