    Wake Me Up When It's Over

    One to dodge people.

    Showed promise with the initial premise - poorly executed.

    The scenery is bland, repetitive and brings you down.

    The actors are mostly poor but at least the lead lady is trying to do something.

    It's a B level horror/drama that is lower than you would expect from any TV series/film production.

    We all love the horror story, Frankenstein, but this is one horror of a story that you'll soon wish to forget. Nothing happens!

    Avoid, unless you are struggling to sleep.

    Not interesting

    Too many scenes destroyed by dark filming where you can't see characters and even though it's based on real people there is nothing redeeming about these two. It's not suspenseful in the least more depressing than anything. Granted Mary Shelley lived a very depressed life. I thought that this film would be more about her visions of the actual Frankenstein characters from her book. Instead it was a constant argument between Percy and Mary.

    The acting was very good though. Too bad there wasn't a better script. Has a lot of potential.

    Don't Bother

    Very dull and the actors DO NOT match the characters they are playing. Who did their auditions? Another one of those that could have been really good but here we go again with total rubbish!!!!! If you want to see a good movie about Mary Shelley check out "Gothic"!! It is an older movie 1986 but you will love it.

    Waste of time

    WTF. Depressing and dull. It's definitely not horror.

    Ugh annoying, boring medieval nonsense

    I don't know what the director achieved by giving us this garbage. Saw it on Shudder and it was a cold winter afternoon, I almost feel asleep through this which is very difficult if you're watching a supposed horror movie. The main guys are particularly bad actor and really average lookers not worthy of becoming actors , the female lead is atleast better looking to help you pass this nonsense. Overall nothing interesting or worth, expected better from Shudder sorry
