Plot Details

The movie is loosely based on Mary Shelly’s gothic 1818 novel Frankenstein. At its core, the film will tell the viewers the tale of “a misunderstood teenager and her high school crush, who happens to be a handsome corpse.”

In a strange turn of events, Lisa Swallows will breathe life into a corpse that dates back to the Victorian Era. From here on, she will embark on a unique journey. Together, they will explore a world unready for their romance.

Several problems will come as obstacles in their journey, but with feelings of true love for each other, they will prove unbreakable. One of the most complex challenges will be unearthing missing body parts. It will be interesting to discover how the teenage girl tries to fix the corpse and morph it into a perfect man by using only a broken tanning machine in her garage.
