Mary Shelley's original 'Frankenstein' novel is very different from how we view the famous Monster in today's culture. The look and identity of the Creature was completely reinvented in this 1931 classic.

Frankenstein is a 1931 American Gothic pre-Code science fiction horror film directed by James Whale, produced by Carl Laemmle Jr., and adapted from a 1927 play by Peggy Webling, which in turn was based on Mary Shelley's 1818 novel Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus. The Webling play was adapted by John L. Balderston and the screenplay written by Francis Edward Faragoh and Garrett Fort, with uncredited contributions from Robert Florey and John Russell.
