Depraved

Granted, as an avid horror fan, of course I sat down to watch this 2019 movie titled "Depraved". Sure, I didn't know what the movie was about prior to getting the chance to sit down and watch it. But still, being a horror movie is more than sufficient to get my attention.

While "Depraved" was watchable, it was a movie that just somewhat felt sort of unnecessary, as the "Frankenstein" theme has been over-used in the horror genre already, and "Depraved" didn't really offer anything overly new or innovative to the genre.

Think of this as a modernized take on Mary Shelley's "Frankenstein", just aimed at a young audience of today's age.

This movie was actually more of a drama than it was a horror movie, which was a shame.

It should be said that actor Alex Breaux, playing Adam, was actually putting on a great performance and he was solely carrying the majority of the movie alone with his performance.

I managed to sit through "Depraved", but I can't claim that I was impressed, nor was I more than adequately entertained. As such, my rating of "Depraved" lands on a mediocre five out of ten stars. One can only watch so many re-inventions of "Frankenstein" before it starts to wear thin.

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.

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.

Meh...Super B movie...Very low budget, and it shows...acting is so so..Nothing special here

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.
