Description
by Mariah Lee Squires & S.W. Jones | directed by Shana Bestock
The year is 1938. Dr. Lawrence Walton, direct descendant of Capt. Robert Walton, has acquired his ancestor’s collected writings; the very letters and journal entries that inspired Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein: A Modern Prometheus, detailing the plight of Victor Frankenstein and his uncontrollable, murderous Creature. Dr. Walton, with the assistance of his wife, Minnie, is determined to rectify the calamitous failures of Frankenstein’s original experiment using modern science and a simple concept… he will tame his Creature by re-animating a female corpse.
