This adaptation of Mary Shelley's Frankenstein is doggedly faithful to its source. Dr. Frankenstein's synthetic monster speaks, aspires to intellectual achievements, and begins descending into insanity and murder against its will. As in the Shelley original, both Dr. Frankenstein and his creation are left to die on an arctic ice flow, a fitting punishment for dabbling in God's domain. (Originally made for British TV in 1982)
