I found this last night after watching a documentary on American Horror Movies. Its the first Frankenstein movie ever made by Edison Studios in 1910. What is interesting is at the end of the movie, the Creature sees himself in the mirror, loathes himself, and disappears, only leaving his reflection behind. Victor runs into the room and sees himself reflected in the mirror as the Creature. What would the psychoanalysts say about that? :)
A weekly conversation between 12 graduate students using Mary Shelley's "Frankenstein" and its model of monstrous hybridity to explore the equally monstrous, equally hybrid field of literary theory. Be afraid. Be very afraid.
How cool is this!
