Pretty interesting so far. It tackles the idea that Victor Frankenstein was a very unreliable narrator. I'm reminded somewhat of the Hammer Frankenstein films, where a cold-hearted Victor Frankenstein is the real monster. Here, the novel is from the creature's perspective, in first person, but there's a twist to the character in that the creature has a name and a past life.

Freaking awesome book!!
I want this book badly, but the 30 plus dollar price tag has kept it out of my reach for the time being. What exactly does it cover-the movies shown and/or background to the show from WOR9? I saw Fright Night many times back in the 80s when i would stay overnight at friends or at my aunt's who had cable. Always showed a great eclectic assortment of flicks!
