The first trailer is out for Victor Frankenstein starring James McAvoy and Danielle Radcliffe and it looks awful. It is another take on the classic and modernized to like sh!t. When a tale is a scary enough on its own, it doesn’t need to be CGIed to max to tell it. This movie looks like it is more about the visuals than the legendary story. It’s like hey were making a movie that will work great in 3D, get two of the biggest stars to act in it and it will be a hit. I for one say, “no,” and I hope you join me by boycotting this movie on November 25th.
We need to stop the overuse of CGI and bring it back to the good old days of scary creatures that made you lose sleep for several nights. Not a movie that makes you forget how scary it was by the time you get to your car. Enough is enough.
I am not saying that CGI is bad, I am just saying that the overuse of is horrendous.
They need to start making movies like they did when they made The Cat and The Canary. The classic thriller is available from Cheezy Flicks for a mere $4. That is a lot cheaper than going to see Victor Frankenstein in theaters, a whole lot cheaper.
Boycott a movie only because it is not filmed for your personal taste is just plain stupid. And Victor Frankenstein is not an adaptation of your beloved horror classic, they have IGOR in it. If you cannot be open minded to a new story, it is totally fine. But to bash a movie you have not seen and have no knowledge of what is about is not cool, man.
