Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The Frankenstein Theory is a 2013 found-footage film distributed by Image Entertainment.What if the most chilling novel of all time was actually based on a true account of a horrific experiment gone awry? When he is suspended from his university job for his outlandish ideas, Professor John Venkenheim leads a documentary film crew to the rim of the Arctic Circle in a desperate effort to vindicate his academic reputation. His theory: Mary Shelley's ghastly story, Frankenstein is, in fact, a work of non-fiction disguised as fantasy. In the vast, frozen wilderness, Venkenheim and his team search for the legendary monster, a creature mired in mystery and drenched in blood. What they find is an unspeakable truth more terrifying than any fiction...a nightmare from which there is no waking.

comment
Adaptational Villainy: This interpretation of Frankenstein's monster is less sympathetic and much more willing to kill than the one in the novel, and has developed a strong hatred for humanity. Justified, as the film states that Mary Shelley's Frankenstein was inspired by this monster, rather than the other way around.

comment
Conspiracy Kitchen Sink: Johann Venkenheim, the ancestor of Professor Jonathan Venkenheim and inspiration of Dr. Victor Frankenstein, was working with the Illuminati to discover the secret of life, with only Johann succeeding. Unfortunately for his descendants, Johann destroyed all of his notes, though this is probably for the best in hindsight.

Covers Always Lie: Instead of a blue skinned stitched together zombie type creature we see on the cover, the monster looks more like a large Neanderthal draped in furs.
