Not deserving of the hate

The Frankenstein Theory is a sequel to the book and not any of the movie adaptations. Jonathan, an obsessed scholar who mirrors the original Antagonist Victor Frankenstein, leads an exposition into northern Canada in search of The Creature.

There have probably been a hundred Frankenstein movies, but this one is a love letter to the original story. If you've read the book (and you should, it's probably the best Science Fiction book ever written.) you will see that they've done their homework. That said there is some simple exposition in the beginning to explain what is at stake, and more about halfway through to raise the stakes.

Technically the movie is much more watchable than other found footage movies, I'm looking at you Paranormal Activity. There is very little shaky cam, and you aren't going to get sick halfway through. The acting is mostly fair with a stand out in Timothy V. Murphy as their guide Carl.

I liked how the story unfolded, good build up to the ending. By no means is this "art" but it's a good, entertaining effort.

Should be the Yawn-enstein theory...

Welcome to the best way of wasting 87 minutes that you will surely never, ever get back in any possible way. This movie was horrible and just lacked any chance of ever being interesting.

The movie is sort of a pseudo-documentary, but the problem is that the movie never manages to take off, and just heads ahead in a speed that is not even a trot. The movie takes forever to get nowhere, and if you don't die from boredom along the ride, you might just die from the absolute sheer lack of purpose there is to the movie.

Essentially, this is just a bunch of people sitting around in various locations and discussing rather pointless and uninteresting things, in regards of Mary Shelley and the Frankenstein myth.

This is without a doubt one of the worst movies I have ever had to suffer through, and I wouldn't wish this upon anything. So a word of warning, you should have an excessive interesting in the Frankenstein myth or have some particular connection to any of the actors or actresses in the movie (or possibly even the director) to find any kind of enjoyment and amusement in this movie.

This was suffering to sit through, to say the least.

KICKING IT WITH FRANKENSTEIN

John Venkenheim (Kris Lemche) believes Frankenstein is alive and well and living in the Arctic. He hires a seasoned film crew who are skilled in the art of "Wet Willies" but know nothing about camping or Arctic survival. On the way up to the site, they stop to interview a paranoid meth head who claims to have seen the monster. For me this was the highlight of the film. They hire a guide (Timothy V. Murphy) and go off into the wilderness. If you want to see the monster feel free to fast forward until there is about 8 minutes left in the movie.

I loved the idea, but the found footage execution was a disaster. Kris Lemche was either wrong for the part or is role was poorly written. The rift with the wife? What was that about? There is an excessive amount of F-bombs in the film used as a substitute for decent dialogue. I think when the guide said, "I ain't no actor or nothing" he hit the nail on the head for this film. Not the worse found footage film out there. Nothing more than a cheap rental at best.

Parental Guide: F-bombs. No sex or nudity.
