A scientist dreams of creating life. He steals corpses from cemeteries, dissects them, and sews their parts together to form a being similar to a man, but the result will be a monster who, feeling accepted by neither his creator nor other people, kills everyone he encounters. Among his victims will be a child and the scientist's wife. First cinematic adaptation of Mary Shelley's famous story with a simply exceptional Boris Karloff. A classic black-and-white horror film not to be missed.
