Who is this movie for? You have incredible dramatic actors, but the tone and make-up looks campy and goofy. It doesn’t feel like a scary horror movie; it looks too silly to take seriously. The previews are mostly just close-ups of Bale and Buckley with black shit on their faces. I also can’t imagine what the plot would be, besides making a female Frankenstein’s monster, and due to the above I can’t be bothered to find out why.

“I can’t imagine what the plot would be, besides making a female Frankenstein’s monster, and due to the above I can’t be bothered to find out why”

You do realize that making a female monster was a major plot point in the book, don’t you? Like, allllllll the way back to Mary Shelley, “the bride of Frankenstein” has been a reoccurring driver of the story even if she never fully came to life like the OG

Which is why it’s called, “Bride!” And not “The Bride of Frankenstein’s Monster” or something. Great. Who cares? So what if in this version scientists succeed in “making Frankenstein a bride”? It just doesn’t seem like the start of a gripping story to me. I can’t imagine caring what they would do or how the characters would feel. Frankenstein has been over explored and feels stale.
Okay, hipster. Got any substance under that snark?
I provided more substance than any preview for this movie
