Towards the end of last year, two films were premiered that revived famous horror monsters from Universal Studios. Following Count Dracula and Frankenstein's monster, another iconic creation that fascinated audiences in the 1930s returned to cinemas within a few days. The titular protagonist of the provocative American film 'Bride!' has undergone a radical transformation.

The motif of 'Frankenstein's bride' is present in Mary Shelley's original 1818 novel, where Dr. Frankenstein realizes in time that creating another monster might result in a being 'ten thousand times worse than her kind,' leading him to tear apart his creation before it reaches completion. The question of how the story would further develop with this character has intrigued not only writers but also filmmakers. Four years after the classic horror film 'Frankenstein' (1931), director James Whale created its sequel 'Bride of Frankenstein,' which was even more inventive and heretical than its predecessor.

Monsters in gangster Chicago serve as a backdrop for this new interpretation, suggesting a blend of horror and crime genres that challenges traditional narratives about monsters and their origins. This modern retelling explores deeper themes of identity and morality, as the characters confront the legacies of their monstrous predecessors while also carving out their own identities in a changing world.
