Depraved

I nearly didn't watch this because of the title and the poster artwork. I just presumed it would be a cheap and nasty horror flick. But it's a really good reworking of the Frankenstein story and quite poignant in parts. The characters are well rounded and you actually do care about them. It has a good script though there are parts that seem rushed or out of character towards the end. I thoroughly enjoyed it and was glad I took the trouble to give it a go.

A reimagining of Shelly's Frankenstein and in many ways closer to the spirit of the book than any modern interpretation. Problem is, this film takes a very long time to develop. I read the synopsis and thought it would be interesting, and it is, but kind of dull partly because it's so close to Shelly's gothic masterpiece. The underlying message of the film has also been visited so many times that it felt over familiar. I was disappointed that with such a prolonged build up the action was strangely censored. Considering the grotesque nature of the back story it seemed odd to not show the murders. Weirdly feel good, not particularly horrible, could of been better than it was.

Not bad... I watched this without reading the description or watching the trailer and I think that really made it better. I enjoyed the cinematography (9/10) and the modern take on a classic storyline, I also liked the subtle dig on the pharmaceutical industry. Acting/Script (7/10) was lacking in certain areas but was better than average overall.

Before watching Depraved (what a strange and stupid title for this movie) I didn't think we really needed another Frankenstein movie, I mean that story has been done over and over again so what's the point? Unless you make it a gem I don't really see the point of it. Now, after watching it, I can say it wasn't the worst copy of this classis story and that's mostly due to Alex Breaux who did a great job playing his character. All in all it isn't a bad movie, I liked it more than my wife, but it's just not a refreshing story.

...not a horror movie IMO bit a very decent scifi fantasy type film. It's going to be good as long as you are not expecting a true horror flick.
