Religion Fears ‘Victor Frankenstein’ Experiments (Clip)
We have a new clip from Twentieth Century Fox’s own version of Frankenstein, based on the 1818 Marry Shelley novel, which is being resurrected this Thanksgiving (November 25th, 2015).
In this footage from Victor Frankenstein, James McAvoy has a candid chat with a religious figure who appears fearful that Victor’s experiments could have an adverse effect on his beliefs.
Harry Potter, Horns and The Woman In Black‘s Daniel Radcliffe stars as the newest Igor, the hunchback assistant to Dr. Frankenstein.
“Radical scientist Victor Frankenstein (James McAvoy) and his equally brilliant protégé Igor Strausman (Daniel Radcliffe) share a noble vision of aiding humanity through their groundbreaking research into immortality. But Victor’s experiments go too far, and his obsession has horrifying consequences. Only Igor can bring his friend back from the brink of madness and save him from his monstrous creation. ”
Victor Frankenstein, directed by Paul McGuigan, also stars Mark Gatiss, Jessica Brown Findlay and Andrew Scott.
