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.
