Frankenstein's creature

Detto anche: Frankenstein's monster, the Creature

LibriAltroScienza finita maleDal 1500 al 1899

Frankenstein's creature is not a zombie, but histories of the zombie cite Shelley's 1818 novel as a precursor because it treats resurrection as a scientific process. Lovecraft's Herbert West serial was reportedly written as a parody of it. The 1931 film replaced the novel's eloquent creature with a mute one in Jack Pierce's makeup.1 2 3
