Frankenstein - The Criterion Collection (4K Ultra HD + Blu-ray)

Frankenstein is presented here in a The Criterion Collection 4K Ultra HD + Blu-ray Special Edition release. Directed by Guillermo del Toro and based on Mary Shelley’s classic novel, the film stars Oscar Isaac as Victor Frankenstein and Jacob Elordi as the Creature, reframing the story through the emotional and destructive bond between creator and creation. Del Toro’s version approaches the Frankenstein myth as a gothic drama about fathers, sons, obsession, trauma, and the blurred line between man and monster. The cast also includes Mia Goth, Christoph Waltz, Felix Kammerer, and Charles Dance. This Criterion special edition includes both the theatrical version of the film and Frankenstein: The Reborn Cut, a new 158-minute extended director’s cut. The set includes two 4K UHD discs and two Blu-ray discs, with the films presented in Dolby Vision HDR and Dolby Atmos audio.
