| Summary |
From King Kong to Avatar, from Star Wars to The Lord of the Rings, movie creatures have never been more popular as they are today. Yet the art of creating monsters for the big screen is as old as cinema itself. THE FRANKENSTEIN COMPLEX explores a century of cinematic thrills and wonders, focusing on the relationship between movie monsters and their makers like modern Frankensteins, special effects wizards who create life out of raw material and sheer vision. This documentary interviews the greatest living artists in the genre and features exclusive footage from classics like Robocop and Jurassic Park. |
