The Frankenstein Theory
- Horror
- Science Fiction
When he is suspended from his university job for his outlandish ideas, Professor John Venkenheim 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, in fact, 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...a nightmare from which there is no waking.
The Frankenstein Theory is a 2013 horror-sci-fi film that reimagines Mary Shelley's classic novel as fact rather than fiction. When a suspended professor leads a documentary crew to the Arctic to prove Frankenstein was real, they uncover a terrifying truth in the frozen wilderness.
