>>18978984It's deliberately ambiguous (because Victor didn't want anybody else to attempt making another monster), but the monster had to be scaled up to eight feet tall to construct all the intricate parts (as opposed to just stitching together functioning pieces from a corpse), plus the book only says he used corpses to study how life worked. Plus the bride was made on an island that wouldn't have had many corpses for him to get to.
Given he married alchemy with modern science, he might've grown and pieced together the parts.
>His description is very much like a corpse.Yeah, I can get that too, he's also been likened to miscarriages/newborns, which goes with the 'post-partum depression' theme of the book. Victor rejecting him and such.
So far only Junji Ito's done a really book-accurate rendition of him. Really good adaptation all around actually.
>>18978993Yeah, I think the uncanniness is hard to nail. CGI would look fake, and its hard to make it with practical effects. Very much something that looked beautiful still, but disgusting in motion.
>PoeI need to read more gothic literature.
>>18979051That's a lot of Loona.
