Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein in 4K Drops to a New Low Price in The Criterion Collection Sale

Guillermo del Toro's take on Frankenstein was a long time coming. The director had been open about his interest in the infamous monster since he was still knee-deep in the Hellboy franchise. When del Toro's Frankenstein finally came out, IGN gave the movie a glowing 9 out of 10 review.

You can watch it anytime on Netflix, but it's too good of a movie to stay on streaming forever. Thankfully, Frankenstein joined the Criterion Collection this past October. It's only been out for a couple of weeks, but thanks to Criterion's big November sale, you can already get Frankenstein's Criterion edition for 50% off from now until December 7.

The cover art is a beautiful Baroque-style painting that captures the tragic side of the movie with soft brush strokes. All formats of the film feature the same cover, so the difference in prices is just about the quality of video and additional features. With the 50% discount going on now, all editions of this movie are now at their lowest-ever prices.

"Some of us have been waiting 20 years for Guillermo del Toro’s Frankenstein – in fact, I coulda sworn I even saw GDT’s actual drawings in Victor’s papers at one point!? – and it does not disappoint. The filmmaker puts all of his skills to bear in this spin on the Mary Shelley story as he goes for a tale of tragedy, romance, and redemption rather than a straight horror flick. Which isn’t to say that there isn’t plenty of gore or creepy moments, but that’s the trimmings of this film, as blood-red as they are.
