A quick review of The Frankenstein Theory: The found footage genre is something I enjoy, and it's because I think there is great potential in it for amazing horror films, but more often than not they fall flat because of really poor acting. My best recommendation for this movie comes from the solid acting, and anybody who says different is just being overtly tough on the film; there are no points where I feel embarrassed for the actors, or laugh inappropriately. Of course there's a little humour tossed around because well, it's a film about a guy who believes Mary Shelley's Frankenstein was based on a real event that went terribly wrong, and he leads an expedition up around the Arctic Circle to try to locate the Frankenstein 'monster'. Naturally there are some fun bits. However, the dramatic portions are genuinely tense. Of course there are interview pieces, and things like that, but it makes sense- it's a mockumentary. The only thing that wasn't so great was the monster itself. It could have been a little different, but I was still pretty gripped around the end when we finally get a real look at him, and the havoc breaks loose. It's not a great movie, but I enjoyed it. I especially liked the whole premise, as well as the main actor who played Venkenhein, and the always charismatic Timothy V. Murphy. 6 out of 10.

The Frankenstein Theory is another horror film made in the style of a faux documentary. Basically, a film crew follows a Professor around while he tries to redeem himself after being fired from his job. I know I say this a lot, but this movie started out extremely slow. Probably one of the slowest found footage horrors I've ever seen all the way through. I can't even really critique what happened in the first hour because I'm pretty sure my brain shut off. It starts to finally pick up when they're out camping in the snow and even then, it's really the last 15 minutes or so that are interesting. The ending was a little creepy, but I don't know if it's worth watching an hour of film that's boring, just to get to a few minutes of entertainment. I would definitely wait till this movie is available on Redbox or streaming through Netflix. But I don't suggest renting it at full price on VOD or you will be majorly disappointed.

I just watched The Frankenstein Theory on Netflix, and I was remarkably impressed. I would personally rank it amongst my top five found-footage films, alongside The Blair Witch Project, V/H/S, Grave Encounters, and Devil's Pass. I particularly loved the random interjection of quirky humor and personality flaws -- something which seems to be a rarity in this genre nowadays. It boosted the suspension of disbelief and the gave the movie some added smarts. I genuinely felt as if I was following ordinary people on an impromptu expedition rather than underpaid actors reading from a B-movie script. I also think the unusual choice of location was sufficiently compelling given the story's mythological basis (a la Devil's Pass and The Blair Witch Project). Although, the movie didn't pick up pace until the end, I enjoyed the character development. It added to the documentary's credibility and curiosity, rather than the typical detachment that I often experience with these types of films. My only disappointment was the final scene. It was almost too predictable. Maybe the director ran out of ideas? Still, that's a minor criticism given the overall production value. Highly recommended for anybody that is looking for a suspenseful late night sci-fi flick and is willing to tread off the beaten path of Paranormal Activity lookalikes.

I found out about this movie in Fangoria Magazine and even though "The Video Eye of Dr. Cyclops" only gave this movie 1 1/2 "eyeballs" out of 5, I saw it on Netflix and decided to give it a try because it was a brand new take on the Frankenstein story. I figured it would be too "Blair Witch" for me but jumped in anyway and AM SO GLAD I DID. While it does have that "lets make a documentary" essence that made "Blair Witch" a blockbuster (spurning a whole lot of similar movies that sucked)and which now the "Paranormal Activity" movies have brought back to life, I was instantly captured from the first sentence. I was particularly taken by the intelligence of this film. The character of Dr. Jonathan Venkenhein (which is very reminiscent of how "Frankenstein" sounds) starts right out by telling the camera that it was HIS family that created the monster and that he believes it is still alive and wants to go on an expedition to find it. This film is not for you if you're looking for lots of gore, but in this case I think less is more. Jonathan has researched his family archives and put together theories his entire life that convinced me in the first 5 minutes of the film that I was all in and would have gone with him in a second. While the info he gives in the beginning is rather abundant and (more importantly) believable, he continues to divulge more information as the expedition goes on keeping it interesting. I highly recommend it!

Some brain farts should just waft away in the wind. An hour and a half of pointless yammering. The writers ripped off Blair Witch but didn't have any idea of how plot points work or how to create any kind of atmosphere. The script is so poorly written and phlegmatically directed I wonder if the director ever made it past the craft service table. The lame excuse of being low budget is wearing out its welcome. If you don't have enough money to film what you're written - don't. The film isn't good, it's really terrible and to present this to an audience as entertainment is criminal. This is not a case of subjectivity. Some films are just terrible. Hardly any of the people in the making of this presentation knew what they were doing. Learn your damn craft or find something else to do! It's so boring! This film is perfect for those who suffer from Attention Surplus Disorder. I was expecting bad, but this went light years beyond awful. Plus you never get a nice view of the tundra! I can't honestly recommend this film as it's not scary and quite boring. To have characters talk so much about nothing or mapping out the narrative is ludicrous and wears on an audience. How do these films ever get released? It is a riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma.

I thought the movie was great! It was more suspenseful than your average horror but that's what made it great, thought provoking edge of your seat ride. The story had a little bit of everything... your classic horror, new age raw "documentary style"(which I enjoy), enough action to keep you into it, and little jokes, I found amusing throughout. Also, I thought it was shot really well. Plus I thought the acting was up to par and they kept me believing they were trapped in an isolated part of the Arctic. I also liked the fact you really never saw the "monster" except for that split second right at the end. A must see for Frankenstein and found footage film fans!

I can't believe how stupid this is. The whole thing feels like it takes long hours to get through. This is a huge bore. I didn't see any suspense or thriller in it. It is really really slow and there is almost NO entertainment at all. The only thing going for it are a few of the settings in the snow but who really cares at all. The filmmakers obviously thought they could try to use the name Frankenstein to keep its interest but it doesn't work. It might've worked maybe but the way this is made is too lame, boring and dumb. It's too bad this was made with no imagination. At the end I didn't even see the monster and I don't care if they died, which was lame too because they die off-screen. This so-called movie only makes you feel frustrated and betrayed. A disaster.

Honestly never got the "story" to this movie. I almost turned it off in the beginning during a drawn out 'interview' stage, but decided to give it a little while longer... reached to turn it off again due to irritation at a relationship based on a woman who apparently despises her boyfriend, only around to yell at him in front of others, then talk behind his back and berate him... yet, upon heading out to get a drink, I returned, it was still on and watched some more. It turned out to be the worst thing I have watched this year, for sure. Possible the worst I have watched in the past couple years (nothing comes to mind that can out-rank it in crappiness). Seriously thinking the 10 * ratings that go into music and other details (I do not even remember music other than one song toward the end; and I will admit it was not bad... only reason I did not balk at being made to give 1 star and no 0 stars available) are made by people associated with the film, especially when there is only ONE review made by them on the accounts. lol
